Confident the longer deal on slightly less cash will allow Dogga to sign a 2-3 year deal and Gus gets 5 years on slightly higher coin than Trac & Clarry.

What a morning!

Over to you Gus & Dogga. 

 

...and yes i need to update my username lol.

I wonder what the figure is? Anyway some good news. 

My ‘money’ is on it being the same as Petracca - $900k a year. 

Serious unders really.

Will be interesting if there is a rider to increase as the cap increases - I assume all contracts will have these.

900k is far from unders on a 7 year contract

Woke up this morning and have just found out that my gas heater is stuffed and I am freezing cold , but strangely it feels like it is a most amazing day.

Reckon if we now snag Gus and Dogga in the not too distant future I could even handle the power going off.

Go DEES!


Go you good thing Clarry great news

Holy [censored]! This has honestly not only made my day but made my year!

 

 

As many have said he will go down as one of the all time great demons. You build entire game styles around players like clarry. What a time to be alive haha


Sensational news, just a fantastic player! 
Demons committing to longer deals for players, so certainty for both parties, players accept a little less that will help keep another decent player at the club.

Brilliant news and definitely our number 1 priority IMO - even though he's not out of contract until next year.

I'd love to be a fly on the wall in our list managers meetings.  I wonder if Clarry was always priority 1 in there eyes before focusing on AB and LJ or if maybe one of these two has confirmed some not so friendly news which has freed up more cash to get Claytons signature and lock him away.

Champion midfields are what wins flags.  Having two of the very best in Trac & Oliver locked away for years to come is going to see us at the pointy end of the ladder for a long time.

Wonderful work!

Oh ok, how much do you think the best player in the game should be on during his prime? 

We are giving more years so they will be happy on less money. You like competing for flags, yeah?

Best player in the AFL. I’ll fight anyone who disagrees. Well done Clarry. Forever a demon legend.

Gave me goosebumps!! So happy he has committed to the Dees for so long 

congrats to the club for getting this done ❤️💙

By signing now he takes all the 'fugazi' out of next year, his Free Agency year and everyone can just get on and play football.

I’d hang off updating user name until end of September- save you having to do it again

Also allows the club to establish a benchmark for Brayshaw and Jackson, with Trac and Clarry reasonably marking the top end of our salary model, hopefully there's cap left to offer both of them something like Clarry's salary minus x... to keep the team together.

 

Th best thing about this is it was so random. I mean no one was talking about Oliver, yes I know he wasn't out of contract this season but everyone is so focused on Angus and LJ and Melbourne just went boom this morning and dropped this. 

There is also no fan fare about it, no presser just an email. Now I bet today journos are rushing down to melbourne to speak to him. 

I reckon whoever sent out the email was pretty happy to be pressing send. 

It also says that Oliver has no issue what so ever playing under Goodwin and the stuff that was bought up about him in the off season. 

Well done Clayton.

  • 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.

  • 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.
