Not sure North are a rabble. 

Definitely not. They have some young A listers and a good coach.

I can't get a handle on Freo. In 2022 it looked like they were on the way to battling for a top 4 spot in 2023 but it's been all downhill

North in the 70’s lost the first 6 games and then made the GF

’76 i think

This piqued my interest and given the time I have on my hands, I looked it up on AFL Tables.

In '76, they lost the first three games.  In '75, they lost the first four before going on to their first flag.

They never lost the first six in the period 1974-78 when they made the GF every year.

Luke Jackson, generational. What a loss for us 

He’s a freak; but, sadly, we knew that.

When he starts to run with the ball a bit and kick more he’ll tear matches apart.

Another JT special.

Apparently half the leagues recruiters didn’t have him as a top 5 pick back in 2019.

May be top of the iceberg.
Taylor called a beauty and wore a lot of criticism for it.

Don't think we need to clap for Jackson this year.

Fair chance ! The front on vision will [censored] him. He braced and turned into Cunningham in my view.

No attempt to spoil or mark.

 

OK Collingwood lost, we won,  now I want to sit down tonight with my Chinese food after a good day at the footy & watch the swans give the bummers a drubbing 


Wright should have had his arms out like he is trying to take a mark, but he tucked up and turned do gone for a while

 

Lol, Langford marked that ball on the Hume Highway

  • 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.
