For some reason I like a forward line of JVR, Schache or Petty, Fritter, Kossie and support cast with Max and Trac visiting on occasion.

    I'm noticing a few posters are starting to exclude Ben Brown from our projected 2023 forward line.

    Would love BBB and TMac in there but knees and feet seem important parts when playing footy.

    Jeesus.. go and have a look at Schwarz's highlights reel before he was Ox...if he's that good then they should sack the whole FD right ..NOW for not playing him already. 

    It must be the silly season?

    Of course you may be correct,which will be exciting...

    Better than that Ruski ballet dancer guy?

    I agree

    his highlight reel isn’t getting me high

    hopefully I can’t get a better buzz in 23

    The difference with young players at MFC is there is no need to rush.these days

    Earn your spot and try and keep it, Bowey being the perfect example of trying to keep it

    JVR will have all the incumbent medium and tall forwards looking over their shoulder, a good thing for the team

    Nice Instagram post of a fit Tommy Mc running around his local track at Edenhope

    On other young players my tip is keep an eye on both Taj W, who improved week to week and Blake Howes, was close before injury.

    If everyone stays fit, we finally have cover all across the ground

    Have high hopes for Woey. Look forward to how his pre season goes.

    Tmac is the glue which makes our forward line tick between the talls and smalls.

    With the recent loss of Jackson returning to his home state of WA, I was worried JVR may follow suit in the coming years.

    If BBB plays like he did in the final third of the season then he should never play again in the red and blue.

    Moved like the mechano man in cement and had Chris Dawes concrete hands.

    Frankly unless they learn to kick it to BBB on a lead all he can do is " his best" with what he's got.

    On a lead and with his inspector gadget arms he's almost a weapon. Certainly that's  a change up from the dumb predictable bomb to the forward pocket boundary line. 

    Making him play against his strengths is like Neeld trying  to make Liam Jurrah into Byron Pickett.

    Hopefully both he and TMac have another season in them and a flag to go with it

    10-12 games played and goal a game average would be a satisfactory output for his for season in the seniors. anything more would be a bonus.

    Even if he can just get one out he's a chance to mark with his reach instead of flying against 2 or 3 opponents.

    • 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.
