    What are these [censored] Free kicks for??

    The 50’s are for players running in the protected area. They are being stupidly tight on the rule but we had a few paid like this last year but not 5 in a game. The Hawks game last year comes to kind, a few 50’s for trivial infringements.

    The encroachment of the mark is RED HOT.  Dees need to pay attention to this rule of the week - we cant be giving the [censored] 50 m for nothing.

    I don't think our players watch other games because we invariably do whatever is the infringement of the week the next day.

    You'd think because we play predominantly on Sundays we'd have plenty of time to figure out the rule of the week.

    What a pathetic rule

    Passing on Curnow is Jason Taylor’s first mistake.

    Looking that way right now

    Martin's goal. He ran 25 metres before kicking it.

    He has his own rule book ?

    It's 25 down to 10 for good behaviour.

    He went at pick 12 and even Carlton took him with their third pick of the draft.

    Players develop beyond expectation, it happens.  It wasn't Taylor’s first miss and it won’t be his last.

    It’s something we need to get used to the stars have different rules, how many times does Martin either get someone high in a fend off or drop the ball when tackled, it happens a lot I hope the players are ready for duckwood on Sunday will be frustrating watching his frees

    A big mistake as well. But he wasn't the only one to overlook Curnow.

    Who else did he miss?  I thought we were into Curnow until his convenient misdemeanour...

    He’s missed plenty- it’s not a precise science.  

    Salem over Cripps/Crouch

    JKH over Darcy B-J

    Brayshaw over Lever

    Stretch over McGovern

    Who washed Carlton’s shorts?

    Looks like the white shorts got washed with the blue guernseys...back in the old days when colours ran in the wash.

    And what's with the reflective bum-cheek highlights? I [censored] hate Carlton...wankers!

  • Quote

    Great first half, but it lost all of its appeal in the second half. Carlton couldn’t hold it together and gave the ball away far too easiy, while Richmond couldn’t kick to save themselves and showed glaring holes in their defence. Couldn’t take much away from that game in terms of indicators for the rest of the season from either team.

    It's painful seeing BT in the rooms afterwards. Mindless TV. 

    He's a big fat turd ... I apologise if that comment caused offence to big fat turds

    What this game said to me ...tigers won the premiership with a very soft draw & an injury free list ...take one player out of their side ...Dustin Martin....& they are gone !!! Also apply that to Essendon & remove Daniher & the same scenario occurs ...I am not going to mention the name of the player that Melb  could ill afford to lose ...(he is very tall), however very confident we cover all other positions ...Go Dees

    • 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.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
