Tom Stewart is gorn 

 

Stewart in trouble I think, looked bad.

 

Multiple weeks for Stewart 


Is apparent bravery a way to now get away with obvious front on contact?  Happened numerous times against Frittata on Thursday and Tarrant just then got away with one.

Definitely a shift in interpretation...and 'amazingly' the commentators are in synch with it 🤷‍♀️

Has to be four week. Prestia out this week and next week, elbow to the head. Was knocked out on the ground by an elbow after the ball went well by. Didn’t need to do anything. If the AFL is serious you have to rub him out for twice what he cost the guy playing the ball.

Stewart deserves four weeks for that! Horrific 

No way he plays against us in 2 weeks.  I dont dislike him but that was bad.  3-4 surely

That’s exactly what should happen but the sceptic in me says he’ll get one week - just enough time to freshen up before we play them the following week….

Agree. He’s a great, and usually fair, player - but that was everything we’ve been told the AFL wants to get out of the game.

Thought it was a shoulder. Will have a look again, but agree it is multiple weeks, as far worse than the Chandler tackle of a player with the ball, who got 2 as a result of concussion.

You’re right. Just saw it and it was a shoulder braced to hit him flush in the head. It’s really, really bad.

Replay was just on @Redleg.. i didn't see it...but blimey... some would call it an 'average act' as Garry just called it...others would call it something else.

Just saw it. He’ll get 3-4 reduced to 2 I think. No way gets just 1 week for that, it’s actually the perfect example of what the AFL don’t want to see when you elect to bump. 


The fox footy boys going after how poor it looked and there’s nothing Stewart can do but fall on his sword.

Trial by media done. Minimum 3 weeks.

Agreed, should have been a free against Lyons when he was injured the other night.

 

Stewart out vs. us would be HUGE!

And Stewart IN and us still belting them, would be even bigger.

Let's not kid ourselves here, he will be IN against us, it's precisely how the AFL works, pure agenda driven tripe.

He won't be coz he will get 1 week so he can play against us. And who do they play next week ?

Shhh! 🤫

My outrage about this has nothing to do with our draw. I’m outraged! We all should be outraged! It’s outrageous!

The agenda actually demands weeks, to show they are serious in wanting to avoid head knocks.

The agenda deems outcome > actions, Prestia jogged off the ground........................................

  • 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.

  • 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.
