They spoke for quite some time and Bill didn’t look upset. In fact, he beamed and threw me one of these 🫶🏼 on his way back to the rooms. Love that kid.

Channel 7 already has enough photographers. Your next job is Team Mum. The club should create a paid position.

And I so advise.

    I’d take the job in a heartbeat! They wouldn’t even have to pay me, except maybe chip in for some of the airfare for interstate matches.

    This morning some of the players asked me if I’d be in Alice and/or said See you in Alice which made me sad coz I can’t go. They have a chartered flight there and Clarrie said I’m small enough to be squashed into the overhead compartment, then Sharpie said if he didn’t pack any belongings I could go in his backpack. I laughed… on the outside 😭

    Another big thanks to Ghostwriter, Harvey Wallbanger, Kev Martin and all posters and special comments, a lot going on behind the scenes today with Vines not getting through the protocols. Good luck JV and good to see Bailey Laurie in the 23, good luck Bill and the whole team up at Traeger Park. My wife and I were up there in ‘22 when we won our last game and Kozzie put on a one man demolition kicking six goals against Power. We flew home on the plane with the Port team and supporters and changed planes in Adelaide, great trip, great win and great experience in the NT.👍😁

    Why are we seemingly pushing Kozzy through into this week if he's in pain?

    Surely it would be best to manage him this week and get him cherry ripe for KB?

    Not only that, it usually doesn't pay off playing injured players assuming he IS carrying something this week.

    I didn't see the incident, though after Kossie walked off towards the trainers with a bit of limp. He acted as though he did a jarring action through the leg when communicating to the staff.

    He spent hardly anytime off the field, and didn't appeared hampered by the slight injury.

    In the interests of all our sanity I don’t think we should ever mention Kozz hurting himself at training.

    Edited by Roost it far

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
