Excellent win, very strongly influenced by our next generation players.  
My votes:

6.  Rivers  -  BOG!  His week by week improvement as a mid bodes extremely well for our future, both in 2024 and beyond.  
5.   JvR  -  his best game at the level.  Another youngster on a significant upward trajectory.  Huge future for a young KPF.
4.   Windsor  - has shown great potential from his debut in Round 0, and today was his best yet!   
3.   TMac  -  choosing the right option, and pin point passing by hand and foot were features today.  The only ‘elder statesman’ in my votes, but he’s rediscovered his ‘youth’ as a defender.   
2.  Pickett  -  always dangerous, and continuing to build his consistency in the combined midfield / forward role.  
1.   Chandler  -   excellent game as a defensive forward, which was great reward for his outstanding work-rate.

I reckon we turned an important corner today, but next week will be more testing material.

6 - Trent Rivers, has taken over the reins

5 - Jacob van Rooyen, best yet 4.4 could have been 5-6.

4 - Caleb “The Duke” Windsor showed his full range of skills today, had strong impact

3 - Tom McDonald provided defensive excellence , I would also love him to go around again in ‘25.

2 - Kozzie what a great game and loved that he finally took that screamer.

1 - Mr. Ed Langdon back to his best, looks like he is enjoying playing footy again, maybe a new contract just around the corner?

Then ANB, Jake Melksham (makes us better), Kolt, Chandler, Salo, Judd McVee, Frittata is back, we batted deep today, great team effort, no passengers.

Quite remarkable to think that it is more than feasible to say that our best 5 players on the ground were 23 and under. Rivers, Windsor, Kossie, JVR and McVee. Honourable mentions to Chin, Kolt and AMW. Add to that most of our established  'stars' were good to average it's a very encouraging performance.  Sure, it's only the Eagles, but it's a 10 goal mauling.  Not sure if this has occurred often in the AFL.

  • 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.
