Must have been a message from HQ for the commentators to talk up Ugle-Hagan tonight...

    It's a deliberate tactic.  By moving that far away, they are not subject to the "Stand" rule.

    Of course, it allows their opponent a clear 5 -  10 metre run forward.

    The Dogs coaching team must think it is worth it.  I'm not so convinced.

    I don’t see much difference between ceding 5-10 meters or having to stand on the mark.

    Seems like a neutral trade off.

    My big fear last year was that the dogs would get this free kick treatment in the gf. So glad we smoked them and umps weren't as one sided as tonight.

    So if you move back a meter or two then it Must be worth it

    I'm not sure what the cut-off point is where you are deemed to be no longer standing the mark.

    Credit to the Dogs for their defensive work, Swans’ forward structure is a hot mess at the moment.

    What a dreadful game of footy. The swans kicking id deplorable and dogs not much better. No real pressure as well.

    Don't understand all the Tim English hate. He has been good tonight in both attack and defence.

    No hate from me. He’s a good ordinary ruckman. WA is welcome to him so long as they leave Jackson the unicorn alone.

    Bulldogs 17 frees to 7

    Not unusual for the team smashing the contested possessions to win the [censored] count. Putting their head over it

    Dogs going to [censored] the bed here. Swans much fitter. Swans to win by 30+

    Seems to be completely different interpretations here depending on the jumper colour, bizarre inconsistency 

    Same with every Bulldogs game. Been happening for years. Won them a flag 6 years ago. It’s ridiculous.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • 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.
