Oliver’s last three kicks to unmarked Brisbane players.

    Chandler, TMac, Brayshaw are not performing at the required level. I'd risk to say they are not in our best 23.

    So we finally win a clearance ...the ball is dumped out of the middle with seconds to go yet not one tall or medium forward is sitting in the hole at HF!!??????????????????????????????

    Trash. This entire game needs to get in the [censored] bin. 

    Maybe time to step away from the game and computer.

    Stop fumbling, stick tackles and outwork them…

    We won that quarter.

    Make no mistake. They are only in front because structurally we are missing our 2 most important players. Max’s injury really deflated the team, but they fought back that quarter. We are such a tough team.

    I’m sorry but do I know you? Walk on sir.

    This next half is going to show how strong our character is. Everything that could’ve went wrong did.

    Forget about that first half & come out strong.

    I think everyone of Oliver's kicks have gone straight to a lions player.

    Harmes needs to loft but he's certainly not alone.

    Bbb trying and doing very well.

    Jv isn't fit. 

    Come on Tmac show some leadership.

    Why ask Viney about Max. Why not just stick a knife in his heart.i.

    I expect the skip to motivate the boys at HT. He doesn't want to dampen their fighting spirit.

    So many fumbles, no control at all, a couple of players a pass and that’s about it. Very lucky to be this close. 

    Boy, Viney was [censored] in that little interview.

    Our blokes are playing bruise free, jumping at shadows tonight

    Not having a tall HF sitting in the hole for the center bounce 666 is unforgivable

    We CAN win this. We have played like trash and are still within 20, and even won that quarter. If we come out with the right mentality, firing and give these bogans NOTHING.

    Not trying to make an excuse but I am just wondering how much the hard surface of the ground is not being handled well by us. A surface that they would not have trained on or played on. We seem to be missing / not picking up the bounce of the ball

    What a disgraceful comment. Footy involves 2 teams. Sometimes, believe it or not, you get beaten. Check yourself before you comment next time. 

    Agreed …Grundy has def had the better of Oscar …a lot of our players are flat …as I am seeing Gawn but let’s see how they come out after half time before some very average comments from so called Melb supporters

    That’s probably it actually.

    Melbourne not ruling out that it’s an ACL and Gawn’s reaction is a very very very bad sign.

    They are because our depth is a mirage but they aren’t good players.

    Chandler is meh.

    T Mc is just hot and cold and the ruck isn’t helping.

    Gus is Gus. Probably a decent mid or tagger. An ok winger. A fraud at a half back against good supply, just wants to drop off all day long

    Last week Brisbane led Port Adelaide by 12 points. They lost by 54 points in the end. Just an observation.

    I haven’t given up this game.

    Don't be coming in here with that sensible talk.

    It's half time and we're 20 points down. It's the absolute WORST. 😜

    • 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?

      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.
