Did Trac butter the hands before tonight? Seems to be handling a completely different ball

I mean it's usually bad but this is next level

    3 contested makes in 9 quarters of football. That is ugly.

    Petracca has been so fumbly tonight

    Worst game ive seen from the dynamic duo tonight.  We havent handled the conditions or some prettg standard AFL pressure which is a worry


    Tomlinson is not AFL standard.

    Would prefer Dan Turner, honestly.

    24 degrees at night in Brisbane would make the ball pretty slippery. I think Brisbane are just used to it and we’re not (compounded by the fact that we are objectively not playing well).

    Can he just play on from OOB when he hasn’t come over the mark?

    Seems they can


    Have we won a centre clearance the entire night? The midfield have embarrassed themselves. A second game player has torn us apart 

    Not our night folks. We'll respond against the Swans.

    Hope Max ok.

    Going to get my head down, go for a good walk early doors and enjoy the rest of the weekend.

    Over and out

    Petracca, Oliver and Viney will HATE the replay of this game.

    The whole team needs to sit down and watch it.

     

    I can hear the xxxx being cracked open. Shame, we were in this. If Trac picked that ball up we might have been away for a chance to return to 20. Instead we’re 38 down.

    Beaten by a better team on the night 

    Beaten because we failed to execute the most basic non negotiables of our side. We got destroyed in every area that we generally excel at. Inexcusable.

    • 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.
