@KC from Casey is it true that Howsie was pulled off at halftime? Boots off, no longer playing in this match?

Let's hope no late outs (May)

 

That was a real slaughter, Tigers were really shocking and our system and intensity was a step above.

Great to see Roo get some touch but I can't say anyone else stood out very much.

Only caught the last quarter but great 20 goal win.

Hard for AJ and JVR to stamp their form.

Bye again next week.

Great signs for the club though

Unfortunately, the siren has sounded.

VFL thoughts after watching:

  • Laurie: classy/silky, and generally a decent decision maker, but a fraction slow - in running and being aware of what’s around him

  • JvR: back to his physical / athletic best. A good kick for goal too.

  • Billings: good all round player who is a class above at VFL. But lacks one or two key strengths that would set him above at AFL (and a little slow with a shorter kick)

  • Taj Woey: like Laurie, but even more so, too slow in decision making and not aware of what’s around him and the urgency required sometimes

Phenomenal result considering the scores were level at quarter time.

Good point.

I can’t remember his name being mentioned in the 2nd half

It's normal I believe for the stand in emergency to play a half and then go on standby.

Would not read overly much into it

This. Laurie was taken off at half time in round 1 to be the carry over emergency. Common practice for games played on the same day in the same state.

  • 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.
