    In golf we just press pause and then recommence whereupon the Lightning ceases 

    There is a lightning tracker app, which shows lightning at Redcliffe which is very close by.

    Wonder if we get 2 pts if she's called off...??

    Absolutely no chance. We are 33 points up with 15 mins left. Why would we give that up???

     

    They better resume the game in our forward pocket and not in the centre

    If this game had started when it should have it would be over. 8:10 on a Monday night was B/S

    There’s no doubt the (w)AFL will find a way to give West coast 8 points of premiership points under a modified Nicholls-Margetts system whereupon the home time finding itself behind at the cessation of play shall have 100 points added to their score and an extra 4 premiership points awarded for the inconvenience

    Just wondering what the rules say

    Can't imagine it's favourable to us

    So now players cool down and go out again? Hello injuries....


    Solid way to give west coast a rest

    Surely there is the AFL equivalent of the duckworth Lewis rule from the cricket? 

    The game is over.

    Absolutely. Thank WA government and their [censored]. Could have played yesterday but no, 7 days to quarantine 🙄 coz 6 is not enough but 14 is too much. Flogs. 


    I know is most footy comps the rule is if the game is called off after half time the team in front is awarded the win

    Judging by the weather radar it will take at least 30mins for the storm clouds to pass

    • 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.
