p.s  if it's not too much trouble I'd love a gif of Brayshaws mark and goal at the cheer squad end, followed by the crowd shot of the woman waving her scarf and balling her eyes out. Loved that moment

    Please, is it possible to make these non auto-play ???   just appearing in static image, until clicked on?

     

    It effects those in remote areas, with slow internet speeds.  And makes the PC slow to load other pages.

    There are 10 gifs playing, on one open tab page... slowing the graphics.

    lol.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

    Pray let it be a Melbourne-Collingwood  Grand Final. At least we get the opportunity for revenge for the 1958 Grand Final when they prevented us from winning a record six consecutive Premierships (viz. 1955, 1956, 1957, xxxx, 1959 &1960)!

    To beat Collingwood by a point with a Sam Weideman goal kicked after the siren would be a wonderful sight (especially if the cameras were all trained on Eddie McGuire)! ?

    Ok dumb question... how do you get the video in the first place? Do you download the entire game from somewhere, or record it digitally somehow?  My game replay is sitting in the IQ but I've no idea how I'd capture that in a video file. 

    Yea i have it digitally. Bigfooty melbourne board has a replay archive as an easy way to download the game or im sure it will be on YouTube at some stage.

    stopping a gif auto playing does not affect your internet bandwidth

    gifs are downloaded in full whether auto played or not

    Well it might be slowing the computer when 10 gifs are rolling on one page at the same time?  or something else is?

    Can I stop these from auto rolling within my PC ?

    I would prefer to just click on them, to watch it once?   rather than a page full, all going like carnival lights.

    Just watch every Melbourne player's reaction on that bench. It's a work of art.

    JONES: "I can't even believe how good these kids are."
    SALEM: "Yass! Wait, don't draw attention to yourself Christian. Keep it cool."
    WIEDEMAN: "Eh…it was all right. Better kick it but."
    SPARGO: "Lemme at em. Lemme at em. Oh I probably shouldn't run on the field though or they'll wipe our score. Probably just sit down."

    funny stuff.  i remember thinking the other night similar things.  They look like us.  Fans.  brilliant.

    thanks DC. I just did.

    I went to look for answers.?

     

    And found these instructions, to sort the background Gifs from auto-playing...

    https://au.pcmag.com/browsers-reviews-and/48436/feature/how-to-stop-gifs-from-auto-playing-in-your-browser

     

    It was simple.  cheers.

    but.....stopping them is not going to solve your perceived problems. .i.e. bandwidth and cpu impact 

    i find it ironic that someone who likes visually polluting their posts with strange use of caps, highlighting, mixed fonts, spacing, font size, colour changes and myriad other visual desecrations is upset at auto-playing gifs

    but each to their own. if stopping your gifs playing makes you happy then great

    You know what to do. 

     

     

    Full credit to our resident @david_neitz_is_my_dad  GIFmaster for that one.

     

    First request -  Petracca laughing at James Sicily after he was outmarked by Melksham in the last quarter.

    Wow. Have a look at Bruest trying to stop Viney with a kicking motion. That is dangerous and should be outlawed. Has the potential to break legs. I am glad he has the worst two finals in living memory (well maybe not as bad as 'neon Leon'

    I not bothered by one Gif, but about a whole column of Gifs, all auto-running at the same time.

    But that's all fixed now, thanks daisy.

     

    And I got the news programs background  advertising auto-run Gifs as well,,, with the same hit.

    Its only desecration to the boring, and the bored, DC.

    • 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?

      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.
