Melksham, Petty and now Brayshaw out. A step too far.

And the MRO will be looking closely at JVR's careless (or stupid?) elbow.

Unless we can disrupt them defensively by moving more quickly on transition and from half back, this ain’t happening. Hopefully Tracc can lift, and the Pies tire. They should, cos they’ve been fading in the last month, but our inside 50 game at the mo is simply awful. Making it so so easy to defend. Ugly stuff, but there’s time.

What the hell is with the media trying to get Maynard off. He elected to jump and caused a player to go off concussed. How can it be any clearer.

I'll burn something  down if he gets less than three weeks.

Sparrow two touches.

Trac 7.

Tmac 2.

I hate to say it but even Viney hasn't  been good.

Lots of them want the easy footy, just stare at the contest. Why can't they follow Vineys exemplary body of work?

Feel like we really dominated that quarter without gaining on the score board, looked a lot more Melbourne like. 
One thing about this team is we can go harder for longer. 

Starting to win a few more contests but our method going inside 50 is deplorable. Only Bowey and rivers showing any poise. Would have loved to sneak a goal in the back end of that half but Collingwood backline too solid.

Burn a cross with Maynard nailed onto it Deever 

We had the game back on our terms but couldn't convert. Our forward line is a dog's breakfast but it's only 17 points. First goal this quarter and it's game on.

Poor Gus 😭

Roo will get suspended

Starting to grow into the 2nd half of the 2nd quarter. Have to be more precise going forward take our opportunities.

Gawn starting to lift aswell as Kozzie need more action from Fritta, Trac, Clarrie cmon lads we need more from you guys.

JVR and Tmac time to stand up and take a couple of grabs.

Get busy Dees.

Get a fugging move on.

Now they are saying JVR can be called to the tribunal. Is that believable?

Third quarter crucial. Gotta apply scoreboard pressure and be within 10 points at 3/4 time. Forward play shambolic so far so for Christ sake can we try to find our forwards on a lead.

 

I liked the way we eneded that quarter but I don't know where our goals are going to come from. We can't seem to grasp the concept of lowering your eyes inside 50.

1 week for certain, sadly. Textbook careless, late and high. Welcome back Brodie Grundy. Maynard should go too, because he could’ve avoided turning. They’ll give him benefit of the doubt tho. 

Richo is a deadset gronk 

Hate his voice

He was a sook as a player. I’m happy he got no success at the tigers.

Now he’s a cretinous, biased dropkick with the mic. 

TMac to back pocket, JSmith the GHF, smalls front and centre with paired run-throughs provided. Bit more from Viney, Tracca and Clarrie - not much teamwork between them. Rivers into centre, Sparrow takes on Sidebottom. NO BOMBS. JVR has got to lead to space. Gawn doing well.

We have 8 more inside 50’s and bomb it for no result. 

No one leads out to get separation.

Totally dysfunctional forward line atm.

He moved his elbow towards the chin of the pies player. Not a good look.

 

Need a huge lift from Sparrow, McDonald, Fritsch and Salem. Simply not good enough so far.

Is trac playing ?? 

Spent a bit of time on the bench that quarter  but yea he's been exceptionally  quiet.

I'm really disappointed after Gus was stretchered off we didn't respond .

Tmac worries me so much.

I know our entries are poor but he could be out bowling people over.

I feel he just makes up the numbers when he plays these days.

Please prove me wrong Tom.

  • 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.
