Since the Bombers won a final 

Has there ever been such a fall from grace? The best team in the league to a laughing stock. And they say the Demons culture is no good? Culture and arrogance killed and are continuing to kill this horrible club

Heres to another 20!

    It is written in the stars, after all we lost to the replacements.

    There's another 'streaky' thread might suit this better, Red.

    Although, thankfully, we haven't had to see it for a while, its raison d'être having been progressively and greatly reduced in these recent successful years.

    I remember that Final when they beat us.  We were coming back strongly near the end, less than a goal behind, when Brad Miller gave them a downfield free , leading to the sealer for them.

    Although we lost, this was one of the most electric finals I can remember us playing. When Wrecker Whelan laid that bump (when you could do it) on Hird which lead to Johnstone's running goal at the city end the adrenaline cranked up to 11.

    Pretty sure the 21st is guaranteed even if they make finals next year.

    I'm always uncomfortable slagging off other teams, considering the doldrums we have been in for lengthy periods of time.

    It's probably useful to consider that Individuals within regimes come and go, and the entire edifice of Essendon, particularly post substance use has been reworked from the inside.

    Carry on though... 😎

    It wouldn't be half as much fun if it wasn't for the media pumping them up and inventing new catchphrases for them every single year.

    Maintains the social licence to continue mocking them.

    Appreciate the alternate opinion Mr. Onion.

    However, considering the decades of abuse we’ve copped from bombers fans I think they deserve a bit back. 😊

    Trudat. But their fans were, still are, and always will be the most repugnant, obnoxious uncultured swine. That never changes.

    NEVER FORGET how awful their fans are.  Long may they suffer.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • 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.
