Deflate St Kilda and not be the only team to lose to Essendon.

Did you ever pee in your own jeans and then spill a drink on yourself publicly soon after to deflect unwanted questioning?

    Only two times and one of them was a number two.

    Thank you for your refreshing honesty.

    Did you "fudge" the number two with a curry?

    It was a curry that caused it.

    I'm watching a nostalgic birthday party for Play School.

    Lorraine Bayley (who was in everything from 1970-1990) was just relaying the time they bought an Elephant in to the room.

    She commented on how huge it was.This was a revelation for me.

    I'm surprised she even wanted to discuss it.

    Well, Wet Toast are now officially out of reach, but North continue to slump.

    Next three games are Port Adelaide, Collingwood and St Kilda. Unpredictable, but on current form...

    Then their last four games are Bulldogs, Hawks, Swans and Giants. Zero wins there?

    It is conceivable we could pass North with just 4 wins out of the 7 remaining games. Saints, Suns, Blues and an 8-pointer v Port would do it!

     

    Bizarre season. Top 7 could all be on 15+ wins, then 8th on 11.

    If anyone out of the 8 is going to sneak in, it is going to be at North's expense. West Coast's draw is too easy and the other 6 are too good to slip out. 

    I am confident it won't happen though. North should win two of its next three (Port, Collingwood and St Kilda) which makes the magic number 12. Port hasn't beaten anyone in the top 8, we are a strong chance to drop the St Kilda game and even if we win it we would have to win two of Port, Hawthorn, Geelong and West Coast. St Kilda isn't good enough whilst Collingwood is very up and down and has a tough draw (they'd need to win three out of Adelaide, NM, West Coast, WB and Hawthorn and also beat Richmond and Gold Coast).

    I would love us to get to 11 wins, even without being enough for top 8, as that would involve at least one win over Port (away), Hawthorn, Geelong and West Coast (away).

    To overtake North would be as good as to make finals. God I hate North. Does anyone know someone who supports them and isn't an absolute [censored]?! 

    If only we beat them earlier this year... So close!

    If you've met a North supporter then you have found a needle in a haystack is what you've done.

    Did anyone watch the Bulldogs v Tigers?

    Late in the game Cameron Ling talked about once a player bounced the ball/touched the ball on the ground the period of "prior opportunity" was reset, has this always been a rule? It was in relation to Dustin Martin gaining possession then going for a run, having a bounce then immediately getting tackled. I've never heard of it and thought if someone's gone for a run they've obviously has prior.

    I think the 7 team need the umps adviser to give them a session on the rules....

    They really have no idea, to the point of embarrassing themselves.

    • 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.
