Have noticed over the last few weeks that the adjudicating clowns seem to be ignoring "incorrect disposal". More often than not, ripper tackles are not rewarded, play continues and the "tackling" side seems to suffer in the next two or three phases of play. In the first couple of rounds, I thought the tackling rule was pretty good. Now, it is back to a raffle, and I am sure that at some stage tonight, in a cracking game, the clowns will pluck one, probably in front of goal for one of the teams and determine the outcome. (Of course, if the Dees were playing it would be against the red and blue!!!)

    Loved how he (Toby) dropped the head a bit at the next contested high ball, didn't want it Toby.

    Heard footsteps.

    Probably not a wise thing to do the week your coach comes out and tells you to keep it clean and play within the rules.

    Haha, proves he's not the sharpest tool in the shed, definitely a tool though. ?

    Lewis MFC: Greene GWS

    Hmm think the MRP will judge unintentional, high contact, low impact, one week, down to zero with a guilty plea! It's the love child team after all.

    As is Toby Greene, he's got the most punchable head going around

    Absolutely dangerous, lifted him off the ground and slammed him down.

    Mario Milano would have been proud...

    Not much funny about having a 200kg behemoth making a sandwich with your head between himself and the ground.

    Mumford should gets weeks for that tackle. Liberatore out of the game concussed. That'll seal the deal for the MRP.

    Looked like the umpire called play on there before that 50m gift to GWS.

    Gravity may not be funny, but it exists. Wasn't any different to any other tackle.

    Looking at the replay Mummmmyy not only pushed him in the back (free kick ok) but gave him a couple of extra shoves into the ground.

    This team gets everything handed to them on a plate. Makes me sick.

    The MRP ask one question - did he have an alternative? The answer is yes - stand up in the tackle and not put his weight onto him, so at a minimum it's reckless. Player gets concussed so I reckon it's a week.

    Seemed to give Patton a heap of time too. No way was he taking a shot at goal from where he was. Should have been six seconds.

    • 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.
