    The viewing experience at this ground is atrocious 

    I will never understand why you bother coming to the footy only to spend half the game going in and out of your seat to drink. Like why not get drunk for free at home?

    I’ve been lectured fairly solidly by some here for calling out Pickett’s performances these past couple of months. Obviously he’s got a whole half of football to make amends, but if this form continues tonight, those lecturers can stick their stat sheets where the Sun don’t shine. 

    Personally I know where to stick the stats sheets full stop..

    Kozzy is scared for the contest after getting suspended early in year he needs a spell 

    he has to tackle someone before that becomes a risk, and so far there has been no danger of that happening.

    The Saints threw everything at us in the first qtr and we took it well. I expect us to run away with this in the second half.

    Nup...one touch in a half.

    Needs to subbed off.

    Can't carry that. We didn't Spargo.

    Who’s the third? 
     

    King, Ross and who else?

    Lots of poor decisions and pressure/defence from half forward to the half back line has been very minimal, they are finding a lot of easy passes through the middle. 
     

    We are up, they have 3 players out. If we lose this then this will go down as bad a loss as the clubs had. 
    Lots need to change in the second half, compose with ball in hand is the most important. We are making so many mistakes under minimal pressure. Clean that up and we run away with this. Don’t or underestimate their desire and we lose. Lyon will have them pushing themselves to beyond their normal limits this second half.

    Goodwin needs to find a way to get this team back to 21 when they hunted teams and had an edge to them.

    Didn't catch the name someone got collected in a marking contest before halftime 

    Selection of Spargo and Melksham has been much criticized. Both are doing far better than the much-vaunted Kozzie.  It's baffling and frustrating because we all know how dynamic Kozzie can be.

    Goodwin put a rocket up picketts [censored] at half time. If we are any sot of side with their injuries we should win by 10 goals.

    Ok, no idea what the [censored] you are on about @Macca I’ve no agenda against Brayshaw, but you have singled me out for some reason. What ever. 

    I'm simply saying that his good work never gets recognised nor are other players who make the same errors (under pressure) being pointed out

    It's just always Brayshaw and never anyone else.  Except for maybe ANB and that's often unfair as well

    Both players are in the thick of things and both are often under the hammer when disposing of the ball

    Neither player is A grade so they are going to make a few errors.  From my point of view, it's easy to deal with

    The bigger issue are the players who aren't getting the ball enough.  Now that is a problem.  Or those who can't kick straight for goal

    Brayshaw has had 12 disposals and none of his few errors have led to opposition scores anyway ... anyone would think that he's turned the ball over 12 times given the levels of exaggeration on these threads

    • 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.
