Luke has been coaching 6 years, delivered The Bulldogs with their 2nd flag in its history.  The team plays for him, and competes against the top teams at a level any supporter would be satisfied with.

When can we get this trade done?

    It's funny how the non MFC games thread still ends up as a festival of potting MFC. No mention of the goal review last night either.

    If you all love the Dogs so much, [censored] off and support them.

    Only just saw the vision. The AFL and 7/fox are inept. No goal line vision in Alice and now frames per second that make a difference......followed by a reverse angle where the ball didnt cross the other goal post. 

    Your theory on a final 8 decided in the last h&a round is looking good.

    Dogs have been super flaky. Not sure Beveridge is the coach to bring any consistency

    The title of this thread is misleading.  I was expecting some substance to it at least....this type of venting could/should be posted anywhere on Demonland....Does it really require it's own thread lol?!

    Has there been a response from anyone in the media or AFL? I couldn't believe how quickly the commentators dismissed the vision when it came back after the decision. 

    Even my 2 young kids were adamant it hadn't crossed the line.

    Nothing yet, but you can guarantee they will back the ARC and umpires in.

    Almost certain, as they are talking about what Round 18 matches to put in premium timeslots. We win tonight and there is 5 teams playing for 3 spots - interest is maintained through to the end. Gil wants every game in Round 18 to have finals implications.

    Re 'that' goal, this from the Fox afl site:

    This is where the system is limited; from one angle, the ball was just past the goalpost. From the other side, it was not. The nature of the cameras in this situation, and the way lenses can warp the position of the ball, mean it’s impossible to tell which angle was right.

    If that is the case, they should junk the system until they get it right. As I've argued elsewhere, leave it to the umpire. Umps make mistakes all the time which affect the result of a close game, why are goal umpires' decisions treated differently?  And as we know all too well, the delay of a decision on a mark on the line vs a point can rob a team of it's momentum to get the ball to the scoring end and win a close match.

    Yeah no 'feel good' factor for the dogs winning last night. That was a terrible result.

    11, 8, 12, 7 wins in 4 seasons after winning the flag.

    where do I sign?  if they didnt throw their way to that flag he'd be sacked by now

    Adelaide have made a good start vs Giants.

    Will they keep it going and help salvage our season!

    i'm going to presume not

    it just goes to show how ordinary all the teams below about 5th on the ladder actually are at the moment

    FMD, if GWS go down to Adelaide a day after we terminated our season with extreme prejudice... talk about salt in wounds. Hope... dashed ... hope ... dashed ... <repeat ad infinitum>

    Don't worry, the eventual premier will be a team we beat in home and away, leaving us to ponder what might have been ....

    A team on the cusp of making the finals  should be flogging a lowly side, I mean it couldn’t be too hard?

    perhaps the coach has lost the players?

    perhaps the game plan is awful?

    perhaps he speaks too corporate?

    theyve resigned him when they shouldn’t have.

    the only question I have to ask is...

    Is Cameron the right guy?

    Well obviously? They've just signed him to a new 2 year deal...?

    • 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.
