    An absolute throw by Cripps when tackled, in Richmond forward line – no free. Some players are untouchable.

    Too late. I’m a lost cause. At this point even an exorcism wouldn’t do it.

    If we had a Harry McKay we’d be sitting at 12-1.

    And we would be a very complete side. But in that bizzaro world, Weid would have won the Coleman 3 years running.

    Tigers 8 points behind us with zero injuries

    Imagine how much Carlton would have lost by if the maggots bothered to pick up the throws

    So how long do the boys get off this week? Hopefully they use it to have a good rest & stay out of any trouble.

    I noticed de goey went to Bali. Interesting decision.

    Both of tonight’s sides look like they’d have us covered at the moment.

    People keep saying we haven’t beaten anyone. In fact, we took Richmond apart in everything except the size of the winning margin - because we kicked so inaccurately. We were miles better than them.

    Maybe but atm we are not playing the same brand of football

    I watched this game with a lot of interest and there were three very stark differences to the way we play atm

    1. A willingness to run and carry moving the ball forward as quickly as possible

    2. Effective tall forwards that if they don’t mark bring the ball to ground so their small forwards can go to work 

    3. Consistent pressure acts when not in possession meaning opposition has less time to dispose effectively 

    I don’t think the way we’ve played over the last month or so we’d beat either of those sides last night which is obviously a big concern because they are both lapping at our heals 

    Lets hope we regain some form and fast 

    It would be great if BB and Weid watched how physical the tall forwards were in this game - I don’t think they have it in them to replicate that but it would be nice if they could

    As I've posted several times before, I don't understand why the commentators don't call this out. More relevant than most of their air filling.

    AFL directive not to criticise umpires?

    If it looks like a throw acts like a throw, then it is a throw.

    Except when it's Carlton doing it.

    Or Bulldogs, Cats, Eagles to mention a few other perennial offenders.

    Yes we are only 2 games ahead of teams like Richmond and Collingwood. This is what happens when you lose 3 on the bounce, very much not ideal no matter what the excuse. 

  • Quote

    If Cats, Saints and Sydney win their games vs Eagles, Ess and Port by even a couple of goals, Carlton will go from 4th to 7th by tomorrow night.

    When you watch a game like last night's, it's confusing because you think that your team is be adjudicated by a different set of rules.Take for example pushing into fence. MFC game, free straight away. Arguing with umpire free straight away. Going off the mark before play on, err forgot to blow whistle free and 50 straight away.  Yet we all saw those being flaunted.

    No one puts any attention into Jayden Short. Nearly 1000 metres gained tonight.

    Happens all the time for some reason.

    Winners at last please tell me you thought Crisp's handball to Cox for his goal on Monday was a throw. I just want to find one person that agrees with me on this 😝

    • 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.
