Absolutely [censored] disgraceful half of football. No skill, no awareness and so vanilla. Structurally putrid. Any danger of a stay at home forward. What the [censored] is Bailey Fritsch doing taking marks at centre half back.

    At the game. Gotta be some kind of record for kicking to the oppo. Just never seen anything like it. It’s literally like they’re trying to do it. Can’t possibly continue, can it?!!!!

    It's pretty bad. I'm trying to be positive but this is Richmond.

    The cats will be watching this and smiling.

    Ooooooft yeah, we cannot play like this against Geelong or we’ll lose by 50 easy. 
     

    We look tired or something. It’s weird. There’s no zip in the legs across the ground.

    Relax people, like a cat swatting a mouse. Yes the skill errors are weird but it’s actually well in control. Big credit to Howes for holding Bolton for so long, got off the leash for a hot minute there but a 3rd quarter onslaught coming

    That is the worst half of kicking turnovers I have seen from MFC ever.

    This game resembles a WWE match more than a a football game.

    Kamikaze corridor mis kicks! These kicks are killing us. Basically keep handing the ball back to them but when they are in space and in their corridor! 

    Guts from Fritta .

    I'm sorry but I don't think it's unfair to say ...This is the worst we have played for a long time.

    We have gone from being a top four contender to playing like a bottom four one.

    It's a big concern. We do look asleep. ( Again).

    Its not as if we are a poor team but if you watched us for the first time this year.....

    What are we doing prior to the game?

    It's pretty difficult to explain.

    Someone said it was a slop fest and it is but I want to know why 

    Last week we said fatigue. This week it will be the bye 

    But there is something wrong.

    Trac, Viney and May not showing any leadership.

    Yze has put together a game plan against us & it's working.

    He knows how our players operate & being around Melbourne knows he we can also crumble

    Has anyone ever seen so many turnovers?  Kicks DIRECT to opposition players.  
    Eyesight? Jumper clash? (didn’t happen way back when covered in mud). 
    Execution WILL kill us today and for the season.   


    Been feeling this for a while but tonight it has come to a head......we are so f$#@ing boring to watch.

    Just what I was thinking. It’s almost funny.

    We've given them a huge sniff.

    No excuses re three matches in thirteen tonight.

    This is as bad as we've played since the 2019 horror show.

    We are a risk to lose tonight, honestly we deserve it. Did these premiership coaches actually prepared this group for tonight? Or did they think we would just win by default? 🤢🤢🤢

    All going to plan, folks. 

    I wouldn’t be surprised if we do eke out a win here and yes they’ve thrown everything at us but if we were as good as we’re supposed to be we should be able to control the ball under pressure instead of turn it over in dangerous positions time after time. 

    Decision making has been atrocious.

     Loose players not spotted. Pretty ugly from up here.

    May, Rivers, Lever, Gawn in our top 5 disposals. Hello midfield

    It's the turnovers under next to no pressure that are killing us. Beating ourselves right now

    Don’t worry, this is made for the super sub Bailey to come in and look like a million dollars. 

    Windsor kicked two perfect passes to tigers. Petty and Oliver a bit disappointing. 
    Thank god for May, Lever, Gawn and ANB.

    I am sick and tired of Goodwin letting this happen over and over. Where's the physical and mental prep for these games?

    • 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.
