Turner for May is obvious. McVee comes in, I'd make the change for Sharp, but then not sure who gets the sun. Melksham perhaps.

Not sure Sharp deserves to stay in

Personal reasons?

I reckon I know what it is. I’ll DM you.

 

Sorry but fritsch does not deserve a recall after 1 game.

Tomorrow night I better see him chase, not be selfish & not get in the way of other forwards

Good changes, Fritsch and Melk have never worked inside the same fwd line. But fritta still has to perform or he is out again.

I do like our fwd line with just 2 talls, especially if we can play like we did v the dockers!

Can't say I'm thrilled about it either. Not because I don't want him back but we need to set standard of work rate in that forward line.

Hope he brings it.

Good changes.

Only missing 1-2 from the 22 now

Having Bowey, Windsor, Lindsay, Kolt, McVee, Langford, Pickett in the same team makes a HUGE difference.

Skill, pace, youth

One win can make a big big difference

 

After strong Round 6 showings, the Dees and Tigers are set for a blockbuster clash, in front of a sell-out crowd. 

from MFC website, still lots of tickets don’t think it will be close to a sell out??

Fritta getting dropped was about giving him a kick up the [censored], it was never about him kicking a bag in the magoos

Thrilled our forward line savant is back

No idea if he can actually play but having AMW in that mix would be fun

Would've liked Melk in to tag Vlastuin, and stop the intercept mark, less of an issue with Balta hamstrung by the ankle bracelet after dark.....

Fritta a perfect opportunity to stand up now!

Not sure about Fritsch getting an immediate recall after a so-so VFL performance.

Saying that, if we play like we did against Freo, Fritsch will be one who'll highly benefit.

Fritsch, was disinterested and lazy last week and he gets a call up???? PARK ME club is rewarding mediocrity NOT GOOD ENOUGH!


I guess we will see if Fritsch has learnt anything from getting dropped despite not having to earn his spot back in the vfl first. Hopefully just the fact he knows he’s not an automatic selection will be enough. I hope Goodwin has the balls to send him back down if he still has his bad habits.

With Melksham being managed not ommitted who do you suggest be promoted in the role that Melksham plays or should I take a guess? No forward looked worth anything at Casey last week based on what I saw but a role needs to be filled and the Fritsch will know if he does not perform he will be back out with Melksham back the following week. He should be given a defensive job on Vlaustin and be purely assessed against his ability to execute it.

I am with you played 3 quarters of poor football at Casey and back in. He had better get a couple tomorrow night.

He cannot play that role, there is a hardly a defensive bone in his body.

Why would you play him down back he would be a disaster.

  • 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.

  • 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.
