Luke Darcy should never Commentate Footscray  games. 
it is embarrassing 

 

Nothing against brisbance because I like them, but I hope the dogs win tonight just to go above collingwood and jump ahead of essenscum. 

less game time is definitely keeping things exciting for longer, and there's been some cracking games - gimme a close game over a blowout any day (unless it's us doing the blowing out!)

if witherden really is available i would hope we'd be keen

mcluggage is a gun; amazing that mcgrath and taranto went ahead of him; both good players but mcluggage is a pearler

Don’t you mean he should never commentate any match.

    Zorko is a star. To think he was overlooked in 4 drafts and rejected by the Suns.  
     

    Neale does get a lot of contested footy but also a lot of soft out to the back handballs.

    Fair enough, each to there own I guess i don’t find JB anywhere near as bad as Luke Darcy.

     

    Didn't get a chance to watch the Tiges/Port game but listened to a fair bit of it.  Sounded like it was a cracker of a match.

    But how would have our team have measured up against either team?

    Check out the Jacket Brayshaw is wearing tonight!!


    Gee Fagan’s Lions are so impressive. They play with speed and ferocity and know each other’s games inside out, it seems. Dogs starting to look all at sea, with crowds and umps against them

    At our best, we might have challenged Richmond.

    I haven’t seen it yet but will keep an eye out for it, one thing is for sure JB thinks highly of himself.

    We would have lost easily to both teams.

    I think Port played far better last night than versus us.

    We don’t have the ability to maintain intensity and focus for a whole game like Richmond and Port did. I think we would have given up an classic 4-5 goal early lead and maybe come out even for the remainder of the match.

    Think both teams beat us by 5 goals + on last nights performance

    If Port had kicked straight would have been an easy win for them. It looks to me that Richmond is beatable. Got back in the game 3 free kicks for goals shouldnt have been a close game

    Noticed someone in the Port Adelaide crowd last night who looks like Saty. Has he jumped ship?

    Agree... media are talking up the game which I suppose can be justified in the lead swings but really Port should have won by ten goals.

    Hardwick's coaching was nothing spectacular. Should have slowed down the game and used his key forwards better.The fast game favours Martin so I suppose it's a trade off issue

    I thought the umpiring standard was well below par AGAIN.

    Also where the frees were paid resulted in quite a few score assists for Port.

    Eagles v Carlton... (yawn)

    Could do with Carlton wearing a clash jumper. Close in colour especially in the wide angle shots

     

    West Coast are playing like they just had to show up for the points. They are paying the price for it so will wait and see what happens after 1/2 time.

    Bad weather in Perth but not as bad as the umpiring.

    • 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.
