It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    The playing group will step up as a collective and wear Geel down by the last.

    Season defining game, maybe career defining direction for some of our stars.

    Friday night, can’t wait!

    Kozzie owes us a big game & our forward line has to function.

    Would be great if our midfield actually stepped up & win a clearance.

    Well done to the dees fans making the trip down. If this was tomorrow I would had gone but there's no way I'm getting there tonight

    We have some good ins

    and we can't possibly continue to play as badly as we have been

    for those reasons alone i reckon we will put in a much better performance. whether that's good enough to win i don't know. Our record down there is not good so unlikely

    but for gods sake can we show a bit of heat and ticker and pride in the guernsey

    and stop fumbling and executing our skills like we're drunk

    get it together

    Go Dees

    I had pencilled in this game to go with a [censored] supporting friend, but with the Dee’s playing so well, I think I will decline.

    Says something about me and my mate Don. Only excuse is we have a family member staying for the week and we have not had access for couple of years.

    But it’s on the TV, 2 hour drive there 2 hours back to watch a hit house loss. No the TV will do. Go Dee’s Yelled weakly Not confident at all. Expect 30-60! Loss

    Understatement of the last four years. Arguably owes us a premiership. Love him all the same.

    With those guns last night, the most important question was not answered.

    Which moronic side did they support ?

    Like most on here hoping for an ice breaking win but expecting a loss, odds are against us. Will tell us a lot about our season.

    I find it very interesting that the very players who should be driving standards and leading our club are the ones who've caused our club the most disturbance. Now whether that disturbance was more media beat up than fact they put us in the media's headlights. On the other side to that is the fact that a new game plan takes time to embed in any side and can be frustrating to all especially those used to success. The big question for this group of over fed ego's is can they still fight for a win. Not a close loss but a win. I think the next 6-8 weeks will define how we see these guys long term. I want to see us hunt in packs, run back and forwards hard and get around each other after every goal, tackle, shepherd, gut run, smother, you name it, I want to see a team supporting each other again.

    I'm annoyed with the senior players and I'll be more annoyed if we get smacked tonight.

    Geelong by 54.

    IF we can all get on the same page, execute skills to AFL level, and show genuine pride in the jumper, then we are a real chance!

    We will find out this evening whether our beloved Dees have it in them!

    Against better judgement I'll be heading down the highway, hoping for an improved performance.

    Last time I was there was 2018 when Tuohy got the a goal after the siren for the win. Time before that was 186 😭

    I was there that day too 😢 The locals weren’t particularly fond of me and let me know after the siren. Let’s reverse that scenario tonight.

    Yeah they've didn't seem too fond of us either, though there was one very lippy Melbourne supporter who was trying to wind them up all game, and that didn't help our cause.

    Was that you? 😛

    Gates open at 3:20pm. The Casey game starts at 3:50pm. It would be great for the Casey boys to see and hear support, so anyone who can get to Mordor early enough to catch even just part of the match, please do this.

    Besides supporting the Casey players, being there for two matches also justifies the criminally high price of a ticket. Idk about y’all but I had to fork out $65 for the privilege of sitting in the away cheer squad bay. God how I hate that club.

    What are the odds of Kossie being a little over-enthusiastic and getting suspended again?

    I can feel it happening

    yeah i feel like we're going to cop the mother of all hidings

    last two games lost by 10 goals, and really gc17 felt like a 15-20 goal loss

    I predict a pretty even second half with an improved effort before slipping away and losing by 5 goals.

    • 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?

      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.
