What a day to suffer the stupid policies of the AFL and Big Pond (or is that Bog Pond?). Living in Thailand, I've suffered long enough, not being able to view videos on line because of AFL/Big Pond copyright restrictions on any online viewing outside Oz.

Now they've extended this ban to radio broadcasts as well !!!

Now I'll have to wait until someone puts up some highlights and the theme song on You Tube!!!

Stick that up you Bg POnd!

Wow!! I just looked up the scores, is that correct or are the philippines Beers playing tricks on me!!!

Maybe last weeks effort has finally sunk in. 4 Quarter efforts Demons, at either the MCG or on the road.

See what the Results bring you....Now have a late run for the finals-it is possible.

How is the Big Jimma's Health?? He would be smiling today.

Yep, pack of absolute pricks at the afl. They want to grow the game overseas but you cant watch or listen to it outside of australia....

And you couldnt even pay to watch this game online at omnisport.tv.

Telstra are the worst phone company on the planet-The Clubs should be able to stream their own games independantly, i hope it happens one day-The AFL just have no idea about people travelling overseas.

Big Jimma is sitting on the bench doing some "live" crosses" (game is 3pm on tv game in Melb) and indeed he has a smile on his dial>

Try living overseas!

The AFL have no idea about what to do on the net, and then how to implement it. Go back 10 years and they're just like the record companies were re music downloads. The ridiculous thing is that the longer they fail to grasp the nettle, the more opportunities it opens for others.

Awesome news. I hope we had a good turn out in the crowd-Sounds like Jack Watts is starting to come to terms with his AFL abilities. KEEP GOING JACK.

I have lived outside Australia for 16 years - Thailand for the past 10. I keep up my membership and as soon as my salary comes this month, I will contribute to the Debt Demolition.

I don't blame Melbourne for this dumb down. It is short sighted thinking from the "wizz kids" at AFL and Big Pond.

Today was even worse, because the Australia Network (ABC satellite TV) had the Doggies v Freo. We had a good run from them earlier in the year, but not on much lately.

Surely someone must be able to understand, if they want to expand the game outside Oz (as we should), they should get out of their small island mindset

Perhaps Jimma and the rest of the club can start the ball rolling for fans EVERYWHERE - not just in the "little pond'...Big Pond ...what a name - full of water hahaha!!

I listened to the game on the AFL Site and I'm in Europe at the moment. I couldn't get it at first and my son sent me a text telling me to re boot I did and it worked after that I'm still listening to the summary.

I do live overseas. I work in the music biz too - used to be called the "record" biz - so I know what you mean and agree entirely.

Their small minded attitude will open up opportunities for others - eventually.

I wouldn't even mind paying for LIVE streaming - well at least a realistic fee - not this whimpy replay for a stupid price and days after the event.

Things would've gotten really serious had Carlton lost last night - would've been just 1.5 games out of the top 8. But not to be.

The win alone 'wins' us respect and we should set a goal of winning 3 of the last 5 games. We can start thinking about finals next year IMO.

Yes i love watching the Australia network, as an ABC employee it makes me very proud. But yes the Dogs & the Shockers did not inspire me, as was last night Geelong v Brisbane!! I went out.

I was able to listen via the AFL site earlier in the year. But the past few weeks - nothing.

I also tried direct via 3AW & MMM same issue.

I hope your son is right - I would have done anything to be able to listen today...well nearly anything !

Australia Network is a great service to all us overseas Australians. It also provides a good service for anyone wanting insights into the country and what Australians think about things like the recent turmoil here in Thailand.

I only hope when the next round of bargaining for AFL rights comes up, it is able to do maintain the rights for footy.

Australia Network is a compilation of all the Australian Networks, with the ABC being the Main Source, so i think the AFL & NRL coverage is safe overseas. It may be a requirement by law-as a service to ex pats. I will ask when i get back home next month.

    2024 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The move of “Disco” to a key forward post looks like bearing fruit. Turner has good hands, moves well and appears to be learning the forward craft well. Will be an interesting watch in 2025.

    The Demon’s key defender and backline leader had his share of injuries and niggles throughout the season which prevented him from performing at his peak.  Date of Birth: 5 March 1996 Height: 195cm Games MFC 2024: 18 Career Total: 178 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 5

    2024 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Lack of preparation after a problematic preseason prevented Oliver from reaching the high standards set before last year’s hamstring woes. He carried injury right through the back half of the season and was controversially involved in a potential move during the trade period that was ultimately shut down by the club.

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.
