    Maybe the AFL can just give us the 4 points after initially taking it away from us last week.

    I don’t care if we play to an empty stadium. I hope the quarantine disrupts their preparations. Bring it on.

    Default to us as compensation for the fiasco in Adelaide.  Seems about right thanks Gil!

    Hopefully they all test negative.

    A positive test result would definitely force us into a compacted fixture later in the year.

    Also, because if they all test negative they're not battling a potentially life-threatening disease.

    Highly unlikely anyone would be positive, but it does interrupt there preparation which can only be an advantage for us.

    Clearly this is GOD punishing the AFL for not committing sufficient resources towards quality umpiring.

    • Demonland changed the title to BULLDOGS IN ISOLATION

    They have to do more than just testing there today. Has to be every day for a week at least.

    Embarrassing scenario of maybe the two bottom teams playing off in the GF

    • Haha 1

    AFL Rule apparently no spitting, talking or breathing during game by Bulldog

    It didn't make any difference to the Swans when they had to isolate nor the Kangaroos.

    We'll most likely be in Lockdown by the weekend at this stage. Games might not even go ahead in Victoria.

    There won't be a lockdown. Games will go ahead. There will be crowds.

    9 cases now. Surely there are no crowds at this point.

    If ever there was a (non health related) reason people need to get vaccinated this is it. Population gets vaccinated, it no longer becomes an issue how many cases get reported. Life goes on.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      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.
