It's astonishing the amount of league footballers who still don't know the rushed behind rule. Corr just gave em' a goal.

It’s more the interpretations by the umpires. If he walked it through they might have said he had 2 team mates he could have handballed to. There also seems to be a “prior opportunity “ factor not documented.

    He probably saw Richmond get a ridiculous free kick against Mills last week. I wouldn't blame the players.

    Hardwick out coaching Leon at the moment. GWS just can’t get it past the centre. 
     

    111 disposals and only 9 inside 50s. 
    tigers 90 disposals and 24 inside 50s

    What an outrageous deliberate decision.   Kicked to a contest and the contest stopped the target player getting to the ball.

    The commentary is laughable...and not just Bruce.

    They're making a farce of the game.

    What's going on boy's? why can't GWS get the ball inside 50?

    It's not all about lowering the eyes.

    GWS are playing a depleted Richmond and are barely in front.

    They still can't seem to get the ball inside 50 often enough to be a real threat.

    What do the need to do?

    What are Richmond doing to stop them?

    Come on, give us a clue...

    We can only guess with the camera angles not letting us see what's really going on.

    I know, it's not going to happen but man the standard of special comments in our game is appalling.

    Add that to the ball by ball commentary and it's just pathetic.

    There's something NQR about the Giants. Skills are immense but not enough mongrel perhaps. Greene is elite as is Cameron but they have five plus more that ooze talent.

    Been a good game tonight.

    High intensity,  finals like. 

    And I reckon we can play at this type of intensity.  But can we do it all the time?

    That must have fallen under the 'no DH' policy.

    From the same guy that bought Barry Hall to the Swans and won a flag with him.

    • 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.
