We didn’t even fly the flag the night he went down. Look at how the entire team flocked at Darcy when he floored maynard last week. Not much demon spirit hey?

    Don't want to be too harsh on Petracca but did you guys notice the shaking hands he had with the thug as they were lining up for the start of the game?

    He should have at least ignores his offering tbh.

    The only one to fire a shot today was James Brayshaw who kept saying Angus was supposed to go down the slide with him but couldn't be there

    Making a show of shaking his hand. It's just soft.

    Would have much preferred if the players told Maynard to get [censored]. No need to get side tracked into getting even with him just play hard footy.

    If the shoe was on the other foot I'm pretty sure Maynard wouldn't be shaking hands.

    Again another weak response.  Aside from Viney, how many blokes actually fly the flag.  Not many soldiers in the trenches !!!! 

    That’s because football is not war and the MCG is not Gallipoli 

    Calm down with the metaphors

    So just say that. No need to bring in misguided sentiment.

    Kane Cornes is a prat, but he’s right that we were bullied. That handshake and the back slapping at the end tells you all you need to know. It’s a poor look - we play this ‘higher ground’ card, but it doesn’t work.

    No way, Viney doesn't get off scott free here either.

    He had a mongrel dead to rights under the ball and instead of going for the grab, knees into the rib cage (pie-style), he went for a no hope over the shoulder spoil, and missed.

    I thought he'd at least be on the receiving end of one or two crunching tackles.

    He gave them instead. And his mate Moore pushed his knee into Tracs spleen.

    Way to wave the flag for Gus.

    Maynard not bruised even fairly isn't a great look.

    Especially after all the talk about a response.

     

     

    BUMP AND BUMP AGAIN

    What a lily livered response we play bruise free footy and meekly waved the Red flag. I truly believe some of our players are SCARED of Brainless Maynard!!! Disgraceful non effort words not deeds MFC Cant put a positive spin on it we are Gutless!!

    Not all of the supportes are "soft". But regardless of that, our players should be more self aware.

    Well I have been going for a Loooong time, but after todays insipid effort and that of the last 4 weeks and the coach banging on about "Learnings, Culture, Strong Response, after today I won't attend another game, Why?? because we do not back up our words with Deeds and this is as bad as the Bailey years, Neeld years and even further back 70 and 71!! Im also over Goodwin and his "We're Hurting" Pigs [censored], we are as soft and vanilla as they come. Oh and sorry landers no more P.F Training reports sorry. Really disgusted today!

    Seething that this thug was allowed a free reign and continued to bully us Shame MFC , SHAME!!

    So could you shake his hand. Then next time your mate Gus comes by shake his hand.  They did not need to do anything with Maynard  they needed to play hard concentrated football and all those 3 failed.

    in my opinion

    May was booed louder and more often today than Maynard. Asked the filth next to me why and the reply: "Because May is dirty"

    I'm ashamed of the club today. We've played like trash for weeks now, but not not stand up on a big day like today was so disheartening. Letting Maynard get through a full match of footy without giving him any physical attention after what he did to a beloved demon was shameful. One of the worst things I've say through as a diehard supporter of this club, and I've say through decades of [censored] at this point.

    Mentally weak. Shameful. Disappointing. Our premiership window ends with a whimper while that thug runs around like he's at training.

    Collingwood were cheering Maynard loudly all day drowning out the meekly attended Melbourne supporters boos.

    The guy is a hero for giving someone brain damage. What a crazy F…d up world we live in.

    Had no trouble hearing the boos for Maynard at all, came across loud and clear.

    I was one who thought that Maynard could get his come uppance, but what does it serve. If someone had fixed him up today they would have been missing for 4 weeks (the rules have changed !!). Tracc showed he is respectful of the traditions of the game .

    Secondly Football is a game (albeit a serious one at this level) but  NOT a WAR !!! Let us get things in perspective.

    P.S. Gus was my favourite player, and I feel for how his life has changed.

    • 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.
