On that assessment, how on earth did we kick 10 goals?

Or not lose by 15. It appears we only had 15 players after quarter time.Ā 

GawnĀ - had little influence and wanted to continue to tap the ball down to his feet where the swans win the clearances!šŸ¤”

Viney -Ā disappeared after first… fumbled too much and lost his feet often šŸ¤”

Oliver - inspirational and prolific… bloody champion… kept us in the match then wore the blood and bandages of a warrior Ā Ā ā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā­ļø

Petracca - injured before injuryā€¦šŸš‘ yes injured … but could have kicked four goals and his lack of confidence in goalkicking is very very odd 🤮

Jackson - head was elsewhere … ffs  … he’s a champion then he’s a spud  … no footy intelligence and fumbled šŸ„”šŸ„”šŸ„”

Brown - was absolutely useless … soft tonight šŸ„”šŸ„”šŸ„”šŸ„”

Langdon - disappeared after first… great start then went wider and wider ā­ļø

Spargo - disappeared after first… pushed aside easily … kicked one great pass and three absolute dogs šŸ’©

Brayshaw - limited by injury… love him but tonight was poor šŸ’©

Pickett - a total failure … omg lost total awareness and was chasing tails šŸ„”šŸ„”

May - one fateful mistake BUT overall was a champion Ā We would have been destroyed without him ā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā­ļø

Petty - seemingly no mistakes… bloody champion and gave 100%! ā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā­ļø

Fritsch - ten minute game … was dangerous but his one miss was very poor from 25 metres out ā­ļøā­ļø

Hunt - poor under pressure … but at least tackles and ran and did a lot very well Ā šŸ‘šŸ»

Neal-Bullen - tried but failed… EMBARRASSING AND JUST AWFUL … new captain fumbles šŸ„”šŸ„”šŸ„”šŸ„”šŸ„”šŸ„”6-star spud tonight award winnerĀ 

Harmes - disposal was poor and tried and failed and fumbled and looked confused šŸ’©

Hibberd - needed sick bed.. bloody gave 100% and won his battles ā­ļøā­ļøā­ļø

Sparrow - had little involvement … another NEARLY NIGHT … one good goal … he fumbles were costly šŸ„”

Salem - seemingly avoided pressure and looked unfit on occasion Ā strange to think he was nearly BOG in ā€œ21 GF … now could be dropped … terrible left foot helicopter kicks šŸ’©

Melksham - the bad Melkshy… from gold to dog-shizzen …. 3 costly missed shots when usually reliable Ā šŸ„”šŸ„”šŸ„”šŸ„”šŸ„”

Rivers - was rarely sighted- tried but failed but tried 🧐

Lever - couldn’t get involved-did his best šŸ‘šŸ»

O

I haven't seen a replay yet, just got home, but at the game live, it appeared buddy ran at May from a distance and May just put him on his [censored] with a solid bump. The umpire gives a free kick because buddy collapsed and we never really got that momentum back for a period longer than a few minutes after that.

Ā 

Gawn endlessĀ  bad decisionsĀ 

May carried the team

Petty is a champĀ 

Kossie is not Flash ..is not EddieĀ  Ā is not LJĀ  ,

Melk 2 vital missesĀ 

TracĀ  Dusty 80 %

Jackson left for home.

BBB 200cm 100kgs ragdollĀ 

Salem ok I guess

Sydney organised and committed

MFCĀ  can't stand pressureĀ 

Viney standard setting fumbles

Ollie can't fault him

Harmes round one 2023

Not harsh at all if we persist in playing a guy that gets 13 possesions and one lucky goal then good luck!

Spargo would have had 14 possies and 2 goals, if ANB could pass a footy 20 metres half accurately.

ANB and Melk tonight made Spargo look like Bobby Skilton.

Has Spargo ran over your cat? You have had him in the gun for a while. A lot poorer than him tonight.

Oliver - sore backĀ 

Had to carry the rest of them

Agree a lot were very very poor last night, but other than his good first quarter, he has been very poor for the last 4 games! OK answer me this, who would he get a game with if not with us? He might use the ball well, but is slow, doesnt get it enough, nor hit the scoreboard enough. Sorry but he was a lucky premiership player last year, but as an AFL standard forward just doesn't cut it for me. Just my opinion of course!

If thats a solid bump. The game is dead.

Spot on Mr.Leg. what about our second champion ruckman. Living off a quarter in a game nearly 12 months ago.Ā

And it wasn’t even a f$&@ing error!!

Did nobody here see the footage of Buddy taking a dive after receiving the lightest of elbows to his back?

Even the commentators said there was nothing in it.Ā 

I feel like I’m going insane reading so many comments about how May ā€œmade a mistakeā€.Ā 

He played a blinder, and as far as I’m concerned made ZERO mistakes.Ā

The real melksham.

Foolish once.

Fool us twice.

But now your out and I wouldn't give another year.

Got a few touches late in the game and couldn't kick straight fro 20 odd m out.

Limited fwd pressure ie tackles.

No goals....one tackle.

And Bbb ...one goal....zero tackles.

Kozzie....no Gail's one tackle.

No forward pressure from these blokes at all.

Just lazy. Sad with so much to gain.

Dogga played like Franklin....already checked out.

Thanks Oliver and May for caring.

At least when Charlie gets the ball he can deliver to a teammate - if you haven’t noticed one of greatest flaws when we play poorly is an inability to connect with our forwards - Spargo is one of the few that can do this well consistentlyĀ 

He isn’t perfect and I would love to see more penetration in his kicking but he will continue to play until we find others that are better at finding teammates in F50Ā 

Team seemed lethargic (Gastro?)

Trac plying hurt.

BBB- Create some space.

Kozzie- Where was he?

Team - find a target.

  • 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.Ā  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 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.
