Any positives? We're only 11 points down 😀

4 actually

and NO injuries (touch wood)

Good to see Petracca has obviously learnt that a high ball drop and exaggerated arc pays dividends as he kicks yet another piont🤮


A lot better ball movement this qtr/eight whatever

Windsor, brown, verrell, all getting a bunch of it. Viney and petracca popping up when the game needs correcting. Koz looking dangerous, sparrow looks more confident. There’s a bunch, don’t let 8-15 panicky posters think the sky is falling in the first 3 quarters of a practice practice game get you down

 

pup brown is all class

his lateral movement gives anb a chance to hit schache f50 for a goal

dees in front

12.8.80 (0 injuries)
12.6.78 (1 injury)

Zero injuries is all I want from this game. It’s the only thing of relevance to round 1

Caleb getting involved this quarter. Kynan Brown done a few good things. 
 

Less tackle today than an empty fishing box though.

Hore or Adams better play well in the seconds because you couldn’t pick Tomlinson for round 1 based on this effort 

Rivers ball use has been deplorable

He has been atrocious. May not much better though. Lever the only real stand out in defence.

Excited Pup GIF by AT&TYouthful enthusiasm! Love it!

Billings been good

The Sparrow charging up the middle and a kick goes to 2 players getting in each others way is the big thing to review in terms of structures.

A mountain of fat side space and an open 50, short of a completely flubbed kick or simple dropped mark that has to end with a set shot.

I think there were (and are) enough worrying signs against a second string outfit to warrant some panicky posts, pre-season or not.

  • 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.
