Oliver's disposal inside 50 has been poor tonight, you're right.

That and always one too many handballs outside 50 when a long kick is the best option.

    Wow, Port ought to be flogged for effort since half time. Some of their chasing and defensive spread has been pathetic. 


    I'm not one to pot the insufficient intent rule, but that call against Gawn was plain incorrect.

    Oliver's game tonight has been a bit millionaire TBH. Everyone but him is just playing efficient forward moving handpass game. He is not on the same page, and we pay the price over and over.

    How do you get deliberate kicking towards your own goal?!

    This game is trash. 

    We haven't played that well at all.

    Just cause I was interested, in 2013 the Roos kept us to 28 points, our lowest score in that period although it was under Neil Craig. Admittedly they kicked 150 points against us but they also weren’t a prelim finalist the prior year. Just for ****z and gigs. 


    We're winning by 50 points having played 12 minutes of entertaining football

    Wow even Viney is doing the head-flick. That's poor, and the kick for goal got what it deserved.

    Still so much improvement in this team and we're undefeated after 4 rounds, beaten two of last year's preliminary finalists and only conceded 1 goal in 3 quarters and 11 minutes. Yet all the media will talk about is Carlton...

    To be fair Carlton's first 45 minutes are fire.

     

    Little cheapy there for Port.

    Think we've played some bruise free stuff this quarter 

    Seriously, was this team actually 2nd on the ladder 5 H&A games ago?

    Hinkley surely cannot survive this.

    • 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.
