Port changing into there prison bar jumpers to sing the song is pure genius. They better not get any fine for that. 

Cop that AFL, pies & Eddie

I wonder if that puts them in breach of their contract?  Part of the deal for coming into the AFL was that they would leave the ‘iconic’ black and white stripes of their SANFL days behind them.  Collingwood had the AFL rights to this, and Port signed off on it to gain entry.  The Pies have every right to enforce their contract, and this ‘show’ really is poor form on their part. What did it prove?  The Crows were manufactured so there is no traditional SA rivalry before the AFL entry of either team, so the prison bars are meaningless in this context.

Imagine if The Lions wanted to be called the gorillas when they played us because they were called that in 1939?  Some things make no sense.

    I note that pox Kane Cornes suggested that a later tackle on Lycett should have been violent in retribution ‘enforced’, but how stupid? You want to give a brain injury to a guy because he gave someone else a brain injury?

    Speaking of brain injuries, were they serious about Boxing match between Cornes and Brown?

    Interesting to see how Brisbane goes. They are going for five wins in a row after losing their first 3. Looks like they will be a serious contender to challenge us.

    My eyes are starting to bleed. Goalless and worst quarter of footy for the year.

    Hawks had 127 disposals that Q for 8 inside 50’s and zero goals. Has to be a record

    Unbelievable. They've done it again. 

    Why are the umps wearing light blue when the Eagles are playing in predominately blue. 

    FMD. 

    Ridiculous isn't it? It would literally take 15 minutes for someone to whack together a matrix of what colours the umpires should wear in each combination of teams to avoid clashes. 

    Or they could always just wear that green uniform they have, seeing as there aren't any clubs with a green uniform. 

    This seems like the easiest problem ever to solve.

    It’s staggering. 
     

    On another note if Clarkson coaches Hawthorn to another premiership he’s going to be a very long term coach because they are miles off contending again.

    Quietly cheering for the Blues (yuk), two games clear if they win, plus it might attract a few of them to attend next week.

    Got to be a couple of different factors at play. COVID concerns for older patrons, ticketing issues for some, no/less walk up general admin, less neutral supporters going  & perhaps people now prefer to watch on TV.

    Carlscum are playing well today. 
    They will be no pushover next week. 
    no esy games…

    They kick big scores but conversely give up big scores. Lot of the matches they win are shootouts. 

    If we’re strong in defence we should outscore them. 

    Having said that I’m still worried they’ll beat us.

    That was fun catching up with my family who are mostly Hawks supporters and watching the Hawks vs WC game on TV with them.

    We should win, but once again it won’t be an easy game.

    • 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?

      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.
