I'm sure you guys are snowed under in preparation for another epic podcast - just a reminder to do a quick shout-out for the AFLW fixture release and Melbourne's part in the season opener on Sep 1st. I know you're across it, but also that it's a packed agenda! Don't think there's been a H&A game with more to discuss than that one.

As always, love your work and go Dees.

Not sure we'll get to this tonight but we will of course discuss the women's team closer to the start of the season.

No worries, not looking for an in-depth binman analysis, just a shout out. Can't rely on the AFL to advertise haha.

What a great way to start the weekend. The boys realy pulled one out of the box and setup a great run into finals. 

I hope they double down with JJ and try to entice him to stay.

Changes for next week i think will be Tomo in for Petty. 

Need to keep forward line as in for now get JVR and BBB working together and play each other into form.

Have fun on the poddy tonight boys and go Red Legs!!!!!


1 hour ago, whatwhat say what said:

for the first 15 mins or so brisbane could not penetrate our zone, but once they 'worked it out' they sliced through with relative ease, until the final 15 mins

what changed?

IMHO the reason they couldn't get past us was that they didn't have the ball - we did. If you have the ball then the opposition can't score ...

q for @binman - what does he have against "holy grail"?!??

i take it he's more of a the jaws of life kinda fella over ghost nation, but surely human frailty is numero uno?

kiss my art his go-to for p&d?

Everyone knows the best Hunners song is Dog, then 42 Wheels.

I'm looking forward to @binman getting uber fired up again.

"throw your arms around me" is their iconic standard, but i love that whole album

1986 was a helluva year for oztrayan rock, which as a then seven year old i only know in retrospect:

  • the triffids - born sandy devotional AND in the pines
  • hunters & collectors - human frailty
  • the go-betweens - liberty belle...
  • crowded house - self-titled
  • nick and the bad seeds - your funeral my trial AND kicking against the [censored]
  • paul kelly and the coloured girls - gossip
  • died pretty - free dirt

arguably one of the greatest years for the local scene, i would wager

2) Was that Jake Melksham's best game for the Demons?

 

Let's not forget that around 2018 Jake was one of our best players...

Can we leave a review on Spotify or Google Podcasts?

I think you can comment on individual episodes on Spotify but I can't see any review system and I don't think Google has one either but I have an iPhone so I'm unfamiliar with that platform.

There is definitely a review system on Spotify but only for the podcast not for individual episodes.

Btw, your current review score is 4.9 stars out of 5 👍🏻

Excellent Podcast again fellas. Absolutely loved it.

@binman was this the scoreworm you were referring to?

 

Yep. So beautifully symmetrical

got to say im disappointed we didn't get the 3 hour podcast we were promised

I walk while listening to the podcast (on the following morning) and I’m happy for them to go as long as possible. Last week’s was a 19,253 step podcast. Thanks @Demonland

Damn - we only needed 747 more steps to make it a nice round 20, 000 step podcast.

I blame myself - i forgot to highlight Whatley's ridiculous call as the siren went when he said with great fervor - "Melbourne rescue their season'.

Sheesh.

And what about the 'how did the Lions lose that game" narrative the media are pushing.

Coz the dees didn't have anything to do with it did they!

If it was the Pies reeling in 5 goal deficit it would have all been Daicos this, Pies that, never count them out this, have my baby Nick that blah blah blah.

 

@Demonland and @binman on the pod there was discussion around why listing Grundy as omitted vs managed or soreness.

I am pretty sure that the CBA requires players to continue to receive match payments when they were in the team, but are unavailable for selection due to injury.

I would hazard a guess that this is part of the reasoning why clubs choose to manage players sometimes but omit other times.

 

Unsure if it applies here.

  • 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.

  • 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.
