Freo finishing 4th or 5th last we be a dream but It ain’t happening. They are better than this and will still finish somewhere in 9-12. Still gives us a top 10.

    Suns are already above them, I'm getting greedy now and want Carlton to leap frog Freo in the coming weeks.

    Understand I was confused because I loathe Carlton.

    I don’t know if it’s already been asked, but how the flip did we lose to this basket case!?

    ...just need Sydney & Carlton to run into a bit of form now.

    Then the way Hawthorn have been going is a bottom 3 position for Freo too much to ask for?

    That’s what we can only hope for.

    they don’t have an easy draw: Collingwood, Doggies and Cats all away. You can almost put down 3 losses there. 

    Lions, Bombers and Power at home - would be hard to win more than one of those.

    Blues, Swans, Eagles and Hawks round out the rest , which they’ll probably 3-4. 

    So can’t see them winning more than 4-5 games for the rest of the season for 10-11 wins, which is about 9-12 ladder wise.

    The bye certainly came at the wrong time for the boys from Cockburn.

    GWS would have to be a chance this week but seem unable to string 2 wins together.

    It's always the wrong time for cockburn, bye or no bye.

    It’s premature -  I know.

    So if teams finished as-is. We’d have pick 6, 18, 24, 36 and 90.

    I’d take 18 and 24 to  Cats  (as Suns unlikely to trade ) for Pick 9.

    Take 6,9 to WC for Reid. If they take it, good otherwise we use it on Curtain and Duursma.

    These umps either have money on the saints or Freo to make the 8 cos this is putrid. 
     

    But tigers doing enough to shunt Freo down further!

    Why are the cats giving us a top 10 pick? Slide down 9 places for a pick in the 20s is not a deal I would do if I was them.

    • 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.
