Interesting to see how Mitch Clark goes tonight. 

Jeez he'd be handy to still have around?

It's on again,Cats & Swans,hard one to pick,cats have got Dangerfield,swans have Buddy,should be a good game.

i'd also add that increasing umps from 3 to 4 just increases the number of frees paid and the number of incorrect calls

and when is the last time one umpire has tried to over-ride/negate a bad call by another umpire? they can't all see each incident the same every time , surely?

Can someone remind me, what was the nett effect of our offloading Mitch Clark?

Certainly looks rusty (to be charitable) at this stage.

 

What an awful mark decision for Cockatoo in front of Cats' goal.  So obviously touched.

Jesus I hate Geelong.  Even more so when they play at Simonds among their feral fans who boo and whine about every decision.

 

I hate them all.
Just some more than others.

The umpires are instructed to ignore four long standing rules each game and make a mockery of the game. 

"Ball touched prior in a marking contest, play on " !!!!  TICK  !!!! 

Lingy is a [censored].

He just explains in excruciatingly dull language, but in an excited tone, what just happened. Makes me wanna scream at the TV 'I know mate - I can see the screen too!'

To add to my hate for Geelong, it's even worse with Ling commentating.  He's already horrible in the commentary box, but his bias for Geelong is so strong you can almost smell it through the television screen.

Anyway, carry on.

" Clear push in the back." No free kick TICK !!!!!!


46 spots available on a Friday night plus 8 on a Thursday night

Can someone remind me how many appearances MFC has on those nights

Our sponsors must laugh at us !!!

Brother of nathan is starting to come on a bit. 

 

Longmire needs to wake before the game is gone.

Mitchell is the wrong match up for Danger...needs to be Hannebury as a run with...

Towers is rubbish.

I wouldn't go that far, but he is certainly the flavour of the month.  Bruce is salivating any time he goes near the ball.

Dane Rampe, on the other hand, is an absolute gem.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    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.
