JEFFO 2!

 

What a like about Jeffo, he looks like a young man on ground, not a kid. He is bigger and more confident. 

 

JEFFO threads the eye of the needle! Drop punt the choice of true professionals.

Jefferson staking a claim. Had some much better games in recent times. Be a big call to play him against the Lions but he must be close. His body of work is better than Kynan Brown's with regard to selection criteria.

This is like watching under 10's football..

Was just going to post how much I’m liking the this game day thread due to the lack of insulting behaviour. Then I read this. 


I wonder when posters say things like "petty/oliver/fritta etc.) need to go back to the 2nds", if they have any idea that there is zero talent in the ressies ready to replace them?

So you think it's top standard do you and you are right it is insulting to under 10's.

Started the quarter playing great footy then ended up hopeless. 
 

Awful down field free by McAdam to concede a goal, a few dreadful Schache moments and Laurie invisible in the middle.

Should’ve dug in and had a lead or at least be right with North

One team with great accuracy able to find targets at will while Casey continually turn it over.

Yep skills are pretty ordinary in general so far.  Been costly too.

At least three goals directly after sloppy turnovers in that quarter.

Our finish coming inside (eg;  Billings and Moniz) was bog ordinary.

Then you had Shack & Woe going up in a 2 v 1 contest under a bombed ball.  Surely one of them (Woe!?) would recognise it be more sensible to hang off and potentially crumb?

Woe potentially injured out of that.

Where / who are they learning this rubbish forward play from?

Coach killing stuff.

You have a way with words 3165, then complain about how others come back at you. 
 

Have you ever, thought or been told, that your communication style is off putting? 
 

if not, let me be the first….

Yes its dire. Billings, Fullarton, AMW, McAdam, Laurie should all be knocking on the door but are all scratchy at best.

Jeffo has had some good moments and as KC said, Smacca has had some X factor moments too. 
 

I would like to see more of Sestan, the kid could be very good.

I only come back when people don't say why I'm wrong try that for a change it's called discussing a topic as for being off putting don't care don't read or reply if it upsets you if you do reply bring something to the table to talk about.

Edited by demon3165

It was your style of communication I pointed out. Never said you are wrong! But in this case the standard of football is much higher than under 10’s. 
 

But, to be fair to you………….. The standard of this game isn’t exciting me much either. 
 

See what I just did here and pointed out???

Instead of targeting a key fwd in the trade period, we elected to recruit billings and mcadam. We also gave contract extensions to schache and Laurie. All 4 are struggling in the vfl and is a big reason why we are struggling this year.

 please keep the game comments coming,  not the dribble

  • 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.

  • 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.
