The hyper-fixation on Melbourne's performance at the moment is weird. On Fox Footy they were analysing "defensive breakdowns" of when the Bulldogs kicked goals last week. I mean how else do teams ever kick goals if not for some level of defensive breakdown? We're being picked on now.

Jon Ralph just said that there is some significant good news on Tom McDonald a d there could be a big chance he plays comes finals.

Richo tonight said they were hopeful but it was a long shot. Be interested to hear what Ralph says.

I like it tbh. We're not irrelevant anymore.

    Every single club other than ours announces every player in the team. I personally don't need it but it not a bad touch I guess.


    Prime time… 

    Let’s rip them a new one….

    How frig'in embarrassing . . . Taylor and Hodge wondering around on the ground talking absolute siiiiite. Hodge walks like he's got a cricket bat up his clacker, and Taylor a goal post. And any chance wardrobe could organise suits that fit?

    See Gus warming up in the centre square - fingers crossed.

    Playing some midfield time tonight according to Goody and Richo.

    I think we can win tonight, and should, but gee I'm nervous, because we really need to signal a turn in form as turn towards finals. If we lose, we could drop to 6th, which will make things a little ugly.

    But that's all moot.

    We're gonna win tonight, because we're going to come out breathing fire. We have to. We'll want revenge for that game earlier in the year.

    Go Dees 🔥

    GO THE MIGHTY DEES!!!


    The dockers always love to go backwards to set up their forward counter.  You gotta be right up in their face most of the time to kill that.  No BS full zone defence this week.  Bring that and we're toast

    Melky Burnt......but it was a gettable shot.


     

    Richo is usually ok but seems to be barracking for the Dockers....Oh for an impartial competent commentary team.

    • 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.
