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

He was knocked out on the ground and lay down for 2 minutes, the umpire saw it and reported Stewart straight away, Prestia came off and was immediately subbed out for concussion - meaning he misses next week.

Theres absolutely no way that doesn’t cost him more than it costs Prestia - which is 2 games.

    Lobb can kick them outside 50 on a 45 degree angle against us but miss 10m directly in front. 
     

    Freo can keep him.

    That's what I said, it's typical he couldn't miss against us but missed that sitter today.

    Ok, so this is where it gets interesting.

    Geelong said they were loading last week. Let’s see how they are after half time.

    It seems that MFCSS has mutated and there is now a strain called MFCVM (Melbourne Football Club Victim Mentality) which manifests itself by sooking about the umpires being against us, the AFL working to bring us down, the media having a vendetta against us and the MRP handing down decisions which are not in our favour.

    There is no chance of Tom Stewart receiving any less than two weeks for that hit.

    I appreciate this forum is a place to vent for some people, and what really riles me, is that there is often vitriol towards umpires from certain posters.

    Personal attacks wouldn't be accepted against any other group. So why these individuals? It wouldn't be tolerated in my house against anyone, I'd send my 6yo to his room, and if I spoke like that, I'd send myself to the room and give myself a good long talking to about respect, compassion and common decency.

    So it's been bugging me that this forum perhaps doesn't sanction that sort of commentary (perhaps it does and I am not aware of it).

    We can do better Demonlanders. #notallDemonlanders

    Mate, if Admin were to ban all the six year olds on 'Land, the site would be liquidated. Who would @WCW post with?

    2 questions 

    1. If the umpire reported him immediately, why wasn't a free kick paid

    2. Why did they let the game continue when Prestia was obviously in a real bad way. I couldn't believe they let play just roll on right beside him (where is the care factor there?)

    We will beat them anyway. Cats the most over-rated team in the AFL - also the oldest….they won’t get within 5 goals of us.

    Laughing. But not sure if I should be. Should I be insulted? Please tell me how I should feel right now, QD. TIA

    Or some have mutated it into Must Defend The AFL Whenever syndrome. Most of the comments are about the corruption of AFL operations regardless of our club.  And if you don’t think the AFL has history in this I’m staggered.

    • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

    • GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      The Gold Coast Suns find themselves outside of the top eight for the first time since Round 1 with pressure is mounting on the entire organisation. Their coach Damien Hardwick expressed his frustration at his team’s condition last week by making a middle-finger gesture on television that earned him a fine for his troubles. He showed his desperation by claiming that Fox should pick up the tab.  There’s little doubt the Suns have shown improvement in 2025, and their position on the ladder is influenced to some extent by having played fewer games than their rivals for a playoff role at the end of the season, courtesy of the disruption caused by Cyclone Alfred in March.  However, they are following the same trajectory that hindered the club in past years whenever they appeared to be nearing their potential. As a consequence, that Hardwick gesture should be considered as more than a mere behavioral lapse. It’s a distress signal that does not bode well for the Queenslanders. While the Suns are eager to remain in contention with the top eight, Melbourne faces its own crisis, which is similarly deep-seated but in a much different way. After recovering from a disappointing start to the season and nearing a return to respectability among its peer clubs, the Demons have experienced a decline in status, driven by the fact that while their form has been reasonable (see their performance against the ladder leader in the Kings Birthday match), their conversion in front of goal is poor enough to rank last in the competition. Furthermore, their opponents find them exceptionally easy to score against. As a result, they have effectively eliminated themselves from the finals race and are again positioned to finish in the bottom half of the ladder.
