Half time scuffle

I reckon Viney went straight to Varcoe as Varcoe had just gutlessly shoved Grimes from behind down into the feet of the pack. Probably roughed him up a bit more thanks to the knees

Thats how I saw it as well. Varcoe pushed grimes into the scuffle and Viney didnt like it and let him know. Varcoe wanted to go on with it after it broke up so I assume Viney may have let him know about it during the wrestle.

    Sick of these MFC apologists.

    I thought the Viney tackle at the start of the fourth quarter was even better and I'm pretty sure there was no apology.

    Hi Reverend I was thinking of you Saturday as a couple of friends and I knocked over a bottle of JW Black.

    Did you partake of a wee dram?

    Several drams of Canadian Club Classic 12 Year Old in fact. Sometimes I'm tempted by the colonial interpretations. This one is a particularly smooth and tasty drop.

    It was a memorable and satisfying occasion, was it not?

    Yes it was.

    Sadly I cannot say that one has passed my lips Reverend.

    I need a replacement should I buy?

    Jeffrey Dahmer apologised, too.

    Jones getting stuck into Pendlebury just minutes after the hit he copped from VandenBerg was a bit of a statement and just about the most ruthless thing I've seen from a Melbourne player in a long time.

    Loved it. More please.

    When we beat teams* it is because we bring a bit of mongrel to the game. Not sniping, Hawthorn mongrel, but hard, 'if you want that ball it'll cost you a couple of bruises mongrel. That's what needs to be consistent. We look so much the better side when the mindset is 'That's our ball you have there, boyo. You'd better give it back if you know what is good for you'.

    I love it. Takes me back to the oh so close Northey years.

    *except the Bears, who still would have found a way to lose to us even if we forgot to turn up that day.

    I would recommend it as an occasional diversion from the single malts.

    And we're still yet to have a single suspension for the year. Is this unusual?

    thanks skuit.....you just put the moz on us

    What I was disappointed to see from Vanders upon watching the replay the other day, was that he actually apologised straight away for the tackle on Pendles. I want us to play unsociable, tough footy. Don't apologise, just go them and shake hands later. I like that Jones seemed to sense Pendlebury was sore and went for him.

    Now that the moz is on who are the dollars on? Dunn on Brown would be a good start.

      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.
