JOSH WALKER YOU FUGGING SPUD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Suddenly saints need 4 goals to zip.

 

Which will double if another dumb Lions player kicks a goal.

Seriously, it's going to be a 70 point drubbing. Why would you then also cost your team pick 1 by a single decimal point of a percent?! Idiot.

 

oH, good god brisbane.

How dumb can you be?


Well...At least Essendon get the spoon...

Damn it!  Lions have let down the whole comp by not denying the cheating Bombers the #1 draft pick which they simply have no right to. 

Someone should teach Lions how to tank:o!

Oh god as if I needed any more reasons to hate that ducking, diving [censored] Rhys Mathieson.

Seriously, how dumb can a team be to decide to lose by 60 points rather 70 and end up throwing away the chance to [censored] up Essendon's entire drafting strategy in one fell swoop.


I'm glad the Gold Coast hierarchy are not in the same room as the brions idiots right now. Blood and teeth everywhere.

 

10 minutes ago, they had O'Meara by the balls. Accept a trade that suits us, or play for the lions next year, and now?

Welcome to the bummers Jaeger, your syringe is over by your locker. 

Desperately hope Hawthorn lose today and end up in an elimination final week one of finals. They would probably finish on the ladder in 7th place, if the Dogs smash Fremantle.

The Dogs really have no reason to exert much energy if the AFL aren't scheduling their home final at Etihad

I suppose they'll just be rooting for a Hawthorn loss, otherwise they'll be playing West Coast at Domain week one.

Ray Chamberlain is such a show boat umpire. He puts himself in situation and talks to players at times where it's totally unnecessary. Get on with the game mate - you're supposed to be invisible.

Emotional conundrum:

Go for The Filth and see Hawks' finals compromised

or

Go for the Hawks so The Filth don't finish 10th above us....

It will be a total injustice if Essendon get pick 1.

And it is an injustice. So bloody predictable. They enjoy a win in the last round. get their players back and pick  1 and the PSD pick 1.

Hope no good player wants to go to them.

AFL website currently says "Thrashing hands spoon to Lions".

Is that wrong?

Edit: clearly, given the heading just below it says "Lions avoid the spoon".

Good old AFL website.

Believe me Essendon fans don't want the spoon. They haven't won one in decades. Finishing bottom would hurt them more.

  • 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.
