Love this. Well done Kolt.

I think next up is Judd McVee on a 10 to 15 year contract extension please. Thanks Tim.

Tim Lamb haters close your thread 

3 young guns here for the long haul 


Bloody Tim Lamb, re-signing all our youngsters. What a disgrace.

The Mousepack is steadily signing up for roughly the remaining careers of Gawn, Petracca, Oliver, Viney, May, Lever, etc., etc. - I reckon recognising how valuable that will be to them, both in the moment and for their futures. And then, hopefully, they will become the group their successors want to sign on to continue to play with!

And, not beyond the realms of possibility, the remaining Melbourne careers of Goowin and the coaching team...

And that useless Simon Goodwin who players love to play under.

And Rivers and Kozzy, need them to be Demons for life

Both are signed until 2027, as they both extended last year.

I dare say it was a good move to re-sign Rivers before he explodes as a midfielder.

I love this kid - but....

Do we jump too quickly with some of the contracts based on a handful of games?

Yes, he's going okay (at best), but has done nothing to warrant a 4 year extension at this point. Why not hold for off 12 months? 

How's the ridiculous Laurie extension looking at the moment? 

Long contract but I like it. Building the nucleus of our next premiership side with these guys.

Exactly the same thing was said about Rivers, McVee and Roo when they originally extended. 
We obviously don’t think we will delist him in the next 4 years and believe it’s better to sign him now on less coin, than what he potentially might be worth in 2 years time. 
You always have the upper hand when a player is in contract when it comes to trading as well. 
It is a savvy list management move that allows us to assess our cap longer term as we try to lure bigger name players from other clubs. 

What has Laurie’s contract extension stopped us from doing? He isn’t taking up a significant chunk of cap, nor would we have delisted him by now.

Four, five if you count Jefferson: roo, kolt, disco, jeffo and Windsor.

This is exactly why I like to lean into known facts rather than the where there's smoke palaver.

Known fact #1

Mutiple players have recently  recommitted to the MFC.

Of the top of my head, that list includes: jeffo, roo  chin, Petty, Windsor, the kolt, AMW (I think) and disco - and I'm probably missing some.

Apply Occam's razor to the question of why so many players, particularly young guns who would def get picked up by other clubs, have decided their medium term future lies with dees.

What is the answer?

“ Lamby Had A Little Pack”

I’m rapt about this. This guy is going to be a gun ❤️💙


"Get 'em while they're concussed", that's what my mum always said.

But seriously, it takes effort not to get ahead of myself on this kid. We've got a deadly weapon in our hands here.

Will be a major part of our 2028 premiership.

  • 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.
