    Up until just before 3/4 time I think Kozzie thought he was 195cm ,trying to take marks in packs. Stayed on the ground and he would have kicked 5

    6. Gawn - just quietly grinding out three Brownlow votes against an All-Australian opponent with a monster for backup.

    5. Billings - bonus points for how important it could be for our season if he has rediscovered this level of form. His best game since 2021.

    4. Petracca - Continuously involved the way a star should be.

    3. Oliver - Continuously involved the way a star should be.

    2. May - not all of his kicks were long up the left! Also a generally terrific tall defender I'm told.

    1. Chandler - bonus point for how different 'good' Chandler is compared to 'slump' Chandler.

    Very even team performance, which is exactly what Goody would have demanded!         

    6.  May  -  outstanding all game.  We would have struggled without him.
    5.  Gawn  -  showed why he’s the best leader in the game (and the best ruckman)
    4.  Oliver -  what a game in the circumstances.  Just makes me so happy!
    3.  Petracca  -  just did what Tracc does best!
    2.  Billings  -  great game.  Confident he will be a great acquisition for our team.
    1.   Chandler -  great turnaround from last week.

    We are looking good!

    6. May. Solid as a rock and showed good aggro in the contests.

    5. Oliver. Showed good composure late in game and started to lower eyes as game went on.

    4. Billings. Good pressure and run all day. 

    3. Petracca. Won crucial contests later in game and stood up to quell Dogs momentum.

    2. Viney. Set the tone early.

    1. Windsor. Has some serious quick and smart decision making skills.

    Didn't you see Jack Billings take 15 marks and hit about 90% of his targets on the chest????

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      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.
