    Dumbest penalty in play off history right there. Bengals should trade him for sheer stupidity.

    He wasn’t thinking at all was he…I think you’re being generous Gorg lol. He might have to catch the bus back home.

    I have some sympathy for defensive players with late hits because they offensive player often flirts with the boundary and then skips out and draws a soft penalty. They love calling them for certain qb’s and not for others and positional players too.

    But yeah, that one was terrible. They’d both run out and he had to do whatever he could to avoid contact with Mahomes. 

    Would’ve been <7 seconds left and either a 60 yard or so FG or a Hail Mary. Ie. Overtime with the Bengals looking the more promising team in the second half

    I tipped the Chiefs because I didn’t ever want to go against Mahomes at home and he’s just amazing, clearly not nearly 100% and getting it done.

    And because I thought the Chiefs could get pass rush on the Bengals and they sure did. 

    Still, an amazing job by the Chiefs young secondary and Mahomes did just enough with a receiving corps running out of healthy bodies and talent.

    I think the reality is Mahomes is going to have to be miraculously healthier and have some receivers outside Kelce or MVS to win the super bowl. With 2 weeks until the game - maybe they can do it

    Ha ha!

    The current leaderboard resembles the 2003 Brownlow ... if I recall, 3 won on 22 that year, another 3 had 21 votes and yet another 3 had 19 votes.  2 more on 18?

    With us it's who blinks first or we all hold off as long as possible! 

    We're a competitive bunch

    Years ago when the team (Demons) was crud I once made mention here that if the team was as competitive as many of the posters, we'd never lose a game!!

    Hard luck on your 49ers layz, but you needed a fit and fiting QB just to have a sporting chance ... especially in the Eagles house

    And it's always an achievement to at least compete in the championship game.  28 teams didn't make it that far

    Yeah, if he can get back and actually fire then he could be key. Can’t see the run game via the Eagles being a factor. 
    Mahomes gets another two weeks to heal too.

    Haha yeah if you think about how much fight and ticker posters have shown over the years! Not to mention coaching ability and strategy 😝

    Yeah look it's a rough set of circumstances but that's the sport. A good season and a 12 game win streak is always impressive but you gotta have that QB it's just the way it is. The Eagles were very good and I don't even think they were playing at their best, still another gear to go. Grats to @Dappa Dan I know he's out there with a smile right now 😀

    In these big games receiver depth makes the difference and when the pressure is in a QB's face who their check down options are. Hoping Juju gets up because he does offer something a bit different for that offense. His YAC and ability to make defenders miss will be crucial in this one.

    The WR v Corners/Safety is going to be key. If the Eagles can nullify the WR of the Chiefs and clamp on Kelce it’s going to win them the game. 
    For me I’d clamp Kelce and if you get beaten by the WR crew one on one then so be it. But take Kelce out of the game, he is Mahomes safety blanket.

    Sean Payton traded to the Broncos. Wonder if he can fix them, I hope not. I like the broncos but he is a [censored] and I hope he fails spectacularly.

    • 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.
