AFL need to look into Rhys Mathieson!

It’s just a shame he didn’t try to pull that with Jack Viney underneath a pack. I wonder how quickly he’d transform into ‘Beast Mode’ with an enraged Jack,

    I would have thought he'd get sighted at least.

    He was largely unsighted last night.  You can cite me on that.  :D

    Birchall should be cited for his knee in the back of Oliver as well.

    Matheison is a given. No intent for the ball. Only to maim Gawn

    The Grub of The Year Award the last 6 years has been Toby Greene and this bloke second, daylight the rest of the field. 

    Yes but Toby Greene can play football. And play very well, at that.

    Both unnecessary and designed to injure.

    Know Mathieson is a scumbag, surprised by Birchall.

    But can he hold onto a cup of coffee?! 
     

    Greene really is a star isn’t he, just a natural footy player.

    Back in the day running into someone like that (shoulder charge, off ground, marking contest, no eyes on the ball, no arms up to spoil) would have been called "charging" and he would have got 4 weeks.

    He should be sent to the MRO for that assault on Gawn. No intent on the ball at all. 
    I thought Max was gone…

    He also coat hangered Kossie from behind. Was again just an act intended to hurt and or maim. It was late after Kossie got rid of the ball. It was definitely reportable and really "old school" stuff that Dermie loves but most people including the AFL want out of the game. Dermie laughing going "oh yeah, just made him earn it, nothing wrong with that" Well yes there is Derm, they are cheap and cowardly shots and when delivered by a guy that has no other skill then get him out of there.

    His only two acts that had any consequence out there were his hit on Kossie and then Gawn. These guys are champions of the game and need protecting. Same with guys going past the ball flight in order to put their knee into the back of players. Could end a career. Happens to Oliver all the time. It puts the lions in a bad light and he should be hounded out of the game.

    Indeed. Not sighted nor cited by the MRO because the media ignored it. 
    And how was that to 50 to Max and down the ground from Kozzie. 
    Both were the acts of a frustrated untalented low life.

    Birchall was in a genuine marking contest, nothing wrong with that. Was a hospital kick from Gus I think. The only positive was Birchall couldn't get his hands on the ball and gave away the free kick

    As soon as he hit Max, I got a text instantaneously from a Geelong supporting mate denouncing it as a low act.

    He is a bloke I am just mystified is still on a list. He’s good for a grand total of three things: ducking, sniping and giving himself undeserved monikers which in turn feed a vacuous media looking for their next gimmick to attract attention deficient viewers (see all the fuss over ‘The Weapon’ at Essendon in 2012).

    He sh!tted me when I first saw him in 2016, and my opinion of him hasn’t improved since.

    His opinion of himself exceeds his capability. He’s mouthy and dirty. I’d be embarrassed if he was on our team. Gross.

    He would never get a game in our team. That he keeps getting a game at Brisbane shows their poor depth. Culturally he’s a cancer. I mean he’s also a crap player which doesn’t help.

    Absolutely. Greene is a grub and a thug and I hate him but he’s a sensational player. Top 5 in the AFL when he’s on song.

    They mentioned it in Fox, but only to give a few tips on how to better "hide" this type of indiscretion, with a bit of a laugh to go with it....pathetic!!!😡😡

    Textbook definition of a [censored] bloke.

    Just a disgrace of a human on the field, and with his comments about Sandy Hook, off field too.

    The sooner he is consigned to the scrap heap of the AFL universe, the better.

    It wasn't just the front on contact to Gawn. He also collected Kozzy high and late (can be seen in the game highlights at ~8:40). IMO that has more weight with the MRO. Likewise, the deliberate knee to the kidney of Oliver as he was going for the mark (Oliver was paid a free kick).

    The game highlights only go for 7.56...

    Hopefully Libba coat hangers him into next year as he attempts one of his academy round the neck stages this week

    If Mathieson isn't the worst footballer in the league I don't know who is.

    One fruitcake in that team is more than enough, carries on like he was just let out.

    • 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.
