Didn't Carlton lose 12 in a row?

Always far more blatant in my eyes....Nothing will ever change that view.

    I reckon theyve just about run out of stones by now !!

    ..... yeah ..... but they've just gone back and turned the same stones over again ..... I thought Anderson said in his presser only last week that they were still turning over evidence?

    Well, they may as well announce it on New Year's Eve, because once the new year is in and the 'journo's' and the wannabe's get back to their desks the re-hashing will most likely resume, and I wonder if the AFL will ever be comfortable with it's choosing.

    New Year's day would be the go ..... nobody even tries to follow the news that day

    You are giving me a small glow IWS.

    Please be correct.

    Beware of lawyers bearing gifts

    (.... but yes you have put the possibility of a happy new year back into the melting pot)

    I think they have had to re-evaluate some of their original evidence derived from their start-stop tape and questionable duress.

    I really would have loved to see the fink tear through that original evidence in a court.

    He can still have a go at it, but not the same effect :(

    We dare not win a flag within the next five or so years. Surely if we do, the tanking allegations will flare up once more.

    By the time we win one I doubt there will be many remnants left from our extended stay at the bottom. In any case I wouldn't worry. It would be less tainted than Essendon & Carlton's salary cap busting flags of the 90's. West Coasts drug induced achievements, Brisbane's merger concessions trifecta, or either of Collingwood or Hawthorn's flags that were the benefit of creative man management.

    I would take any of there tainted flags.

    If I may offer an idea, I believe the actual inquisition , well the inquiry aspect is over.

    I think its now moved to consolidation and the residual reporting to the powers that be.

    From there deliberation will commence where upon a decision will be made as to which drawer it will sit it for , oooh at least a month id say before quietly announcing the findings during reruns of Macgyver or Knightrider in early Feb .

    That or it will just sit in that drawer in the hope no one actually remembers it !!!!

    Probably in two senses of the word 'stones'.

    Perhaps someone should remind them that Wilson won't let people forget it!

    I met a guy today who happened to be the goal umpire that saw Jordie McMAHON KICK HIS FIRT CRUNCH GOAL EVER AFTER 200 GAMES.

    He seemed a very decent chap and he mentioned that he noticed a definite drop off in intensity in the match .(FROM OUR GUYS)

    I told him that we had two injured in that match and also that we didn't really play our best team because it was only Richmond,

    He saw the ball sail over his hat but still thinks there is no way to prove we tanked.

    He thinks we tanked but he has no idea if we did or not .

    The AFL has no proof that can convict us ,in his opinion.

    Edit:Sorry for yelling .

    Yeah but I met the goal umpire!!!

    Who saw the goal!!!!

    C'mon OD

    That is significant.

    Thanks Biffo but i am worried. Due mainly, but not entirely, to she who both has one and is one, this issue has become bigger than Texas ( or possibly even bigger than her one). I 'm concerned that the issue has become so big and with so many assuming our guilt, that Dumetriou may feel compelled to do something. It worries me that we could be the outlet for the AFL being seen to do something.

    Yes you are correct.

    I just meant the Drop in intensity.

    And as you say you did meet him and I did not mate.

    You know my feelings about that game is I will not labour it.

    I share your concern but if they don't have proof IMO it will end in court.

    I sense the MFC will fight this till the bitter end and I think the AFL know that.

    Big offer from the Vixens .

    No room to move higher than Vlads armpit.

    At least the Vixens is a chance to meet girls at work without seeming like a loser pervert.

    Nothing more to it than that .

    • 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 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.
