Wonder if Greg Healy would make an ok ceo? 

 

let's dredge the complete list of former MFC on-field/off-field leaders to see if we can cough up someone to take over. We can find out if they are remotely interested in the position after we complete the character assassination of the current crew!

    I dont think you can credit roffey and pert with that feat. They almost fell into it as a result of the flag in 2021. You could argue they were at the helm when the numbers plateaud and fell in the years that followed. 

    You could also argue that it happened in their watch and can't they get credit for anything?

     

    More to the point, I have been arguing that the supposed requests by Trac are incorrect if not fabricated. I doubt very much if he would have made the distinction that you are trying to make. I have made other arguments in support of my view as well.

    i'd almost prefer liam ryan

    speedy forwards who put it on the scoreboard and pressure defensively are the key part of modern footy it would seem

    Hopefully Oscar Allen

    Brace yourself. If you've ever been irritated by a celebrity doing a FIFO 'awareness raising' photoshoot, you'll choke on your vomit by the time you know the full Theresa story.

    Christian will be attending the Red Bull training camp overseas rather than attending the B&F.

    Melbourne will look back on their 2024 season at the club’s best and fairest count in early October, but Christian Petracca won’t be there. JAY CLARK explains why.

    Why Petracca will skip Demons’ B&F

    From the POV that he’s training, and under a program of monitoring and watchful eyes, great. Hard injuries to return from and if he’s doing his utmost to tick the boxes that gets him confident and capable of returning to footy, fantastic. Hope it’s smooth sailing and a resounding success. All the best, trac 🤞🏻

    Seems pretty excited to get back into it. Will be good for him after how slowly he had to progress his training post-surgery.

    Admittedly, I have never attended a B&F but the fans do get the chance to occasionally mingle with the odd player don't they?

    It's pretty sad to say, but I'm actually a bit thankful he won't be there just out of fear of a fan, downing a few too many chardonnays and getting a bit 'passionate' towards Christian and maybe whoever he takes to the night.

    Might be best just to stay away for now, get himself 100% for next year and allow everyone to fall in love again once he starts playing wonderful footy and we start winning some more games.

    • 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 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.
