A few changes at year end.


obviously BBB retires,

Hunter cannot have his contract extended,

Schache will be delisted

AND Tim Lamb and the footy department to explain why McAdam was given a 3-year contract !!! FFS 

A thorough  review of the footy & recruiting dept is needed on the drafting of these experienced players who have brought virtually zero a team who WERE in a premiership window vs what’s walked Jordan, Harmes, Grundy, would love to hear them explain the strategy around this??

    Fullarton good around the ground but in 50/50 ruck contests getting mauled by Lachie Smith.

    He’s not a genuine ruck so don’t think he has to be elite in this area, just adequate to have a spot in the afl side. He’s had 18 hit outs to 25 so not getting completely destroyed.

    Having Jack Macrae and Ryler Sanders in a VFL midfield is ridiculous.

    If Bevo ain’t playing Saunders he should allow transfer to us. Too good to be playing seconds. Lachie and Jack should get together for a round of golf or Smash Palace Derby. Reminisce about old times.

    If that was 15 metres umpire you’re vertically challenged.

    Hard to watch. The Casey based players are a long way of VFL standard which makes it really difficult for the AFL based Casey players. MacRae and Saunders are class midfielders who are sick of racking up kicks. Our mids are not in this class. 

    Laurie, Pup Brown and a Casey defender have all not been able to hit a target 15meters away and turned it over. Pups kicking would need to improve immensley in both accuracy and depth. There is no doubting his endeavour and ferocity but we need players who can finish of their work.

    Another one to the Dogs - 12.8.80 to 5.5.35.

    KC I’m keen to get your thoughts on the Casey player acquisition and development.

    It seems we don’t have many high quality VFL players in the side other than Mitch White. What’s the reason for this?

    Long story but two of their experienced VFL recruits Connolly and Hustwaite are long term injured.

    Hunter will have to beg Goody to have any chance of playing his 200th game. It certainly won’t be on form.

    Haven't seem him at VFL level aside from ANZAC eve, but I'd imagine he's checked out and looking to call it a day.

    Tomlinson would also be struggling for motivation these days. Can see him on another list next year.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      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?

    • 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.
