I have a technical question. When I open the gallery in my Chrome browser, the tops and bottoms of the photos are "chopped off" so I basically see a lot of headless players. Any suggestions as to how fix this gratefully received. (Note: Any answers need to be understood by someone with the technical knowledge equivalent of someone under ten years old...or over 60).

Also, that's a nasty swollen joint on Joel Smith's left hand ring finger. I wonder whether that's permanent damage or just some temporary swelling? 

i presume you are talking about viewing on a phone?

    No, on a laptop. (HP Spectre using Windows 10)

    i just checked a gallery on mfc website. it centres/sizes properly (no chopping off) and I use chrome browser too.

    just a guess, it might have something to do with the resolution setting for your screen

    Thanks. That's probably it. But given everything else loads and works perfectly, I'm loathe to change any settings. I'll just have to continue to guess who is who.

    And use it to remind me of possibly the best newspaper headline ever:

    Headless Body in Topless Bar" writer dies. But why was that headless body there?

    My best guess would be the zoom setting in your browser. I can replicate the problem here by changing mine.

    You can try changing it by holding down the "ctrl" key on your keyboard and pressing the "+" (to increase zoom) and "-" (to decrease zoom) keys to change it. In this case you'd want to decrease the zoom by holding down "ctrl" and pressing the "-" key until you can see the full pictures.

    You'll be able to see the zoom level change in the top right corner as you do it, like this.

    Many thanks, deva. That's done the trick. I had no idea it would be that simple to fix.

    • 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.
