Also take a look at the smug 'We are going to win. This is almost like falling off a log, it's that easy' smile that Smith had on his face as he was about to kick for goal.

"Never Fear...Smith is here..."

    You will find it was a Geelong player walking back who made a smart arse comment to him

    It's on the vision, you will see him walking up and down to his right as he takes the kick

    Sydney V GWS

    Hard to see this game with the stadium half in sun and shade.

    When in the sun the colours are hard to pick ..... the AFL need to have a think about their product !!

    It is just wrong, in the interests of player safety, that Stevie J can in effect head charge into an opponent's midriff and be rewarded with a goal.

    This needs to be discouraged, not encouraged. 

    Someone WILL break their neck one day.  Only then will the usual AFL knee jerk response come into effect.

    That was bloody good to watch. Plenty of heat in this one early.

    Kennedy taken out has unsettled the Swans. He's a pretty important player. Johnson out of the next game will be the fair punishment for taking him out of play and shifting momentum

    The rucks are just not in the game Saty, game has been played very fast end to end.

    Plus Tippet is off for concussion test along with Kennedy.

    He'll get 2, poor record I'd think DT.

    Thanks, was Stevie J a late hit on Kennedy?

    Swans v GWS heating up, some great footy. But GWS have made a massive mistake firing up Buddy Franklin. Did you see his next play bursting through 4 players and releasing the ball!?!? I expect him to go nuts now.

    Two things I now want to see. 1) Shaw get flattened or knocked senseless to shut his mouth. Despised his dad, and his uncle and despise him. 2) Scully get monstered by his own ruckman and get carried off.

    Yup, usual SJ, going to far and it will cost him.

    Kennedy back on, very scrappy game now. GWS look like the much better team but can't find a fwd inside 50 this qtr.

    It's a surprisingly open final. I don't remember so much uncontested footy and paddocks of space in a final.

    Think you need to sit in the dark during half time and few deep breaths, although you did add a bit of extra colour to my reading of the excellent reports

    Ok, can I have Shaw's mouth shut by a knock that doesn't knock him out? And Scully gets distracted by the sound of a jingling bag of coins being shaken by his old man?

    • 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.
