It's crazy we gifted both Grundy and Jordon to a premiership contender. Not very strategic.

Strategy had nothing to do with it. Sydney finished eighth last season. How could anyone have known they’d be a premiership contender?

Hashtag hindsight etc.

I've been waiting 100 years for Geelong to be bad again. They are just like:

- The [censored] that won't flush

- A cockroach 

- A thorn in the side

- Anything else that has been posted here a million times.

… a disposable nappy. Those things take hundreds of years to break down.

neither were best 22

okay buddy

Carlton v Essendon is  impossible re. a good result.

Either side winning is enough to make you vomit even a draw gets each team 2 points which is just as bad.

Both were best 22, don’t be ridiculous 

mr sub Jordon? played plenty of games but was around player 22-25 in the squad

Grundy clearly not best 22. was available during finals didn’t get picked for the last couple of months

whos being ridiculous?

They both wanted to go, one as an unrestricted free agent.

Few other options from the club I would have thought.

Don't get in the way of every thread been overtaken by MFCSS. 🙂

If only we had Grundy i'm sure all our problems would be solved.

It was just madness. I will never understand it, we had some bargaining power, particularly with Gus involved….

The real story will come out one day…

Like when the Pies gave him to us for virtually nothing? it’s cap space and having no negotiation power for a player playing at Casey

Pies got bugger all for Treloar too

both with 5 years left on their contracts.

madness indeed

Nah I want essendon to lose. They have west coast next week. Any losses they have is good and I don't want them going further ahead on the ladder

it’s hilarious isn’t it? people just don’t get footy. Grundy would still be playing at Casey this year if he was with us

he missed a snap from 5m out today unchallenged. he is not a forward at all


Cats have lost 5 of the last 6 since we broke them

good times!

Do you think Scott will give Guilden a vote this week. Cameron getting the 5 is set on stone but….

We needed to get off the hook and we did so, I don't see why we would have had much if any leverage.

I don't want the Cats to win, given it's our best chance at making top 4 for them to lose, however this shows me how ridiculous the AFL fixturing is. Swans have had two byes already and the Cats haven't had any. The Swans look so fresh and the Cats are cooked and just hanging in there.

The AFL are a joke the way they run the fixture.

The AFL put the fix into fixture.

If Grundy had played against Carlton in the semi last year we would have won that game. And we would have gone on to win the flag. We all know this.

 

Wow I've triggered a lot of people here with my Grundy and Jordon talk.

Anyway, here's to Billings and Fullarton!

I think if Gus had retired straight away we would’ve offered Jordon more money, so that was unlucky.

the grundy one was the right move as it gave us more cap once we realised it didn’t work. Doesn’t help this year but will help over the next 5

  • 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?

  • 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.
