    It goes against the natural order of things to cheer for the Pies, but I keep on having to remind myself it's in our best interests

    Somehow I have a soft spot a mile wide for the Doggies, probably because of 21 and my boss!

    Wow the Pies really commit the entire team when they attack.  Haven't really seen a team play like this before

    Turn it over and you have a goal.  Naughton was on his own earlier with only Quaynor within 20m

    McCrae could be the new Hardwick. It's stubbornly taken me a long time to acknowledge them but they will win 2 flags at least i reckon

    Having said that - they are not unbeatable.  and have clear vulnerabilities

    The one week you want/need Collingwood to do you a favour 😬 

    Pies need to ditch Ash Johnson before he single-handedly loses them a final. Not the smartest of players.

    pies conversion a "disgrace" in near perfect conditions for a premiership favorite, 28% 🤷‍♂️

    If Pies lose tonight they’ve lost to 3rd, 4th and 5th on the ladder. 
     

    Speaks volumes.

    Put that in your pipe and smoke it Mason.

    Meanwhile the Doga have been outstanding in their forward conversion and connection since 3 quarter time of last week.

    Dogs moving the ball well. They've built into the season nicely and are a big chance of taking the final top 4 spot.

    The dogs are having about a million shots from the pocket and nailing all of them, so we'd better be able to do the same on the same ground in 24 hours time.

    Ugal-hagen is slowly emerging as a star of the comp.

    Fabulous work ethic. Multiple leads high up the ground and doubling back occasionaly for a few inside 50.

    2nd efforts and some great passes inside.

    Imagine moving the ball with such precision and then nailing shots on goal. 
    What a dream 🙄

    Just don’t understand watching both teams fwds leading & taking marks vs ours running away from the ball carrier, and sharp passing no long bombs

    Not to wish ill on anyone but Jack Crisp needs to miss a game someway or another sometime soon. He’s creeping closer to Jimmy’s record. 😡

    This is the NON-MFC thread

    Just sayin’

    Yes!! I actually feel bad for being sad when I see him get up sore from a contest and then just run it off 😅

    Yes.  Has struggled with goal kicking up until about half way through this season.  Now appears to be turning the corner.

    His attack at the marking contest has gone up a notch as well.  No doubt more confident in the body as he fills out and gets stronger.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      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.
