We’re evolving. First year players in Lindsay and Langford start on the wings with Langdon on the interchange…since when?

Lindsay played pretty much the entire game on the Warne Stand side…the new Langdon.

Don’t look at Petty’s low disposal count as a negative, he worked Sydney’s best interceptor in McCartin over all day, a selfless game.

Enjoy a marvelous win all.

    That’s a great team win, still building and still room for improvement but we’re heading in the right direction

    HUGE.

    In reality a demolition job. Should have been 80-100, but for our wasted chances and the swans’ accuracy.

    But it’s all good (mostly - please keep on practicing goalkicking lol) because it’s the best we’ve looked all year I reckon. Bowza, Salo, Clarry, KOZ, so good. I’m missing plenty because guys like Disco were huge out back. Langdon kept on running. Max was important as always.

    We’re in it! Big win next week and we square the ledger, then work towards getting stuck into the pies and building on this momentum, confidence and the genuine happiness they are showing out there. Upwards trajectory continues.

    Go Dees ❤️💙

    Terrific Claz game, and vintage Salo, almost had a stroke when I saw him in the first centre bounce

    Need to find a proper partner in crime for Petty, JVR come on down?

    Sydney is very lucky that wasn't a 20+ goal belting. They were equally as bad as we were good

    Lindsey was absolutely cooked by the last, Works bloody hard and uses it superbly. GUN!

    Windsor and Langford just as exciting!

    Kozzy could've kicked 8+ today. Unreal performance

    Running out of superlatives for Max. Career high tackles today. Keeps finding ways to raise the bar. AJ provided solid relief and set up at least 2/3 goals with clever little tap ons as well.

    Another week of the super sub! Two goals for Sharp in that final quarter.

    Only negatives are that Lever looked rusty on return and Spargo looked pretty ordinary before he was subbed.

    Stats wise he may have had a quiet game but AJ’s pressure and getting a hand to the ball in our f50 resulted in 3 to 4 goals today. Does the dirty work well, just needs to polish other areas

    Tracc’s mum saying “love you, [censored] great win” was gold

    Tracc was being interviewed on fox and Oliver came up and game him a big wet one then Tracc hugged him. Was awesome to see the close bond

    WE ARE BACK (I think).

    GO DEES.

    Fantastic win! I reckon that was our best performance since the time we played Sydney in early 2023. I could tell from the very beginning that we were on. Our pressure was through the roof and we moved the ball with speed and dare. I was worried that our inaccuracy early would hurt us but the exact opposite happened.

    Pickett is a [censored] machine. He's already had two of the best games from a small forward that we've seen this year. Oliver looked as good as he has in two years. He's rediscovered his confidence.

    Also a special shout out to Sharp. He played the ultimate sub game. He had an impact as soon as he came on the field.

    It's always satisfying beating up Sydney like that given all the trouble they used to cause us.

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G.

The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
