Kanga Kanga Kanga the difference in the end.

Chandler was massive and Judd just knows what to do. Hooray for youth!

We have some issues but I'll take any win in Round 6.

Please just retire Riewoldt. Always kills us.

    Van Rooyen is going to be a genuine star for us, how many young forwards have a quiet one for three quarters and turn it around in a matter of a quarter. 

    Gotta be mark of the year contender.

    Tonight showed us how close the comp is right now. True grit from 25 down.

    If there’s one moment to stand out from tonight, it was Hunter winning a clutch ball on the Members’ wing just before 3/4 time to set up the Oliver goal on the siren. The roar after Oliver’s goal was the loudest I’ve heard here since the Wattsy 2017 QB goal.

    I cannot believe we won that game. Apart from an increasingly good last quarter, our game play, skills, and decision making were as poor as they have been in 3 years. 

    Take a bow Jack Viney - epic game in every way.

    And welcome to the big time JVR.

    Brown's gotta come in to protect JVR and/or Petty

    Not sure only 2 key defenders is sustainable

    Great game by Viney

    Very odd coaching to have Gawn ruck to majority of the game when we needed a seasoned body up forward

    Win's a win. The first three quarters were far from enjoyable but I like how we responded in the last.

    Van Rooyen was incredible late. Looks a gun. Chandler's fast becoming one of my favourite players. He's tough, quick and super composed. Love him.

    Couldn't have been anyone other than Viney. Tough as nails and a constant presence even when we were getting beat.

    We take the win obviously, but there are some things we need to look closer at. Our backline was poor, still too much millionaire football, and our forward structure is a mess. 

    Having said that, positives: wrestling the game back, JVR and what a crowd!!

    Learn from this and take the W onwards

    Go Dees 🔵🔴

    Still worried about how we handle ground balls in our back half.. we just cannot stop the opposition.

    Gutsy win in the end but a few things to work on as well.

    JVR is heading to cult status.

    If JVR doesn’t get you excited, nothing will. 
     

    Plenty to work on still but gee it’s good to wrestle back momentum and grind a win out. 
     

    Judd ‘knuckles’ McVee is some find too, love his composure

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • 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.
