Jack lifted his arm to turn a legal tackle into an arm over shoulder. Thought that was to be play on?

Takes umps about a year to catch up with the rule changes

 
 

Glad flranklin missed but they were sooo clean.. amazing how clean they were - its the difference.

Jack Viney 1 disposal...

At least 15 shoves on the opponent though...which is good because it looks like we're getting back to the Frawley/Rivers days of elbowing our opponents in the back before the opening bounce...only to go bruise free once the game starts.


 

Viney 2019 is Brett Moloney 2011. All muscle, no show.

    when we are bad, we are really bad. somehow we manage to drop our bundle better than any other team.



    Richie Vandenberg wasn't captain when the Hawks won the first of 4 flags. Why is Jones. It's over, it was over last year for him. It's much more of an issue that it looks from a glance. How are the young guys expected to take orders from a bloke who does nothing on game day. Nothing

    How about that space around the stoppage for that goal...we don't get afforded that kind of space...

    Our stoppage set up is an absolute mess.

    Cant win a one-on-one.

    We are a shadow of our former selves. 

    I want answers. I don’t buy the no pre season [censored]. We look absolutely stuffed and devoid of any team work. 

     


    Sydney down 1 man.

    Swans by 6 goals.

     

    We are literally trailing behind in every single contest. Bizarre.

    Yep should have retired last year at the latest

    • 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.
