It seems the umps will pay holding the ball for a tackle over the line as well, which they've never done previously.

 

Huge LOLs if we end up snatching this.

It’ll be up there with the time we came from 44 down and beat Geelong in Geelong to win the minor premiership 

 

Lever been an absolute general tonight. Great leader.

Not sure we're doing Weid any favours by playing a half in the reserves and not give him a decent half in this game.


Tomlinson looks at least 2 steps slower than he should be. I wouldn't be playing him in round 1 unless the only alternative is…shudders…Smith.

Yeah that one was up there but nothing could beat coming back from 40 points down in a pre season game against Carlton at Marvel on a Thursday night in front of 15 people.

Nice to have 1 first stringer in to lead the way.

He’s not being impartial he’s been overly negative. It’s unprofessional. 

Lyon tipped against us 90% of the time up until mid last year instead of being patriotic. His success in the footy tipping was more important to him instead of showing loyalty to the boys. He only decided to jump on the bandwagon as a passionate Demon late last year.


This is embarrassing by the umpires. AFL needs to rectify that before the sesson. 

50m penalty for shaking your head while looking at the ground

 

If this is how the game will be umpired this year it will be unwatchable, they expect players to be robots 

I don't care about the result. I'm just glad we know how strictly this "umpire criticism" rule is going to be interpreted. It looks to me like it's a "don't show visible disappointment at anything" rule, which is…a bit too far.


It is now a 50 Meter  penalty for shaking your head.

 

This umpire over correction is rubbish. 
Put them on a pedestal and they’ll milk it for all it’s worth.

    After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.

    It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.
