Looks like a cracker of a day. get there and support the boys, win (yes please), lose (yuk! To these vixxers!) or draw (I’d probably take that!)

After a hiatus caused by my Manorial duties your good old Uncle Bitter will be back at the G today to watch us play the Dorks.

I'm [censored] that Viney is out as I love watching him play. He gets some stick on this forum - and that baffles me. I know he's not pretty but jeez I'd have his name inked onto the team sheet before the selection meeting starts.

JVR comes in and needs to show what he can do. I saw him leading and taking one grabbers in the pre season and tipped him for a breakout year. Confidence is an elusive entity.

Jeffo showed some promise before injury but he is still a question mark. However, as that esteemed judge of all things football @picket fence rates him highly, I expect him to do a bit.

Clarrie is back - please show us you are still the champ we know.

Some commentators on this forum expect Fritta to play a defensive forward role. It's not him. He's an opportunist and a goal kicker - give him licence to do that. If we are going to win today, we need score involvements from Fritsch.

Turner will have to play back. That's not a bad thing as his athleticism will be handy against The Dork's small forwards.

Max is coming up against a decent ruck today so a big one from him could decide the issue.

This is a huge game for us and due to our ****ty start it will be genuinely season defining.

We need a few things to click today but ...... Dees by 21 !

 

I’ll be there with the kids. We have a perfect record against the dorks when I bring them along. I want to keep it perfect.

Go dees

I’m quietly confident, which is a hell of a lot better than I would have been a month ago! We’ve been slowly building over the last there rounds, and if we can maintain the pressure for four quarters this arvo, I reckon we are ‘over the line’. The big question is can we do it without Vines? Of course we can! Dees by 15. ❤️💙

Good to have you back Uncle.

It's nice to have a decent wordsmith here at work with someone footy nous and positivity.

My uncles have all gone to footy heaven except for Uncle Mex of course who was a rabid pies supporter.

So I was wondering if you could adopt me as a footy nephew. I won't expect any birthday cards.

It can be totally honorific in title but it would warm the cockles of my soul. Perhaps the sub cockle regions. It's seems all my Melbourne relatives are croaking. Most of them saw the 21 Gf at least except my dear departed dad who would have been happy as Larry. Well maybe happier because that was in fact his name. You don't meet too many Larry's these days. While it was only a couple of weeks ago, I was saying to my good wife Beatrice... coincidentally another unusually name that I've only met two Larry's ever. One being my dad and another at a servo in Bendigo one cold winters day. I said to him...

Whoops ....I started to lose my train of thought there.....phew...

Go Dees.

My kids will be kicked out of the house if they decide to follow the hawks or any other team for that matter.

That won’t happen though. I’ve indoctrinated them well

Go DWhich way do you button your pants Leavie


Let's go boys! Viney is indeed a big out, but hopefully we can cover him. Claz to step up and Sparrow to run with Day. Think we can do it, but if Hawks get a run on they'l be hard to stop.

Day's not playing, poor kid has a broken foot which may end his career.

Oh my bad, shows how much Hawksball I watch!


It’s game day baby. Pumped!

Let’s rip the wings off the Hawks before they strike.

I specifically look out for your weekly post N34. I'm always "pumped" and primed after reading it.

  • 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 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.
