Love it, yes British Bulldog

And it wasn’t always the toughest kid who won British Bulldog. Skill and smarts came into it.

 

I'm just tired and exhausted. Maybe I was always this way but the last few weeks seem to have really sapped some life out of me. Listening to the DeeBrief poddy right now Caden McDonald summed it up perfectly; it's death by a thousand self inflicted cuts. Watching us lose the same way over and over, watching the same issues rear their head every week without change, watching a game and knowing that we should be in front (sometimes significantly) but we trail by 15-20 points, and just knowing that a team doesn't need to beat us they just need to wait for us to beat ourselves.

Now I was really dirty on Goody earlier in the year and was on the wagon of time for change. I have calmed my stance on that since the 5 wins from 6 run, but he needs to be asked the question point blank by the board; what's being done to fix these ongoing issues that have existed FOR YEARS!

I have no confidence in any of out players to bin a set shot (though Fritta is winning me back slowly). We have lost massive games because of dumb football, ill-discipline, and failing at the basic fundamentals. Now we are at the bottom of the pile for the same reason.

I'm done, as I said I'm tired and exhausted of this. FIX IT!!!!!

There has to be a fining system set up within the club:

  • behinds from within 30m on easy angles = $75

  • behinds from 30-40m no angle = $50

  • all other behinds or misses (out on the full included) = $25

All fines go directly to the Jim Stynes foundation and I would have it be retrospective from the start of the season. I'm sick of us paying our hard earned towards these guys getting paid extremely well, only for them to fail at a basic fundamental part of the game.

How’s this for the most anti Melbourne performance ever:

In the correspondence game last year, we kicked 15.6, had 3 less scoring shots and 21 less inside 50’s… but won.

  • 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 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.
