    Not on Kayo, so waiting on Ch7. Our game is 3rd Vs 5th so should be match of the round but just watch Woods Vs Blues get the nod. 7th vs 14th a Blockbuster in the making.

    The powers that be in the AFL/VFL aren’t demonstrating that they’re particularly interested in the proper promotion of community interests and football. The Pink Lady match is getting short shrift so don’t expect anything from them or 7 on the subject of the match of the round in this competition.

    Does anyone know if VFL games will be going ahead this weekend?

    The VFL is a complete sham of a farce.

    It’s not their fault but Southport is currently in second place with nine games for eight wins. That sounds like a fantastic record in any competition and the Sharks could not have done much more to get into that position. But ...

    They were drawn to play the lowly Northern Bullants this week in what I considered a danger game for them. Why? The Bullants have won a few games of late and are playing with great spirit and look at who Southport have played to date -

    Round 1 Carlton (14th) win by 1 point

    Round 2 Apsley (21st) win by 14 points 

    Round 3 UWS Giants (8th) lose by 30 points

    Round 4 North Melbourne (18th) win by 107 points

    Round 5 Apsley (21st) win by 109 points 

    Round 6 Gold Coast (15th) win by 83 points

    Round 7 Northern Bullants (17th) postponed 

    Round 8 Sydney Swans (19th) win by 15 points

    Round 9 Bye

    Round 10 Brisbane Lions (16th) win by 107 points

    Round 11 Gold Coast (15th) postponed 

    Round 12 Bye

    Round 13 Brisbane Lions (16th) win by 109 points

    Round 14 Northern Bullants (17th) postponed/bye

    To come Werribee (10th), Coburg (13th) Frankston (6th) and (for the third time this year) ... Brisbane Lions who they’ve beaten twice by more than 100 points.

    This needs no further comment.

    I think that it’s time for another change at the top, time for Gil to hand over to someone anyone that understands Aussie Rules football. vFL is borderline shambles, so many rule changes that the Magoos heads are spinning. We need some reality injected into the AFL ASAP.

    It is well past due time for the VFL competition to be better administered and conducted, with improved coverage, status and alignment to AFL clubs and supporters, such as pre-main game fixtures, venues and promotion, for example.

    Some of us supporters really miss the 'reserves' competition as it was formerly known; it represented a whole day at the footy in one venue, providing tremendous information flows to crowds of supporters on their team and that of opposition sides, and to their attendees.

    I was staggered when I looked at the VFL schedule at the start of the season - so many teams it reminded me of the old County Cricket system before they brought in the Divisions - which is precisely what the VFL (or - AFL2?) needs.  Teams need to be incentivized to do better, and be challenged to do so - not just play a collection of wooden spooners every week.  It isn't a  real competition that promotes the game, improves players or entertains the fans.

    Need to revert back to AFL Reserves comp, under full control of AFL. AFL clubs only permitted. No Southport, Apsley, Port Melb et al. Stuff em, time to make this ressies just like the old days and if you havent got a reserves side, get one quick or stiff luck!

    Have posted before there is minimal incentive to increase crowds at VFL matches.

    Crowds cost money... attendants, toilets cleaning etc

    The direction givien to the working party on the redesigned VFL was to save money and as part of that to better integrate the VFL schedule with the AFL schedule (playing the same  teams on a weekend etc).

    The real question is why did they include the old stand alone clubs and in particular the interstate stand alone clubs. Was it part of a government funding package perhaps. I have no idea and it makes no sense.

    If I was a conspiracy theorist you could say that they have set up a competition that must fail so they can close it down. The reality is that it is probably another stuff up.

    FWIW other than the number of byes the old VFL/AFL comp while not the best worked reasonably well in my view.

    • 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.
