    Dee’s by 35…. The TMac factor!

    I would shake my head and wryly laugh if/when our backline actually functions better with Tom McDonald.

    Been away working and travelling for 4 or so weeks. A lot of travelling through N-W Europe a lot of places to visit and a lot of reports to write.

    I get back and our season is done and dusted. Nothing really left to,play for. Damn it.

    Still my heart rules my head still… Dees by 30.

    I'm actually feeling very confident on this one. Despite the last few losses we've actually played patches of good footy. I expect it all to come together today.

    Dees by 40pts.

    After a few weeks absence, your good old Uncle Bitter will be attending today.

    I'm hoping for -

    Kozzie to kick a bag because, win or lose, he's a highlight.

    Max to have a big one and maybe tie up another AA.

    For us to look like we've got a functioning forward line.

    I actually think we'll win this comfortably. Dees by 27.

    I was gonna start a dedicated thread congratulating Goody on his 200th game as head coach (only the fourth MFC coach to do so) but it’s a given that within five minutes it would be hijacked by folks who want him gone but can’t/won’t say it without insulting him, and can’t/won’t say it once or twice, but insist on saying the same thing over and over and over and over again.

    CONGRATULATIONS

    ♥️💙 GOODY!!! ♥️💙

    Dees by my boy - and future MFC ⭐️ - Luker 44 pts

    i took the $4.30 on north to win

    go north

    I got them at $4.50 (I back against us every week and have done for almost 10 years). But I’d never say Go North. Shame on you, BDA! 😂

    It’s game day baby. Pumped to be back at the G.

    Surely we win this. Nth beating Melbourne is the football equivalent of my toaster winning MasterChef.

    Go Dees. Please don’t disappoint me.

    I’m 6/6 from tips this week making up 5 in the family footy tipping. Pies supporting wife and in laws on the Roos. Come on dees.

    Manly ferry for fish and chips for wife’s bday so surreptitious game updates required

    I’m hoping for a win by such a big margin, that there won’t be another post in the ‘Time to Go Goody’ thread for a month.

    ………. but I’m tipping a margin of about 4 goals in our favour, after a hard fight.

    I’ll do my best to ignore the “Time to Go Goody” thread for a month, should the unthinkable happen.

    It is incredibly gusty in St Kilda. Forecast suggests it'll hang around until the game starts. Would hate to be playing local footy today.

    Thankfully rain looks unlikely until after we're done.

    North will come in sniffing a win today. I hope we fight fire with fire, we have mature bodies and need to be on it early.

    True but of course we survived 2012-13 where I think from memory I attended 4 wins in 2 complete seasons….now those were tough times

    • 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.
