Exactly why they should be watching

Are you watching this Goodwin?

Maybe watching but are there “learnings”?

Wrong in what way though THBT??

My gut feel tells me they MIGHT have gone too hard too early (built them up to a mad level of top end fitness) leaving many spent by the time we got to round 12ish.

Goodwin's poor player management in the second half of the season exacerbated this overkill pre-season prepping.

Big emphasis on 'might have' and pure speculation on my behalf.

Yeah I agree with this.

I think we left too much up to too few for too long. I also think we got our training loads wrong because the entire side looked flat at 3/4 time for the last 2 months of the year.

Max’s interview during the week alluded to the fatigue of the 2 seasons. No one was fresh when it mattered. We also played finals for 2 months before the big stuff began, and I think that just ground us down.

Depressing thinking the lions beat us

Amazing i50 by Myers to Hawkins.

If only we could do similar instead of long bombing to a pocket 

Watching the Dees all year I thought there may have been a rule change outlawing kicking to a forward target.

To make it hurt more

The Lions didn’t beat us, we did with our inaccuracy in the first half. Game should’ve been over at half time.

Not likely

They should be utterly embarrassed.

Cats pressure reminding me of ours in the lead up to last years GF

Reminds me of the Swans against us a few weeks back.

Much more relevant don't you think?

Hipwood also playing the worst game of the year the week after playing his best.

Berry as well.  Thought he was some sort of king pin after scragging Oliver last week.  Then there's that nong nong Dilmot

It wasn't  and the Lions won

  • 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.
