    Margetts was dropped for not paying the foot fend off by Greene.....

    And I just read on Hawks Big Footy that Stevic is one of them.....so solve for 23!

    I'm praying for anyone but Nicholls. The game will be worse off with him umpiring, not to mention how much he favours the Hawks. He is a horrible umpire and it still mystifies me how he is employed in a role he is unable to perform adequately.

    Nichols has to have photo's, there's no way known he could get a game on merit...

    there is incompetence when it comes to AFL umpires and....well....then there's Nicholls and his officiating of MFC games.   His sustained bias against Melbourne rules out incompetence (which is random) and leaves you with the unpalatable options of corruption or hatred. 

    I haven't to date been able to postulate a credible theory around corruption so I am left to conclude it is a deeply rooted hatred of the MFC that has a conscious or subconscious manifestation in his match day officiating of MFC games. 

    But make no mistake, it is REAL and he is a cheat.

    On the flip side, it was pleasing to see Rosebury tell Howe to get up after the push from Caddy.   Clearly it should've been a free kick but Rosebury is an experienced umpire who was clearly aware of the niggle being deployed by Howe so let it go.  That augers well for Friday night as there'll be plenty more of that from Howe and Sicily as they try it on our young Dees.   I hope Aaron smashes the pair of them Jordan Murdoch style....

    Nicholls is the worst umpire in the league. Worse than Pannell and that's saying something. Stevic follows shortly behind.

    Disgusting.

    There must be data available, though no doubt the AFL have hidden it deeply somewhere, on the number of frees by umpire for and against each team.

    Absolutely no doubt that Nicholls gives more to the Hawks than most, and fewer against them, and fewer to the Dees and more against than any other umpire.

    Seriously we will need to be a five goal better than Hawks team on Friday to have any hope at all.

    Thanks Gillon.

    Hawthorn will have 23 players now Andy.

    I will try and get the air rifle through the airport checking station!

    • 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.
