Same desperate need for a hairbrush.

    Interesting game. We shall see if the bears can play 4 quarters. I hate girlong but not writing them off yet though.

    Geelong need to settle down and not get sucked into the fight. they are getting enough field position to be much closer than they are

    I've been in favour of keeping as much distance between ourselves and the interstate sides in order to avoid an interstate final but tonight I wouldn't mind seeing Brisbane win just for the hell of it. It might seem unlikely but who's to say another mini covid outbreak in the metropolitan area won't see a final where Geelong are the higher placed team being moved down the highway to get a near capacity crowd.

    Have to hand it to Neale. I’ve never been a big fan but his shoulder is farrked and he hasn’t complained, still copped the main tag and has made a big difference. Real courage and toughness

    Unbelievable home team favouritism by umps AGAIN. 

    I hate the cats but the lions are getting the absolute run from the maggots.  
     

    Cats get it at their home. Eagles are definitely another team that gets the extra benefit at home from the umps.

    Our run home : 

    Bombers MCG

    Giants MCG

    PORT AO

    Hawks MCG

    Suns MS

    Dogs MCG

    Eagles OS 

    Crows MCG

    Cats GMHBA

    4 tough games against top 8 sides still to come, I forgot we played the dogs again.

    In short I would love a guaranteed top 2 spot locked away before rd 23.

    At least BT generates excitement, even if he is a [censored]. What’s with Brayshaw’s awkward minutes of silence

    Yep, it would essentially be like having to play an extra final at the cattery in round 23.

    A nice Covid outbreak in Geelong only prior to round 23 would be handy ?

    Good practice leading up to the finals all being well.
    May have to play the Cats in week one of the finals but at least if we did it’d be at the MCG ?

    Be careful what you wish for. The Labor government would s4ite the bed and lock us down for a month and cancel all finals in Melbourne.

    24 free kicks each. Did you miss the 9 straight frees to the cats in the second Q to try to get them back into it?

    lions overall probably getting a better go with the umps but hardly unbelievable favouristism. The Lions have smashed the Cats, gone harder

    If you were just looking at the stats for this game you could be excused for thinking the scores would be flipped. Geelong are leading in nearly all the key stats

    Yes!  I was trying to think who he reminded me of. You are spot 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.

      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.
