First set shot at goal I’ve ever seen Amartey kick through the goals.

    Looks like Cripps has some big padding around the ribs on one side - is that normal for him?

    That’s where he stores the brown paper bags.

    I can’t wait to lose to this [censored] mob next week. Nothing better than going from one bunch of meth head inbred fans to the next. 

    Who is this post for? Is it venting? Do you think we care? Do you want to be proven right? Is it a way to hedge against the worst possible result. Would honestly love to know.

    Straight sets coming up again for us.

    Because we're bad or because the oppo are good?

    We are in big trouble. Straight sets again. I don’t think I could feel any more depressed right now.

    Both. Doesn’t matter how fired up we come out next week. We’re unable to kick a winning score.

    Please everyone cool it with the straight sets nonsense. It may happen but there's no point whinging about it based on two sides playing a game that doesn't involve us. You're just doing your own heads in.

    They were talking on the radio today about a Collingwood/ Carlton grand final. Ugh

    Carlton hasn't been that good. The intensity is way lower than our game last night. Those talking definate straight sets need to chill out.

    It’s just me commentating on the quality of opposition fans we are going to have to endure two weeks running. 
    Fun times.

    A lot of blues ‘fans’ must have needed directions to the G after not turning up for the last 15 years

    Umm, the Blues do play home games at the MCG 😊

    We’ve not cracked over 87 points in the last 3 weeks and that was with Melksham. And Roo. And neither are playing next week. 
    God help us if there is so much as one drop of rain or a slight breeze next Friday. You think Pies defended well, wait until we try to get 80 inside 50s against Carlton for 2 behinds.

    With our luck, Clarry will get sunburnt and subbed off 3 minutes into the game.

    I think we are going to play the most contested, combative, ugly brand of footy next week.

    We will be angry. I like us when we are angry.

    Roo is tiring anyway and IMO is barely best 22. Melksham is a big out but is only good for 1-2 goals per game. 

    I don't care who you put in our forward line anyway. Forwards kick the goals but they don't create them.

    • 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.
