This game has just turned into a rolling maul of packs of players. Thoroughly average television.

Dumb, slow, moronic kick from a Geelong player to the centre of the ground, which a Collingwood player easily intercepted.

    Nice, selfish goal there from the Yank who burned Varcoe who was running into the goalsquare.

    Collingwood player just blatantly runs straight for the line and runs the ball over, not even trying to keep it in.

    Not called deliberate. Farcical.

    That braindead passage from Geelong sums up their day. Fancy kicking all the way backwards to Collingwood's goalsquare to do the switch, with minutes on the clock.

    Idiots.

    Another 100 plus point loss coming up to the Suns, last four games could easily equal a total four hundred points behind... how many teams have averaged 100 point losses over a four week period only playing one top 4 side in that time?

    Probably us at some point under Neeld.

    I don't like seeing the filth happy but if they beat the cats then we should be able to do likewise.

    Howe's best game by far for the pies, according to the rabble commentary, he's playing in the back line... so much for the next Jack Gunston...

    I think an AA punchable head thread should be started.

    Yes.

    Let us not procrastinate !

    Although violent at first glance ,the term "punchable head'" is more to do with someones dislikeability and /or their stupidity .

    Can we nominate BrenT Harvey as Skipper?

    If we win tomorrow we are only two wins and percentage behind second place on the ladder.

    Okay, that helps!

    Different sport but I was just watching race 9 at Wodonga.A horse named Stynes running out of barrier 11 won.

    People on here who want The Filth to win need to take a good hard look at themselves!

    More wanting Geeong to lose

    I hate them as much as the Filth, maybe more.  I hate they get a soft draw, got Dangerfield for practically free and have the biggest homeground advantage in the league

    Oh yeah not to mention their diving and ducking captain

    Wouldn't mind if a mild case of Ebola swept the Arena personally.

    Geelong were off but that was partly due to Collingwood's pressure.

    If Collingwood bring that each week, they're a good chance to push for finals.

    A reminder that we have pressure from below, not just above, on the ladder if we are aiming for finals this year.

    Seems we will need to win by about 120 tomorrow to finish the round in the 8.  Lets do this.

    They look slow and indecisive. Think they came into the game expecting a walkover.

    That's why the lost the 2008 flag and why they lost that game against us last year. They're an arrogant football club. Hate Collingwood, but I'm not a big fan of Geelong either. Such an arrogant bunch.

    They are a confidence team, hopefully the eagles batter them on the scoreboard and physically, demoralizing them for next week.

    Finals aren't an expectation for me this year. What is though, is that we bring the required intensity to all our games, and beating teams that we should. That would prove we are still developing in an upward trend.

    That hit on Gaff should be 6 weeks minimum. That's an elbow to the back of the head. The game has to outlaw this sort of hit.

    4-6 for Jonas. He was involved earlier (another front on?).

      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.
