Hope the Cats get smashed tonight. Although no Nick or Steele makes it interesting.

Sydney and Bombers will overtake the Cats and they'll be 11th.

suck it

    Tricky games for the Lions and Port. Would be great if the Crows and Giants can turn them over.

    Geelong - Pies, can't make up my mind. Pies losing keeps the door open for top spot (albeit a slim chance), but that keeps Geelong's season alive. I think I prefer Geelong out of finals.

    Adelaide to upset the lions.

    Ditto GWS at AO.

    And we beat Carlton locking in the top 4.

    Upset alert!

    I feel it in me bones

    North will beat the bombers

    bombers are cooked, are missing a few and should have lost to WC at home last week. Cunnington and Wardlaw in for north

    Brisbane v Adelaide

    Percentage could well decide second spot.

    A high scoring close shoot out would be wonderful assuming we can't have a Crows win

    120-118 is perfect

    Probably better for us if Collingwood lose to Geelong tonight. It give us more options.

    1) We will likely finish higher than Collingwood on percentage if we go 3-0 and they go to 1-2, and therefore securing a top 2 spot.

    2) Should us and Port go 2-1, Collingwood go 1-2, and Brisbane go 3-0, we would finish third and play second placed Collingwood. Don't mind that scenario at all.

    Agree.

    Very hard to win at the gabba.

    But the crows will give it a shake, it's an elimination final for them and they have a pretty good defensive system.

    The last few weeks for us have been huge (our own results and others going our way), but this week is just as big. Beat Carlton, Collingwood, Brisbane and Port lose and we'll just about guarantee top 2. 🤞

    Definitely want Collingwood to beat the kittens. I cant stand their arrogance and Dangerfield saga this week is the last straw. [censored] them.!

    Norff to beat motley Bombers who get the rub of the green more than the bulldogs. Umps saved them last week. Useless.

    Crows a chance against Lions at the gabba. If Tex fires up so will the whole team.

    Can’t see all those 3 losing. 
    But, I said it before and it happened so who knows. 
     

    I am the most confident GWS beat Port. Less confident Crows beat Lions at home. Not confident at all that Pies lose to Geelong, who to me looked absolutely cooked.

    I have tipped North to beat the Bombers - at Marvel, Bombers not playing great footy, North can challenge but rarely for 4 quarters. Tonight, they will do it for Cunnington.

    Collingwood tonight. Cats out of the finals is sweet, sweet bliss.

    Collingwood to play again at the G v cats. They played and won there in Rnd 1. Why do they never ever play at Kat Park?!! Its like only 3 times in the modern era v our at least 25 times.

    Fitzroy have played more games there than Collingwood.

    Enquiry pls !!

    Important to wait until the very last minute of the very last game before claiming top spot! 😁

    Tonight I'll be watching Pies-Cats just to see if there's still a silly chance of it happening.

    Pies are only two games ahead of us so if they drop this one then the hunt is on for real.

    I'm clinging to a dream where Essendon pip them in the final round and cost Collingwood top spot, but then the Bombers still miss out on finals.

    Nope, its possible we could become favourites if Collingwood lost (3rd game in a row) and we won regardless of top spot.

    • 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.
