    Suns should give it a shake at least in the first half

    Let's see if there are any colli-wobbles

    My MFCSS has settled in - if Suns win I wont get excited as Port have nothing to play for next week so Pies should win

    Yes good point.

    I forgot next week is a dead rubber for Port. 

    Takes the sizzle out of tonights game now.

    What was that Free to Grundy?  Most of their set shots on goal have come from free kicks or chains from frees.  The AFL want them in the finals at almost any cost no doubt.

    what about the blatent HTB not paid?!?  even the commentators couldn't believe it

    Free kicks 7-3. I'm sure it will continue to expand in collingwoods favour until the last quarter to even it up

    to argue against myself - there will be a bye and Port will want to take good form into finals

    How interesting would it be if tonight’s game was a draw?

    Collingwood loss is much more preferable. There's enough scenarios going on

    Suns are having a real crack

    Another free kick, another goal to the pies

    but the ones they aren’t paying are unbelievable. Pendlebury just dropped it in a tackle. FMD

    Two more HTBs...incorrect disposal.  One definitely had prior in the middle.

    What is the point of having tackles if you are not going to reward perfect tackles where the opponent incorrectly disposes the ball?

    This is NOT football being played to the rules as they were intended.

    The AFL really have ruined the game as we once knew it.

    New rule. If tackled drop the ball.

    A little pet peeve of mine with the game of AFL, when the whistle gets blown for a free kick all the players stop and when it happens a player from the team that wins the free kick bursts away giving that team an insanely huge advantage. Yes if that player then goes onto kick it then it's 50m penalty but by stopping the play with the whistle you stop all momentum or ability for the defensive team to do their jobs because their focus is who's go the free kick.

    It's something I like in Rugby union where instead of calling or whistling the free kick they put their arms out to acknowledge the action and let the play continue.

    Blatant , clear as day holing the ball.

    How the hell do they not see them??

    Or is it a conscious decision not to pay them??

    The filth have got this ... sadly.

    When Greenwood (aka Matthew Newton) gets the ball, does he ever not turn it over?

    True. They also have a mortgage on HTB decisions.

    • 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.
