Very good

Thorstrup. Tired second half

Langford Next big thing

Agree on Salem. Cost us two goals against and then without pressure hit their player between two of ours.

I’d drop him for McVee.

I'd swap Sparrow and Melksham. Langford and Lindsay both deserve more credit.

I can’t see why people label Langford slow, he’s quick to think, quick to react, quick to pick the right option, quick to get running to the right position, I don’t get it.

Unexpected pleasant surprise

Very Pendlebury like!

Some of the best footballers I've seen were supposedly "slowish". Williams (Greg), Robert Harvey, Paul Kelly.

Clarry had a few howlers today but he did a lot of grunt work, was pretty happy with him.

Yes at least 3 absolute howlers. Two cost us goals. His endeavour was unquestionable, and he gave his all, but there’s no denying that his execution was often poor.

Yeah but..... given what he has achieved for the club and himself and to bounce back from personal adversity, and recreate himself yep, at least he has done that! He may never be as good as he was but sheeiet he still is a damn fine player, a better clubperson, and I thought his last quarter was phenomenal, won Ultra hard ball, took a few massive hits and kept going. LOVE THE MAN!

Clayton was massive in that last quarter he sure took some knocks and never faulted.

Tholstrup - provided much energy (Until he tired - good return)

Played his best game for the year. That's the minimum we should expect from him not the [censored] he's dished up this year. We are a lot better team when he's playing like that.

  • 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.
