    Reckon we'll probably lose tonight and again next week off the five day break.

    Only reason I'm posting this is because I have a habit of always being wrong in my tips.

    Yeah he’s certainly a barometer. If he plays at his best and does the midfield heavy lifting, Trac becomes more of a forward threat and we invariably win.

    Not happy about the five day break.

    If you want to know how the game will go, i’ll fill you in:

    we will play tough strong footy. blood sweat and tears will slowly move the ball fwd through stoppages and eventually get a goal after 10 minutes of pressure

    Cats will then get a goal on the rebound in 15 seconds

    and repeat

    Yes, expect a Cats rebound score or two. We will need to be in front, score-wise, a ready; particularly, ready to rebound a few goals ourselves in response. Who is going to be our forward line surprise package, tonight?

    And unfortunately Rohan not the sub for them. Typical he picks tonight to return.

    Edit - the afl site changed the sub from a Clark to Rohan (unless my eyes were playing tricks on me!)

    AFL site has Rohan as sub.


    I know it sounds slightly desperate, because it is. JVR in the warm ups was not clunking his marks (most likely never does).

    In order to win tonight, we need most of our players ‘on’.  We need our home crowd ‘on’ as well.

    Nerrrvous as hell, but GO DEES

    If any one gets a chance or wants to fill in time before games & this is probably more aimed at mcc members, you should visit the mcc museum down below. They've put in a really nice section on the Melbourne footy club, both men's and womens

    Little bit disappointed in Bill being the sub, thought he showed enough for a full game.

    Maybe Woey is in for tagging role?


    @WalkingCivilWar question for you as figured you'd know. Actually, two...  🙂

    1. Why is our banner always significantly larger than the opposition's, both width and height? Are our crew just significantly more talented than everyone else and go above an beyond the expected standard each week?

    2. Why is the banner no longer lifted, dropped, rotated, lifted, dropped...etc, so everyone around the ground can see what it says? Are we worried about a 2018 GF Filth banner type situation?

    Nothing wrong with a large erection.

    This game should be treated like a Final. Push them to the Limit Demons. 
    They are visiting sacred ground 

    Smash them at every opportunity 

    I HATE Jeeelong

    I think Rohan is more dangerous as the sub.

    Not a great turnout so far 


    Geelong by 13 points unfortunately. 
     

    They’re looking extremely slick and like they have too many players in awesome form compared to us. 
     

    Really really hope I’m wrong. Will be a cracking bloody game!

     

    Cmon Dees 😈

    If Jeeelong win by 13 points it certainly won’t be a cracking bloody game. 
    We need to turn it on…

    Nothing less

    I’m tipping us to dominate stoppages and apply huge forward half pressure and win easily.

    • 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.
