Sorry to say that I won’t be able to provide any analysis this weekend because I’ll be on a flight to Bali .

Yes I know it’s very inconsiderate of me, and obviously it’s music to the ears of many, but now is the opportunity for any budding 3 worder trainees to give it a go and open up a whole new career path.. for a week.

And in the immortal 3  words of Arnie Shwarzenegger… I’ll be back

 

Enjoy your trip

The astute, peregrinations of the post apocalyptic, freedom of speech, crusader of virtue, bonhommie and verbosity would INDEED be a joyful read!!

I'm disappointed, I opened this thread thinking you'd had provided a spoof 3 word player analysis for our amusement.

Your disciples are praying your flight is delayed and hoping they might still get your trichotomous fix for the round.

I was able to stream the game from Bali, so I’m here after all 

Gawn - surprisingly didn’t dominate 

Viney - gutsy 4 quarters

Fritsch - walks on water

Petracca - outstanding second half

Oliver - gradually finding touch

Brayshaw - excellent tagging game

Sparrow - in and under

Neal-Bullen - season best game

May - great work ethic

Rivers - versatile and courageous 

McVee - quietly destroys opponents 

Bowie - courage and presence

vanRooyen - did just enough 

Chandler - on shaky ground

Pickett - some minor cameos 

Melksham - excellent until injury

Lever - reliable and committed

Turner - impressive under pressure

Laurie - had little impact

Salem - timing is awry 

Hunter - disposal was problematic

Langdon - impressive second half 

Smith - an almost game

Turner - please stop fumbling. I will give him the leighway of a hotly contested game to walk into.

Chandler has nothing to worry about. No-one is taking his spot, especially Spargo.

  • 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?

  • 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.
