I'm tired of being the Lions' bunnies. Dreaming of another 60+ win against them but more realistically hoping we win - even if only by a point.  Carn ya red legs!!  ❤💙

    It would be so good to knock these arrogant sun-soaked tools off at their dilapidated [censored]-heap of a ground.

    Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    Unfortunately Melbourne coaches and recruiters didn’t understand the importance of having a deep midfield. 

    Brisbane have 10 players that are capable of playing on ball. Dees are lucky to have 5. 
     

    they will run rings around us by shear force of numbers. Unfortunately we are 3-4 midfielders off being a decent side 

    This will be a great challenge especially for the youngsters. Good luck to AMW.

    And I hope we win just to give a big F U to all the misery around here lately.

    Hear, Hear! I’m with you on this, Zephs!!!

    If we win, the big F U might have to wait since the mob of sad-arzes won’t be here coz, well…a win.

    If we win I’ll be the first in the postgame thread to celebrate 🎉

    If we lose, I’m gonna put a massive bunch of space between me and Demonland coz, well… a loss 😢

    GO DEES!!!!

    GIVE ‘EM HELL!

    ❤️💙

     

    Good luck, Monners! 🤞🏽 

     

    Well I'm not holding out any hope. 

    But for gods sake petty and fritsch do something tonight.

    Happy to see lever back though 

    I'm quietly confident we will lift to the occasion and win a hard fought, gritty and at times spiteful clash against a key rival which we will build on through to September. Bring our contest and pressure and we are a very difficult team to play against.

    Hoping to put in our best performance since the St Kilda game and keep the margin very respectable. A win is unlikely for a number of reasons.

    However, win next week and there’s a scenario or two that would have us in the 8 at the end of round 17, or at the very least on the borderline.

    Moving day. play well (win or close loss) and the commentary may lighten up on us a bit.  ( some here might lighten up on each other, too!(

    It’s the start of the ‘backend of the season’ stretch.  I think we have set ourselves for this one.

    Keys:  Match them in contest and clearance  = dont allow massive clearance goal scores like they did against Geelong.

              Contested in their 50 - slow their transitions and make joe the goose play outside of the 50 for his touches 

             Pressure over 190 all game

            Score at least 85 points.

    This is the start of the next phase of the season, AMW to get a look in as part of his development, not sure we can play as tall as listed (?Late change?)

     

    W .   Go Dees!

    Still not confident of a win, very much the other way. But Lever back in solidifies the backs a bit. I see Tmac giving Max. Rest swinging forward it back where needed. 
    so perhaps it will not be a 50 point loss, with the back line working.

    Monners in for pup   I am disappointed but if they knew it might happen, not concerned re development.

    our mids will need to work better. Rivers to stay, he looked a natural in that position. I hope Sparra can come good. Viney is doing too much. And max, hit it to our blokes. 
    our forwards is why I think we will lose ,  

    JvR to stay on the ground the whole game, fritta and petty do something.

    and Kossy cause mayhem just run anywhere and get clear. If no one else is contesting the mark. Go for it !

    Go Dee’s   35-40 pints I think.

    If nothing else, this year’s AFL competition has shown that anything can happen on any given day.  Maybe the ‘Footy Gods’ will be smiling on us for a change ……. after all, it must be our bloody turn!  Dees by 3 points.

    Do they think we are Nth Melbourne?  I hope someone shows the players that and asks them to show the footy world what they think of that level of disrespect.

    Perhaps Sparra to run with Zorko ?

    Chin with Ashcroft . 
    If Oliver tagged too heavily swap him with Kossy.    Is there a plan C or D ?

    Just have a crack lads.

    Imagine the minds blown if we can pull this off haha. Media wouldn’t know where to rate us anymore (to be fair I wouldn’t know either) 

     

    Fritta and Petty do something. Sparrows time to lift.

    I have the belief that the situation up in Brisbane is the same as in Port.

    Wasted great lists and home ground advantage for years, and the coach could be sacked soon due to lack of finals success. Although Fagan has more credit because at least they got to a GF unlike Port.

    I do hope we can contribute to that this week 🤞🏻.

    • 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 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.
