I can't remember the last time I watched a game of football and changed my mind as to who I would prefer to win.

Carlton hit the lead and I cringe.

Then Richmond get the lead back and I can't wait for Carlton to get back in front.

What would be the equivalent of a double knock-out in Aussie rules?

    Come to think of it I would love a draw BUT only if both of them missed the finals by half a win with a higher percentage than whoever finishes 8th.

    Yeah, that would be nice.

    For all Richmond's talk about having a great year, making the finals this year etc etc, they have only won 5 more games than us this season.

    I find this funny.

    edit- I would prefer for them to beat that peice of [censored] club that is Carlton though

    It did make me laugh until I realised that 5 more wins meant they have won 3.5 times as many games than us. :(

    3.33 times as many, and that means nothing when the original number is only 2........ FMD!

    Richmond aren't good enough to close it out. But aside from their wins they've had 5-6 losses by under 1-2 goals. I'd dream of our Dees doing that.

    And they haven't been absolutely [censored] anilhilated on may occasions this year, as well as playing a watchable brand of footy.

    So please, don't get on these forums and kid yourselves that we are not much worse off than the Tigers. They are waayyyyyyyyy ahead of us.

    We suck. They don't.

    It is a very competetive season, so there is not much between 6th and 12th, but light years between 6th and 16th.

    Yep, exactly.

    They'd be in the 8 if they could close out games.

    Brock 27 disposals, 10 tackles and winning goal for the Blues.

    And it only took him 3 years to get there.

    Brock kicking the winning goal has broken my heart

    He had a shocking day though. Gave away a lot of frees and looked slow. One lucky kick can't undo the rest.

    And, boy, was it ever a lucky kick! He wasn't even aiming for the goals! He was trying to get it to a team-mate closer to the goals!

    Best bet would be for Carlton to win but they then get done for cheating again. This way they all lose.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • 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.
