    No change for me.

    But I can see why Bowey could be a potential omission for Rivers is need.

    Out BBB continued his woeful form.  Got outmarked again & again. In Tomlinson. Has to be an improvement.

    C’mon man. They’re still not kicking to his advantage. They continue to kick it on top of his head.

    Can’t see any changes.  
    Was very worried about JV7 when he went down though - thought he was concussed but clearly not.

    The 5 day break in to the Geelong game should be the main factor when evaluating changes.

    There’s at least an argument for Hibberd and/or Bowey and Bedford coming out this week with a guarantee of coming back the next week. Maybe even Sparrow as well. Or Ben Brown if we want to be really cautious.

    Although the more likely thing is they play and we see how everyone is going in a weeks time.

    I think it will be “No Change”

    Only change possible is   “in. Rivers   Out. Bowey” (he was pushed aside, overran it several times and didn’t look composed with the footy as he did in rounds 1-4. )

    its amazing what winning games of footy does. Lose today and Gawn foot turns out to be  more of a 6-8 week injury.

    In: Hunt or Rivers

    Time to play smart and think of this as two games. Adelaide and Geelong

    Rest Petracca perhaps. Bowey?

    I do think we wasted an opportunity with the North and Eagles game to strategically manage players

    Need a tall forward, that’s clear.

    Bowey is really struggling at the moment. Rivers might be a better option.

    +1 Rivers for Bowey, more in honour  of how Riv has been playing in the 2’s. Bowey can freshen up.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      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.
