Casey 2 goals 8

Probably should be 5:5

 Surely just under instructions (the Melb way!)

    Goal kicking coach or program should be seriously looked at. Missing absolute sitters and so many other set shots. Happens in both VFL and AFL.

    Yze.. strong mark and hits the post from ten metres on an angle

    I'd say 5 meters and a certain gimme goal. Shows some ability but not goal kicking accuracy with two misses in the last few minutes.

    Casey's kicking for goal worse than putrid. 2-9 

    Wasting game dominance, everywhere but on the scoreboard.

    Shocking conversion. Should be way ahead. Is Billings playing?

    3 touches including one average turnover

    Seriously the kicking for goal is amateur standard and that isn't being fair to the ammo's.

    I can see a different style with more ball movement but not sure we have the skilss to play this style. So many turn overs. The best passage was Sestan kickout to a target and then 2 beautiful kicks to position and a goal. The 2nd quarter could get ugly though as the Roos will have the breeze .

    Despite months of training still too many skill errors from the same serial offenders. No names but Billings could not hit the side of a barn from 20 meters.

    Just real real bad

    AJ suspended and 3 talls in the 1sts. We have no forward targets today.

    So frustrating to watch. Billings can surely never play firsts again 

    Was extremely lucky to land on any AFL list chook.  But we are made of sterner stuff apparently and able to absorb the chaff that no one else wants

    Anyone able to tell me what role Langford is playing? 

    Predominantly as a CBA mid

    • 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.
