There's the payback. But trac did need to tackle properly.

But good quarter and good to see the pies cheersquad have not much to cheer about

 

 

Regardless of whether we win or loose today if they keep up the intensity they’ve  shown so far it’s a big step forward

    Amazing what happens when a couple of your key talls finally stand up... Dogga & BBB

    Afl reserve is so yuck when we play Collingwood. Feel like I’m in a zoo.

    walk through and some stand behind the goals. I rather stand with Melbourne supporters than sit with ferals at Collingwood and Richmond games.


    Pretty good start, Oliver pretty much literally everywhere. Jackson getting back into it, great to see. A little too similar to last week with us going into the break with a lead, but oppo not capitalising. The Pies could and should have had a couple. 

    The difference will be how to come back from the break. We've absorbed a lot, so now it's time to make some hay.

    Sun is shining, it's glorious ☀️😍

    Their skills are good.
    Picking their way through our zone nicely.
    Similar to last years game.

    Can't praise Oliver enough.

    The ball to him is like a yo yo.

    Great for bbb to kick one and gets some confidence.

    Now don't drop off the intensity.


    We need to man up their spare at the back of stoppages 

    Dees warming to the task the longer the quarter went. Some good signs there. Maintain the efficiency, pressure and desire! BBB is backkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk! Jacko too! Turner great start.

    Certainly some heat in this. Hopefully some midfielders step up to help Oliver. 

    Our set up at contest seems to be a losing one again this week. Spilling out to pies players like it did swans last week.
    we look a bit lost ball in hand. Taking the wrong option often. Need to learn when not to roost but to weave through. Partly fitness issue

    • 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.
