As much as we are OFF they are ON. Everything they touch is gold & we’re using two grabs to pick up [censored]

    Disco has quite the kick. 

    Seriously, if we can enter the main break having at least made inroads into the lead that will be something to work with, so another would be nice. Two would be great.

    Max no point punching it forward out of the ruck comtests as the Blues have a defensive (spare) sweeper sitting right in the hole waiting for that.

    If you're punching it away at least target someone like Windsor out wide who can burst out and find a target inside

    This just isn't our night, spent all our energy last week it seems. 

    We are so predictable. You didn't need to be a fortune teller to know we'd lack energy tonight. This is so similar to the Brisbane game. We really lack smarts. Why they didn't inject some fresh players beats me.

    Jeez, what a bad half of footy. Absolutely no forward method whatsoever, and forward pressure nonexistent. On top of that we're losing clearance and contest, so the ball is just constantly in Carlton hands.

    As much as we love Max his hit out work is suspect, or our mid fielders don't take their positions at stoppage. It's one or the other.

    First use to the opposition 80% of the time.

    He was assaulted twice that quarter. It was embarrassing.

    Rivers is caught high… after having already been punched in the head, and nothing on either occasion?

    He was even wearing a bandage for visibility! And still nothing!!

     [censored] half. We made no inroads into the q1 lead, so it will need to be a pretty amazing q3. 

    dunno. Can’t see it. We don’t have enough winners. Some guys completely absent. Walsh smashing us. Weitering everywhere.

    • 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.
