    Apologies to Gawn, May, Brayshaw and ANB who all player vote worthy games. Even Roo is stiff, with 3 goals and some good ruck work.

    6. Lever - for his superb final quarter which settled the game in our favour.

    5. Melksham - contest after contest after contest.

    4. Viney - I always favour the workers. Plus, he produced a masterclass in wearing tackles and still getting the ball moving.

    3. Rivers - positive energy

    2. Petracca - worked himself back into it

    1. Langdon - acknowledgement for doing his job really well and being important when we were not doing so well as a team

    Many others deserve respectful nods because we were frequently forced to play outside of our comfort zones and responded pretty well.

    Really tough to choose, so many players had a mixture of good and bad moments.

    6 Lever - the intercept king is back.

    5 Rivers - strong and decisive.

    4 Viney - usual warrior-like performance.

    3 Sparrow - powerful in contests and showed good touches.

    2 McVee - tidy and reads play superbly.

    1 Melksham - has locked in his finals spot.

    Honourable second-half mentions to Max, Petracca, Oliver, Brayshaw and ANB.

    I’ll admit I’m not brilliant at separating players by one vote. But I thought our best were Melky, Lever, Rivers, Sparrow, Brayshaw and Viney.

    I’ll also admit I am surprised by the inclusion of JVR, Gawn, Petracca, Oliver and McVee in other people’s votes.

    No votes at all for Oliver and Trac. Both failed to make a contribution although Trac did exert himself in the last quarter.  
     

    6- Rivers 

    5- Lever 

    daylight 

    4- Melksham 

    3- Brayshaw 

    daylight  

    2- Gawn

    1- JVR for his straight kicking 3 goals 

    apologies to Hunter, May and Langdon 

    average -,Bowey Sparrow, Mcvee, Tomlinson, Smith, ANB, Chandler 

    below average today - Kozzzy , Trac, Oliver, Salem

    Laurie worked himself into the contest but might miss out next week 

    Schache only played a soft 25 minutes (he is as physical as a 12 year old schoolboy)

    • 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.
