    GC will be lucky to get a goal by half time the way this is going

    That was unreal from the Howe kick out.

    Never in the world have we ever attempted what he just did.

    Will have lots of free time to lose a few kgs next year methinks.

    Dont need to worry about a 20th licence, either Suns should fold or merge with GWS and keep the comp at 18 teams.

    Pathetic from the Suns

    They keep making me lose in my tipping competition 😡😡, I have lost 4 rounds because of them. Don't know why I keep trusting them.

    Pies just look like they are centrally by by AI. Their game at times looks so ridiculously in sync that you would say it’s flukey - but it is not.
     

    Yes the Suns really suck and I think this game will just about seal Dewy’s fate. Poor fella - had a Rolls Royce list but could never really create a team environment. They need to bring in Hardwick and a brand new coaching panel.

    At least the stands will still stay full, unless Pie fans think it’s time to hit Jupiters.

    Yes. But I reckon they’re more deliberately creative - and they pull it off so many times. And a feature in this game has been the breakneck speed running past the ball carrier - incredible. They get 20-25 meters instantly each time. But then a silky delivery into 50. Very impressive.

    No pressure in this game of course. We showed what can happen if you hassle and block and choke their ball movement.

    But the Pies style looks very, very good if you give them an inch.

    Collingwood showing what a genuine contender should do against a bottom 10 team.

    We should do similar against GWS tomorrow.

    This game is all about the meaningless of the Suns. I’d love to know their stats in the last 10 weeks of a season since their inception. They still can’t hang in when it matters.

    They don’t mean anything, and nobody cares. I bet Fitzroy wish they were given this much grace.

    Just send them to Tasmania and keep the competition at 18 teams.

    If we were doing this to the Suns, Demonlanders would say, well, it's only Gold Coast, this is the bare minimum.

    We love a good re-frame on Demonland though.

    I mean we barely got out of Metricon alive. 
    But the Suns don’t play second halves of seasons. The bye is their end of season trip.

    That's it. I'd be quite happy to play the Suns between Round 16-24. Remember what we did to them at Marvel in 2021? They throw in the towel pretty quickly.

    • 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?

      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.
