    The electric hoarding at the new WA stadium makes it very difficult to watch to the game. It’s a massive hoarding at ground level in particular.

    Scully might be a [censored] for gees I hate taking pleasure in anyone getting injured seriously. 

    Broomehead’s injury looks awful too. Poor kid. 

    North game next week is already giving me the cold sweats.

    I thought it was absolute rubbish myself. Try putting yourself in the shoes of an 18 year old who is torn between lying or telling the truth and not knowing which will be the more hurtful. People have so overreacted to that series of events and are now showing their true colours with their nasty spiteful comments.

    I wouldn’t lie to a dying man, looking them in the eye.

    I probably wouldn’t lie now, but when I was 18, it may have been a different story; I would be torn between lying to make his life a little less stressful and telling the truth and giving him one more thing on his plate that he just didn’t need. 

    As I said, try placing yourself in the shoes of an 18 year old with very little real life experience.

    HT. Even as an 18 y/o i wouldn’t lie to a dying man, it’s a long story, but i went to school with a lot of kids who died young. 

    What $cully did to Jimma & the MFC was a disgrace, remember his “dodgy knee” that miraculously came good as soon as he left?

    i despise watching the MFC get bent over, it has happened time and time again, that one stung hard

    I just watched the incident of Scully and he was literally screaming in pain. How anyone can take pleasure in that, I don’t understand. It’s footy, he didn’t kill your kittens. I mean I hate the way he went about things, but gees a fractured ankle is nothing I would wish on anyone!

    Essendons talls are seriously overrated. Daniher barely touched the ball against an inexperienced direct opponent who’s been injured for two years and Stringer was practically unsighted. They won’t make an impact if they make the 8.

    I hate watching Ex dees do well for other clubs. Jack Watts’ 3 goals made me sick in the guts for his Port debut. Watching Howe take speccies and become one of the better defenders in the league hurts heaps.

    But to be happy with Scully copping a 16-20 week injury Is poor form!

    Some horrible injuries today and apologies if this has been posted elsewhere but we don’t want to see this on any playing field.

    I am suprised this doesn’t happen more often, considering the ferocity that players collide in a close contest. 

    Thankfully he is doing ok

    $cully's old man was on the take at GWS before the season was even out.  To crap on with all that "I really want to be a one club player" rubish, when all he really wanted was to be a $ one million dollar player, I'm sorry, but the whole episode from $cully absolutely reeked and I can't believe that anyone would go in and make lame excuses for him, least of all a MFC supporter.

    I take no great pleasure in seeing other human beings in physical pain and agony, but I certainly won't be crying if the karma bus has run over $cully.

    He lied when there was no need to lie. Him and his excrement of of a father had a deal worked out a year before, and even until the last moment he was talking crap. He looked a dying man in the eyes and lied. There was never a need for that. He put the boot in right when we didn't need it.

    So yeah, if he misses a year and never gets that running game back I'm going to smile a little.

    Oh did he? Thanks for filling me in, I was in a coma for those years.

    I can't ever connect sad football fan consequences with actual real life consequences, but okay.

    What an indictment by an AFL captain!   Marc Murphy says his teammates fell into the trap of believing their positive showing against Richmond last week would just happen again against Gold Coast on Saturday. http://www.afl.com.au/news/2018-03-31/blues-got-carried-away-says-murphy

    Murphy obviously didn't notice they had 20 scoring shots vs 38 by Richmond last week nor that many of their goals came from free kicks.  They were scorched last week yet came out thinking they were champs this week.

    While Murphy spoke the truth it is tantamount to saying they thought GCS were easy beats and didn't pay them any respect.  Haha.  Unfounded hubris.  Paid the price. 

    At this rate they are heading for the wooden spoon, again.  Oh, and Carlton need a new captain:lol:.

    • 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.
