All unraveling so quickly if true. 

Find it so hard to believe he could run out a whole last quarter in the wet if it were that bad. If there was even the slighted tear this action would have ripped it off the bone.

    Having had lots of issues with hamstrings, you can experience tightness and still be able to run at a reduced speed. There is the risk that you can advance the strain though. If it were a significant strain, he could not have played on. 

    One would think it would either be hamstring tightness = 7 -10 days or a strain = 21 days.

    774…..one of the reporters, not sure who. He’s had a scan and he’s unlikely to play this week but it’s possible

    Jon Ralph mentioned this at half time of the Hawks v WC game.

    A potential low grade strain. We’ll find out tomorrow the news.

    Ralph said Melbourne ‘aren’t saying’, but the word is that he’s done his hamstring. The fact we aren’t saying tells me that it’s not great news.

    Petracca, Oliver, Viney... cliff.

    That's our midfield depth.

    Doesn't matter who we bring in for Oliver (if required), they will be substandard.

    A legacy of Goodwin riding the same players into the ground year after year and not developing our other mids.

    Dunstan can get the pill but not sure about ball use and speed - evidently, Goody recruited him to play for Casey anyway.

    Hope Clarry pulls up ok.

    This should be the Demonland motto.

    Perhaps a Latin translation to give it an air of authority.

    That’s ok, we’ll win 2 of those, have the bye and he’ll give his body a rest. Cherry ripe come September. Everything on track .

    Hic tantum MFCSS est.  Relaxa donec nuntium est.

    Certainly aspirational, given we're all going through the 7 stages of grief right now!

    • 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.
