    Quarter Dees. Forward 50 pressure and extending attacks has been massive!

    I don't know if Cairns will have an effect on the Saints but if it does it will be in the second half.


    Can’t complain so far.

    The Saints came back a bit in the last ten minutes. They realised that the pressure style alone was not going to work against a team with such midfield silk, and started focusing on how they were going to move the ball rather than waiting for us to balls something up.

    Brayshaw BOG for mine so far.

    Kozzie went missing that quarter. 

    This is how picky we get, you still find reasons to get frustrated. We let the saints have more of the play in the 2nd half of that term. 

    Viney is fumbling, Gus got caught & I feel we should be more ahead by 35 points. 

    But apart from that it's been enjoyable to watch & it's nice to see us kick straight.

    Also the 3rd quarter is coming up. Usually our best

    Very good first half

    Great to see TMac playing well. It will be a big plus for us if he can find form

    Annoyed they have a sniff   I will on the dunnie all half time    bit nervous the saints have a blinder 3rd quarter.Max having a Barry crocker by his standards

    Saints were never going to lie down and die. 
    We are definitely a far superior team with ball in hand but Saints are plucky and they work hard. 
     

    Big third term coming up. 

    My first game with the “Army” and I’m smack bang in the middle of these crazy passionate lunatics. They’ve got me waving a huge-asss flag and I’m eyeing off the massive  TMac cardboard cutout. I figure the bearer of such has to go to the toilet sooner or later, right?😆

    GO DEEEEEES!!!

    MELB have conceded 9 goals in opening quarters in 2022 The fewest by any V/AFL side at this stage of a season since 1965 (GEEL & STK)

    • 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.
