    Disgraceful but expected form those Muppets. You should respect that a player belongs to a team and they play for that team, not to f-ing show off for the soon to be wooden Spooners


    This is really pathetic. Our goal kicking will hurt us one day. You also can’t just keep going through the motions. West Coast have played with intensity and we haven’t. Another kick on the full as  I type.

    Any risk we can play?

    No. we don't know how to kick goals because we don't know how to play offensive football. 


    Clear mark to Fritta, then push in back. Umpire pays free kick… why not 50? Why not pay mark, is it because paying the in the back helps even out a lopsided free kick count??

    Meh this game sucks.

    We just struggle to put sides away when opportunity presents.

    One of those goal kicking yips days. 

    Way too many of those days so far for my liking. Really need to sort this up and demand Fritsch to stop being MIA for 80% of the matches.


    And there are the boos. One of the main reasons why i hate West Coast

    We should be absolutely belting the Eagles. They’re completely stuffed from Covid and ageing playing list. I don’t think people get how bad they are. Here’s some perspective.  The only team with a worse percentage than this Eagles team in the past 20 years is GWS in their first season at 46%. Even our worst year under Neeld we were 54%.

    To not be 60 points up at least by this stage is weak. We’re playing Hollywood footy today with players taking stupid shots and wanting highlight reel stuff instead of just doing the team thing.

    After that assy move by Gawn, Goodwin was shown fuming on the bench!

    We say all the right things when interviewed like 'we respect the opposition' etc. and then we have a VFL reserves quality team smack us for a quarter and a half.

    • 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?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      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.
