Only positive I can see is that I'm not the silly [censored] with $50,000 on them to win but at least 6 points.

    Goody said before the game he does give the team a spray if it's required. I'd say tonight is the time again

    Pathetic. That was the worst quarter our current midfield has ever played.

    We have to be the worse side in the AFL at going for the ball and keeping it front of us. 

    Every time we pick the ball we are so easily pushed/bumped off the ball and the ball goes tumbling out to the opposition favoured side while we have 3 players running to the other side for a cheap one.

    Those dogs are absolutely smashing our captain up.

    Still in it.

    Come on Naarm. Punch back

    The only way is up in terms of stoppage work. Abysmally bad that half.

    Would love for someone to stand up for Max. Butters, and just about every other port player, bumps into him at every opportunity. Hell even a 4 gamer in Lord had the nerve to put a dirty elbow into his back. Stand up for your captain ffs.

    This is why I bang on about clearances.

    We need clearances, we need first use of the ball because we need to be playing in front because as soon as the game becomes a scrap we are no good.

    Lucky we have the best midfield we’ve ever had then. Weird how ineffective they are. It just doesn’t add up

    If this midfield group doesn’t get their head ripped off at half time by the coaches, for this lifeless, soft, insipid performance, then I’m not sure when they will.

    This.

    JVR is a bright young talent, but jeez he runs under the ball repeatedly and is basically uncompetitive. He doesn’t have any support. Brown should’ve come in instead of TMac. At least he draws a man, free kicks, and was kicking goals before injury.

    They are getting stuck into Gawn again. Someone fly the flag and help out the captain ffs.

    We are playing afraid. Afraid of [censored] it up, afraid of losing.

    Where has a g&d from 2021 gone. We were relentless in our attack and endeavour, now we are way too regimented in our ‘systems’ that when it doesn’t go according to plan we are all at sea.

    12 frees to 7 and we got first three.

    clarrie called for throws

    but Port multiple one handed throw, Powell pepper double handed over top of his head

    umpiring is so bad

    max pushed in back constantly only free in centre against him for blocking a joke

    Still demons need to lift

    Max needs to show some leadership. Getting some treatment, but needs to work his way through it

    It’s the midfield.

    Forwards are not getting a look, backs are under siege.

    Midfield cannot clear and move the ball.

    • 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.
