If it goes like it seems it will, how much pressure will Buckley be under, especially now his big brother protector has moved on?

When is Greene OOC and can we get him

 

i want a hated player playing for us 

3 years left to run

 

On Kayo tonight, I watched simultaneously GCS v CAR & COL v GWS. F'n great service for $5 a month.

The tackle wasn't out of the ordinary (wasn't paid as late) and Dursma's leg locks/hyper-extends as he lands causing him to buckle unpredictably. Nothing in it.

 

So you're saying the umpires never miss things?  The tackle was clearly late.  See what the medical report has to say, but if he's ended a kid's season through a late tackle then he shouldn't be playing the next week.  It shouldn't just be for concussions.

Goal Umpires are Redundant 

Are you saying they might go the way of the tram conductor? But i loved the tram connies....

 

Wow pressure on buckley now and he hasn't got his mate Ed there backing him up. Wonder how Ed enjoyed that tonight. 

I just can't believe they knocked the pies off by 5 goals, I mean the giants are so injury depleted and they are important players to.

Trouble at Mill in Pie Land

They booted the wrong players out


Hate to say it ... but Darcy Moore is so good.

And for some reason I don't mind Daicos. Pretty much hate the rest.

I might pop over to the Big Footy/Filth board.

Also saw a bit of Leicester v Newcastle on a split screen of the last quarter of GCS v CAR. Turned the sound down - was awesome... 

The filth. LOL

Would he be just as heartless in the red and blue??

One can only assume. 

id target Greene and Whitfield 

Saints beat WC and Giants beat pies.

Fair point about the umpires but after watching it about 10 times, I don't think the tackle is the major influence on the injury. His knee hyper-extends just before the follow-through of the tackle.

I'd be very disappointed if a player in a red and blue jumper - in the same situation - didn't lay the tackle.

Carlton and Gold Coast are both sh it.  
Either should be a 4 point given for us - if we’re fair dinkum 

That was an awful game.

Absolutely. He's one of the best players in the game right now.


A chance to knock those puddy cats outta the eight tomorrow and put a decent gap between the top three and the rest.  Let's go Demons!

Both are very good.

Here's a weird piece of trivia;

The last time both Melbourne and Carlton were both in the top eight at the end of a round was round 14, 2011.

The last time Melbourne, Carlton and Richmond were all in the top eight at the end of a round was round 7, 2001.

I think we missed an opportunity to really touch up the saints. 

?

Tomorrow is now desperately needed as a win (like not life threatening or season ended or anytfing), will really seperate us as top 3 over a massive competing pack of teams to make the 8.

  • 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.
