Pride before a fall

sack Scott

I would happily take pick 5 if it means Geelong miss finals

 

It’s okay everyone - we’ll either get pick 4 from Freo or we’ll trade GC for it. Easy done…

In all seriousness why couldn’t have Geelong just done their job? Even in a loss I hate them 

Pick 4 looking shaky. Suns will get belted by Brisbane this week and drop below Freo on percentage. 

[censored] you Geelong. Pathetic reigning premiers can’t even beat a bottom 4 interstate team at home to secure a finals place. Absolutely pathetic today.

Pick 4's not gone yet. Depends on GC

A Geelong loss always feels good, makes the squeeze for bottom 4 of the 8 tougher for them. 

Yes, Glass-half because Geelong's chances of making the finals look very shaky:

GEE run home: POR (H), COL (A), STK (A), BULL (H)

As for the death ride:

CGS run home :BRI (H) - this round, ADE (A), SYD (A), CAR (H), NOR (A)

FRE run home: BRI (H), WCE (A), POR (H), HAW* (A)

* With Fremantle winning today the Hawks have pick 3 locked in so they can afford to play all four quarters.

Still currently hold pick 4 but we need gold coast and Adelaide to win some games now

They play each other next week so at least one of them will get a win 

Freo has Lions, Eagles, Port, Hawks 
Suns have Lions, crows, swans, blues north 
Crows have port, suns, lions, swans, eagles 

I’ll be cold in the ground before a bemoan a Geelong loss.  Book an early holiday Cats!

 

 


Picks are over rated.

Geelong probably not featuring in this years finals - absolutely priceless.

chris scott's boys must have had a round of flu - hohoho!

****test result today. Looks like we’ll finish with pick 6 now. Means we won’t have ammo to trade for Harley Reid and we will have less points to trade with Gold Coast too. So this loss is a double whammy for us. Gutted.


We should never bemoan a Geelong loss. Not to worry. We’re still getting a good pick.

And go Suns

Look at it from another perspective… Freo still plays both Brisbane and Port at home this year. If we continue winning, Freo coming into some sort of form could help nudge us into 2nd spot and a home qualifying final.

The only thing that trumps my hate for Geelong is my love for Melbourne 

Quite.

The Death Ride has now entered the final act.

You see, the flailing of the riders heading for the afterworld was always going to happen. And now, with Geelong wounded, the Fremantle Living Dead have Brisbane and Port in their last 4 rounds. The husked corpses of the west win those games and we rejoice, they lose and we chortle. Even if they were to win 3 of their last 4 from here - that would get them only above GC.

So I guess we need a new ride; the Gold Coast Love Ride.

Go Sunnies Go.

Cats vs Freo at KP

That'll sort out the % differential between them and Hawks!

I got that horribly wrong 🤦

  • 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.
