I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if we got rolled on Friday night. The GC game was really taxing and Max Gawn admitted it so. 6 day break makes it tough.

I won’t lose any sleep over an upset. We have won 9 games in a row, and we all know how long the season is.

Let's see how good our conditioning is post-Burgo then

    Puck that. Would rather drop the one against Port next week, than lose to this Scum.

    Can you imagine how [censored]-a-hoop the Bummers supporters would be if they got over the line against us? We owe it to the entire football world not to allow this.

    Given the sensitivity of the auto-censor, I'm quite surprised your nickname for Essendon got through unscathed.

    Mind you, if the Essendon equivalent of Demonland is equally as sensitive, it must drive them absolutely nuts every time they want to discuss arguably their best player ever in [censored] Reynolds.

    When we were rubbish we got smashed by the media weekly but didn't help us win....totally overrated as a motivator and a factor in who wins or loses!

    HERE YA GO DEMONLANDERS...... ENJOY LATEST FROM INJECTIONDON LAND

    1 We should have picked Oliver!

     2 My smoke alarm battery has just started beeping. The night has gone from bad to worse.

     

     3 Brayshaw 20 marks is embarrassing

     4 Their mids ran circles around is all night.

     5 Parish has lost his hunger.

     

     6 They are clearly the better side

    Their polish ball in hand miles ahead of us.

    66 inside 50’s their way to our 39. The fact we remained in touch despite the weight of ball they had fwd prob wouldn’t happen too often.

    Their mids flogged us really for possessions. Winning at the contest and using it far better around the ground. 30+ from both their wingers who are gut running machines both offensively and defensively

    Another random observation.

    Langdon time on ground 100%.
    For 30+ touches, a freak goal that ended us, and a zillion kms ran.

    We need to get fitter if we are going to get to that top echelon.

    Theirs
    Petracca 92%
    Oliver 88%
    Brayshaw 87%
    Viney 74%

    at one point in the third quarter this game was like that time when the Washington Generals scored a goal against the Harlem Globetrotters.

     

    To have a player like Oliver must be a luxury... Refuses to lose a contest.

     

    Our skills are deplorable. Our players are dumbasses. We have no structure. Our #1 ruckman offers nothing around the ground.  We're not getting much out of this season. At least I don't have to care anymore. Go Dons.

     

    we were absolutely woeful, and at no point did we really look like a real threat at all. we don’t run, lead or chase. We get out bodied all the time and most of our positive ball movement was a result of a Demon’s mistake or a lucky bounce. the scoreboard flattered us enormously. 

     

    In fairness I'd say that when we got that goal in front Melbourne's mids, and Oliver in particular , turned the wick right up and a few of our players , not necessarily mids, were found wanting under the blowtorch.

     

    McGrath finds his best role which is when he doesn't have the footy. What a waste of a number 1 pick

     

    i don't know about you guys but i'm going to stop thinking about this game and go have a squiz at the port board

    I liked this one the best.

    Melbourne’s wings make everyone’s half backs look stupid. They close down space really well

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
