    Saying season best season for Salem is funny, can’t have much worse games with his season being rubbish.

    Dunno why it took until the very last game of the season for Roo and Petty to start flying at every contest...

    3 word summary of entire team - FORWARD LINE CONNECTION!!

    There was at least 3 or 4 kicks into the forward line that, if they had hit their target, and that player kicked a goal, the Demons could of won!

    Salem's disposals were accurate and well-judged, and far better than those of some of his teammates.

    Thanks ' @joeboy ', for another season of 3 words.

    Always the first thing and often the only thing I read after a game.

    Much appreciated mate...

    Bit harsh on Langdon. I barely noticed Nick Daicos apart from the flopping.

    Joeboy… very much appreciated 💕

    The first thing I do on the train/plane home every week is read your analyses, it’s a must.

    I especially understand what it’s like to submit regular posts only to at times be savaged, so please know you are muchly appreciated!

    See you in ‘26 aka our annus mirabilis. 😉

    Thank you Joe for once again this year giving us your player review after each match. I hope you will front up again in 2026. Demonland without you would be a serious loss. A parting comment on your last player “ dull as always” why he keeps getting games is beyond me.

    I thought Rivers was really good ,still plenty of upside, only criticism and he isn't the only one would be lowering his eyes when going inside 50

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
