Flip side of that is it gives them a bit of confidence before our game.
Also no way we take them lightly now considering Richmond gave us a good game last week. 

This — actually a bit concerned about this one

    Era over for Richmond. They need to go to the draft and trade table and begin again. Very successful era, though.

    I am one of the few people who actually like Gold Coast. I picked them to finish 8th (not looking good at this stage!)Ballard is becoming a player. 

    Maynard is a [censored]. Comes hurtling in to do what? Reminds me of Tommy Bugg - all front no brains.

    Crows kicking 3-10 is a poor return, and the Pies will not stop coming.

    Maynard such a faux tough guy. Looks like a crack dealer.  

    Dealer? That’s being generous. Looks more like the addict with a rotted brain needing us fix.

    100% fake tough guy. Nothing surer than Maynard coming in and attacking an unsuspecting opponent.

    I am going to watch the rest of crows and filth, enjoy a beer and have a great big LMFAO at richmond. We will now probably hear a big whinge from Hardwick about Marvel.

    Dwayne Russell said this week he won’t rule out Richmond until they need to win 10 of the remaining 9 games to make the finals.  He can be quite nauseating at times.

    I'm sorry what was that about Essendon's new look defence?

    Zerk-Thatcher on Hawkins was a disaster.

    Agree they are done for a few years (nothing wrong with that, they won 3 flags and arguably their best year they didn’t win it).

    Before we make our own descent, I’d like to jag one more at the G 🙏

    For a few years before Tassie come in and get every draft concession under the sun.

    They are done for a decade.

    Collingwood’s belief in desperation blended with outright attacking speed is phenomenal. It’s just frightening for opposing teams when they bring it, and the belief gets stronger. I hate to say it, really HATE it, but they are irresistible at their best.

    Was it a bit over the top today that geelong and Essendon ran through a joint banner for country game?

    Seriously? Absolutely over the top. May as well have called it the bogan banner

    Crows goal kicking is dreadful. They've kept the pies in this because of it. they'll be sorry when the pies run over the top of them in the last.

    I think I've realised that my loathing of Collingwood is almost as high as my love for the Dees. I was feeling sick with anxiety watching the game because I want them to lose so bad. I turned it off because I don't need that on a Sunday night :D

    Crows should be at least 10.9.

    They just traded the farm for Taranto and Hopper thinking they were still in premiership contention. They traded two first rounders, a second rounder and a future first! By my calculations they’re currently set to hand GWS pick 3 and won’t have a first round pick themselves until 2025 draft!

    Era is over and they’re going to languish down the bottom longer than usual because they got no draft capital now and the new Tassie team will get concessions in a few years when they finally get picks again. It’s going to be an ugly time for Richmond. They did get to enjoy three flags though so big success.

    Almost every player disputing decisions with the ump with hands up

    no dissent

    can we try to decide what’s allowed?

    Yet they can be outplayed for significant periods of matches by average to good sides. It’s odd. Crows kick straight and the Pies would be almost out of the match.

    • 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.
