He made David King cry. Crying that he didn't get suspended for annihilating Hurn. 

Boohoo Kingy, boohoo.

    At least that superstar Schofield is free to play. His 6 touches will be vital. 

    Don't forget too that his Brownlow eligibility has been protected.  Maybe Gil knows that he is in the lead at this stage.

    Kingy had a point in that it wasnt equal, but his point was wrong - ziebell shouldnt have been given anything

    Only 3 of them were actually effective... so I'm sure the Eagles are stoked they'll be able to retain that incredible output.

    Love that Clarry has more effective touches in one match than Schofield has in two months :lol:

    I was told on BigFooty by some very involved Eagles supporters that we shouldn't judge by possessions alone. I countered that this must surely mean that Schofield would have stopped Tommy McDonald's goal in the dying minutes instead of being completely unsighted. Not much in the way of a response.

    Jordan Lewis on 360 tonight said Viney’s injury was normally a six week one but he recovered in 16 days. He said some players can play through pain better than others and that mental strength has a lot to do with it. Jack Riewoldt then talked about cousin Nick and his ability to play through injury and made the link to Jack.

    I wasn’t a fan of Viney being promoted to co-captain but it would be difficult to find a more inspirational and hard at it footballer or one more dedicated to the cause.

    The bloke was born to captain this club

    Agree. It was absolutely the right decision, even though I too didn't agree with it at the time.

    Goodwin. He is going to be our Sheedy.

    I loved Tyson's comment from the weekend.

    “He’s remarkable. I don’t think he feels pain,”

    “A truck could hit him tomorrow and he’d still play,”

    It's a shame he played in seperate century's to his old man. My team of the century picture hanging on the wall is a prized possession. He will be in the next. At the moment Whelan and Jetta have the back pockets. Viney in the centre. Neitz at full forward and every other position is up for grabs.

    Disappointed to eagerly open this bump and not get a fix of crushed bones and twisted arms.

    The great man is confirmed back for round 8 vs Gold Coast.

    Looking forward to more opposition tears courtesy of our maniacal skipper.

    If we win this week and then get Viney back next week we could through undefeated for the remainder of the season.

    What amazes me isn't just how hard he hits, its that when he GETS hit, he gets right back up.

    He must have a huge tolerance for pain.

    I think I remember reading an interview where he said what he loves about footy is pulling up the next day with all the bruises.

    Rambo. Or the Terminator.

    2 weeks away, according to the man himself. Is that round 8? Sounds about right.

    Called it.

    Second game in, you're supposed to put in a shocker.

    This gun gets a lazy 35 touches and is inspirational and desperate as usual.

    WHAT A FOOTBALLER❤️

    • 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?

      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.
