His arm size is looking a bit too good for demonlanders.

I know I am old but I have absolutely no idea what you are saying. Please explain! Sorry I couldn't help the last sentence but would still like to know.⁵

I think it’s a reference to the muscle definition in Jefferson’s arms, as can be seen in the photo above. But what would I know…I’m old as well.

Making up things a normal part of your repertoire?

Nice self-own.

Feel free to let me know where that was said by me.....

Not your greatest post 58er

 

Apologies JNRMAC 

It was DCTRACCA who made the errors.

Over to you TRACCA?

It's not hype. It's hope. It's the off season. It's a time for the optimism of the supporters to grow and look forward to the next season.

The houses have all been trained down. Players have put on muscle in just a few weeks of holidays and all the problems with the game plan will magically be solved. 

At the moment, Johnson is a Schrödinger's cat. He could be the next Tony Lockett or he could be a complete bust. 

Let the optimists have their time.

Far better to be an optimist who is sometimes wrong than a pessimist who is always right.

Errrrrr we are 14th

That may only be for the last 6/8 games of 2024. That doesn’t mean we are stuck in that position permanently.

We could have easily made the finals without Trac and Clarry’s last half season. It was rare air without the two champs.

What does “ a bit too good for demo leaders” mean?

Jeffo owes it to Chris in Camberwell to have a 'break out" year.

He'll blow a bloody woofer valve if he doesn't.

Pressure's on!


Will play round 1!!

Perhaps that a lot of posters have called out his previously thin build? He has bulked up quite a bit now.

Let’s wait and see mate. 

17 goals in a VFL season, 4th at club, is hardly going to be keeping the oppo coaches up at night thinking about match ups. His best game was 3 goals against the Northern Bullants who have to beg local kids to play with them. Hes a great story if he gets a game but he wont be in the team for his scoreboard impact.

People are essentially lazy I think.

I just had the first chemotherapy session of my return, and feeling ok so far…but it is early days yet 😁. Hopefully this doesn’t spoil my 2025 too much; I will be on this for a few months, I suspect.

True, but at least I had almost a year off the ‘gear’ 😁

Jeffo”s best haul was 5 goals against the Zebras. 27 goals in 15 VFL matches. He was played in different positions prior to these games. 
 

The kid can play.

There was a period last year where we had 4 tall forwards in the VFL team, and Jeffo was played in the forward pocket and moved to defence during that period. I recall in games where it was just him and Kentfield as our tall forwards, he looked very good when as the focal point of our attack.

You must have missed last half of 2024. If you are going to comment please br accurate.

Goody  would not have made Jeffo an emergency 3 weeks in a row at the end of the season without the actual improvement he has actually made. 

Many in the Club are looking forward to him continuing on with his impressive development 

It is disappointing to read of criticism that is inaccurate. 

Credit where credit is due please. 

Goody can have his opinion on him thats totally fine, and I will be more than happy to be proven wrong. I watch every VFL game and still dont rate him as an AFL level player, and the stats dont lie....

 

Ill give credit when credit is due. Hopefully he can have more impact on the game instead of over the back goals ala Jenkins.

  • 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.
