Carlton's last kick into the forward 50 gets stuffed up every time.

    So good to see 50's being paid for time wasting.  eg, falling over the ball and not giving it back


    I tell ya what, neither team is winning a flag this year. 
    Carlton are at least hanging in and giving themselves a sniff. Richmond look old.

    Free to Martin?! Seriously it is a tough watch at times.

    Over the shoulder 

    but soft


    There was nothing close to a free kick to Dusty. 

    As usual the commentary team don't even mention it.  the kick to dusty came from another free as well.   such BS

    With all the momentum with Carlton, the umps could well have decided this game

    pretty sure you're allowed to reach over your opponents shoulder to try to spoil.

    not having a go at you, I'm just annoyed.

    Full disclosure - i've got money on the blues.

    At least Nick didn’t look like a smashed crab when  he played. Jack is the biggest drama queen. Just calm down Jack, people are literally dying in Ukraine. You just got tackled.

    Really liked Bolton and the way he is able to get involved in the game from HB into the forward line and damage the scoreboard. I know he took a few seasons to develop but hope one of our small forwards can develop into a similar player.

    he'll have to console himself with being 3 times the player Jack is

    What is it with so many poor free kicks being awarded for minimal/normal physical contact? Are the umpires being directed to take the physical risk out of the game?

    • If you even touch a person with a free kick or mark = 50m. A couple last night, and more tonight
    • Williams manning up on Martin = freekick. What!?!?!
    • A  player trips over an opposition player who is almost stationary on the ground and is awarded a tripping free. 

    Did I miss the memo or can I no longer guess the rules?

    By the way, a good contest Tiges v Blues, but nothing more. No killer blow for any team so far.

    Agree. Defenders have a tough job

    3 goals to the left of screen and 14 to the right so far. That’s the only observation I have out of tonight.

    Well let's see where Carlton are at.

    If they come back and win against an experienced side then Voss has had an impact.

    Along with lots of new players with “Vissy ambassador” roles who have come to Carlton.

    How much are the Blues paying Martin? Ouch.

    • 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.
