Good to see a response yesterday. IMO that’s a par win against a club that’s rock bottom.

Question for the panel.

What will it take on-field for you to Trust the team again? Leading into next season.

For me what I need to see in the last 3 games of the year, is them having a genuine crack. I want us to win 1 maybe 2 of the last 3 and if so, I can see a path forward. But if we turn up half interested have to listen to same post match rubbish I’m off us until I see something to believe in.

Are we better than any of those 3 teams? If not doesn't that mean we'll lose to all of them? Of course we should go in thinking we can win them, play well and at the very least not embarass ourselves. But, especially given all the c**p this year, I hardly think three honourable losses will add more grief.

 

I’m not one to look a gift horse in the mouth, and after last week’s final-quarter collapse, a comprehensive mauling like that felt cathartic. But honestly, how much can we really take from a win against a side floundering as badly as the Eagles are right now? They’ve managed just one win all season and were missing key players like Waterman, Reid, Yeo, Allen, and McGovern. I’d go so far as to say most VFL teams would’ve rolled them on the weekend, and any finals contender would’ve blown them off the park even more than we did. The real test comes over the next three weeks against genuine opposition. That’s when we’ll get a clearer picture of where we truly stand.

@Demonland welcome back  👏👏👏WE MISSED YOU

Welcome Home Minions GIF

Lots to talk about 

The good…

Jack Viney - broken hand, no worries - he’s a tough warrior - 8 tackles & 13 clearances. He’s as tough as anyone ever to wear red and blue

Caleb Windsor - well… quiet for three quarters and struggled (7 possessions)… then 9 with his run and carry through the middle and hitting targets … that’s what we want to see

Clayton Oliver. I think we saw glimpses of the old Clarry … he was good and saw some reminders of his run away from contest 

Fritsch. 4 straight. Showed his elite goal sense and classy goalkicking. He’s still a weapon and Dees need to keep him in red and blue

Max Gawn - Led from the front. He’s locking in the ruck All Australian 2025 role. He’s a legend. Surely they can’t think Grundy or Cameron or Xerri are better this year.

Christian Salem - Was brave in defence and I had him in as one of our best. Metres gained 400 , much better impact with the footy (although still looked slow at times and gets exposed too often across the grass)  

Harvey Langford (full name of course ) I think he’s back into rising star contention. Thought he might get rested but looked still full of run. Only knock on him… get a right foot. Even Bont has to kicK it on his right sometimes

JAI CULLEY - great story. He could be a player. Not sure where he fits though. He’s too slow for the wing. He got caught out a few times as Eagles ran past or away from him. Good marking. Good kick. Perhaps half forward .

Loved the 21.13. Accurate goalkicking. Wow. Yes low pressure Yes inside and under the roof

so three games to go. Are we a chance in any ? Unlikely !!! we again had

  • Too many “Missed tackles”

  • Lazy disposal and turnovers

  • Stupid50s given

  • Up and under kicks into forward 50 (need forwards leading and low direct passes)

Edited by spirit of norm smith
Oh

 

Wing positions and predictions. If Jai can lock down a wing role in 2026, where does that leave Lindsay?

Thoughts on seeing Jai/Langdon back on the wing. Lindsay at HB and Windsor continuing an on-ball roll.

Why have the footy department been hiding Jai Culley until 4 rounds to go? He is exactly what we have been needing from any of our traded in recruits. Tall, athletic, able to play forward, wing, mid and can take a great grab and kick a goal. Another blight on our selections throughout the year.

I thought he played much better in the Seniors than any of his Casey games.

I definitely had trouble with Demonland for a few hours post St Kilda. Wasn't sure if it was thousands like me, logging in to vent or whether Andy had pulled the pin on the website in disgust. Either is understandable.

I couldn’t get on either. I just assumed it went into meltdown

Surely @Demonland needs to put out a Post Goodwin Sacking Podcast this Thursday.

The forum is owed one after the Stkilda game.

It's funny I had not heard this podcast until after this morning's news. A lot of the podcast then seemed like ancient history. I know you have more in ife than d land podcasts but another in light of the coach being sacked is needed.

That'd be nice. But I'm sure the sacking will be front and centre in the next podcast (and the teams first game result after it.)

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
