Great kick Zanker after the siren. 

Dees by 26 points at halftime. Doggies very limited. Can't see anything other than a Dees win here

    Goldy giving away the freekicks is a momentum killer

    Yeah, a couple but she makes the game worth watching.

    Created a bit the other way as well.

    Love Goldy...just takes it on.

    Ordinary first quarter but the second was better. Purcell and West came into the game more in second and we improved because of that. Hanks has been fantastic all day. Hope that Paxman and Pearce will be okay.

    Looks like Mackin has the same attitude as well. They won't die wondering

    Mithen seems to be having her best year yet. Always loved her work rate but much cleaner with the ball

    First quarter we were nearly there, in the second our pressure broke them. Dogs have had very little space, and the game has been played in our forward half.

    The backline, repelling most of their attacks and intercepting everything. 

    Paxman, Taylor, Hanks, West, Purcell, Hore, Chaplin, Goldy, the main contributors. Daisy doing the important little things.

    Mithin in the midfield has been holding Blackman with the help of West. 

    WCW was on the telly in one of the spectator shots.

    I was hoping Mackins kick would go all the way. It was a fair roost

    This game is over but we need to keep our foot on the gas and try to pick up some percentage

    Are the Dogs depleted with injury  or is there just a massive gulf in talent between the two clubs?

    There' a gulf between Crows, Lions, Dees and the rest. North competitive but can't score.

    this is the worst doggies team i've seen play in the ALFW since inception. Lost some players to expansion teams i think. not sure about injuries today

    Good to see that the 26 point zone of indecision has not affected the women's team.

    Percentage is all important in this competition... need to score a few more and not let them goal

    A decent crowd by the look of things

    This is the best footy I’ve ever seen us play. In fact, this is the best AFLW performance of any team I’ve ever seen. The marking inside 50 and precision kicking around the ground is so good. Some of the switch kicks into the middle have been sublime. Just need to improve the goal kicking

    • 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.

      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.
