Need to avoid being the first team in the current finals system to go out in straight sets two years in a row.

Wild to think we haven’t won a final since 2021.

We will. The media can go and get .....

Seems to be a Carlton intra club going by the media.

Also we have umpire #22 so #freekickcarlton will be in full effect. 

Faaaark why is this umpire doing finals?!

    I'll be heading in quite early today to enjoy a couple pf pre game coldies. Perhaps I should call it a pre game celebration as I'm extremely , highly, fully confident of a win!

    There has been a lot of criticism of selection but to this I say 'bah" - we could play the drovers dog at CHF and still beat these pretenders.

    Prediction - All over at 3/4 time.

    Can’t wait for the bounce. Boys better respond. We’ll know early if we’re going to win this. I predict a hot start, the boys will want to get themselves in a position to have another crack the filth on the 30th.

    Looks like Ray Comfort.

     

    Trac, Viney, Lever and a few other senior players disappointed last day out. They won't be as poor again.

    Dry deck so no excuses for poor goal kicking. TMac and Fritsch will be better tonight

    Carlton faded badly against the Swans and should have lost. We'll run over the top of them.

    Max to lead the way as usual. He's a champion.

    Dees by 25 points

    Just cannot see how Smith and Tmac as our two main talls are going to kick a winning score. Chandler and Pickett have barely fired a shot the last couple of weeks as well.

    The brunt of it all will be left to Fritsch unfortunately. 

    Carlton have all the momentum and emotion wave going with them where as I question if the the mental and emotional toll from all the Brayshaw fallout will have an effect. 

    Prove me wrong otherwise Melbourne. 

    Pretty sure your not alone in thinking this. Throw in Spargo whose been out of this team for a while and yea, it's a nervous wait.

    And Tom McDonald you have been given quite a few chances. 

    But Im hoping Fritta will excel in these dry conditions and Kozzie and Chandler to put on the proverbial clinic.

    Let's move the ball into our fwd line with speed and precision. 

    No way Viney will have another quiet one. He will dominate tonight.

    The big factor in this game is motivation. I imagine this close knit bunch are still fuming over poor Gus.

    Not just the dog act itself but over all  the pundits who supported it.

    The same ones who are delighting in hoping we lose four finals in a row.

    Aint gunna happen.

    If Gus does the pregame talk, we will win this on pure adrenaline.  This will not be a slow start.

    The blues caught us napping a few times last game we met, but things have changed. 

    If I can quote that strange orange man, I think this will be a game of "fire and fury" from us. 

    I'm still so pi33ed off, I just want us to play a gf now so we can have some old fashioned justice. And I know it's wrong to advocate violence but I just really don't care. The Afl certainly doesn't.

    Cannot [censored] wait!

    The Carlton sphincters were working overtime late last week. 

    If we bring the pressure, I think we run over them.

    We'll be fine tonight...  with our finals experience....
    Yep all good ...oh wait...lost our last 3 finals... going well..hmm 

    We'll  need to be ON from the first bounce... that'd be novel !!

    Goodwin is backing his system  ( there is NO fwd system )..  he is expecting the goals to come from ???   Our kicking has been [censored]..  Petty was ok.. oh wait..  Milky was great....oh wait again..  Rooyen can kick...  oh oh...   Fritch got the yips... hasnt been too crash hot back from injury..   no one can hit a barn.
    My advice to self ....get on the beers !! ;) Go Dees ( just not out the door....again ) lol

    I agree BBO, I feel pretty good about the game today. Reckon we'll be fired up in the 1st quarter and likely have 3-4 goals on them early.

    I was so nervous and excited last week.

    I feel nothing this week. Footy has been less than enjoyable since last Thursday if I'm being honest.

    Hope we put on a good display tonight and get the win.

    It's Game Day and the Demons take on the Blues in a sudden death final at the MCG. A win for the Dees will see them face the Lions at their fortress at the Gabba in Brisbane and a loss will see them bundled out of the finals in straight sets for the second season in a row.

    • 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.
