    Probably don't want to play in Adelaide but would expect to beat either on this form.

    Dogs are always getting the rub of the green.

    Probably because it was touched.

    I was just thinking that. Neither of these teams look as though they could roll us.

    Ray Chamberlain just reminding everybody why he’s still the biggest [censored] of an umpire in a very high quality field.

    Was it?

    The goal umpire called it a goal and the video wasn’t exactly conclusive.

    999/1000 times they go with the goal umpires call in an inconclusive call.

    Port were stiff.

    Ooof - both teams look trash from a Premiership perspective. Now whether that’s because they actually are, or the pressure between the two teams…neither should hold fear for the Dees from watching this low standard skills match.

    Won't ping em for throwing, won't ping em for dropping it, won't ping em holding the ball, won't ping em for the protected zone infringements, won't make em stand on the mark.

    Go doggies! Wrap up that top 2 spot for us

    The ball clearly deviated in that last camera angle. I think right call.

    Port one goal in a half... very average.

    That kick for goal by Marshall just typifies Port. Choked.

    Just saw Richmond’s team for their game against the Hawks. 

    In: Ben Miller, David Astbury, Jack Ross, Jason Castagna, Kamdyn McIntosh, Mabior Chol, Marlion Pickett, Riley Collier-Dawkins, Will Martyn

    Out: Dion Prestia (Injured), Hugo Ralphsmith, (Omitted), Jake Aarts (Medi-Sub), Kane Lambert (Injured), Maurice Rioli (Omitted), Rhyan Mansell (Injured), Ryan Garthwaite (Omitted), Shane Edwards (Injured), Toby Nankervis (Injured), Trent Cotchin (Injured)

    That’s 10 outs. Are they tanking or what?

    Thought the same. That wasn't conclusive, you would think the goal umpire who was 1 metre away in a empty stadium would have heard a touch rather than relying on a dodgy picture on a awkward camera angle.

    Neither side playing anything like finals footy

    We'll never have a better chance of winning than elusive flag than this year.

    Port look better for mine. 
     

     

    And I have a carton on this. 
     

    Go Power!

    That was awful footy to watch.  Meggs has one eye on 2 v 3 in NRL Panthers v Rabbitohs and it’s a much more enjoyable spectacle.  They have some spectators and a little atmosphere.

    Dogs gameplan goes to water against defensively switched on sides 

    And Port...are good but not good enough?

    Honestly reckon Port are a chance here. Clean up their goal kicking with better forward entries and I think they can beat the doggies.

    Bulldogs .... Trealor, Dunkley, Libba, JJ (other than that goal) not doing much 

    Port ... Gray, Boak, Wines (by his standards), Dixon also quiet

    • 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?

    • 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.
