How can you tackle a player that marks the ball 

New rule apparently.

 

We're in trouble.

Coaching and selecting integrity woeful.

Petty spudding it up at CHF while we leave out an in form forward in Schache out.

Hibberd is finished as a footballer. Incredibly slow to react at ground level.

Got ourselves in a massive boghole right now. Going to have to do it the hard way.

 

Good on you Fritta


Well done Langdon and Fritta.

But what has happene to our contested ball game? Not too long ago we were the best by a long way.

Chatting with a Richmond mate on the side, and he completely agrees that the umpiring is pathetic and looking after the Tigers. 😡🤬

Richmond win this comfortably. Not even close.

 

Richmonds pressure is 10 fold on ours, nothing to do with umpiring which has been average.

Hopefully you’ve started something Fritta

Its never Frittas fault. 

I am surprised Goodwin hasn't rested him


Honestly, why do we get caught holding the ball so much? We don't have that burst of speed breaking from packs, even Trac.

Umps liking their work. Think Gil does too.

Zero pressure. 
Neeld sort of stuff. 
Goingbhome at half time. 


The fact we can’t win centre clearance with the personnel we’ve got is pathetic. 

 

We've conceded 51 points half way through the second quarter again. What's the excuse this time? 

Putrid

Talk, we aren’t doing enough of it. Playing very selfish footy.

  • 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.

  • 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.
