The Pies have to be the luckiest team in the comp in the last decade

Yep, in fact statistically the luckiest in AFL-VFL history during a H & A season, no?.

    The good news is that Collingwood will give the Cats a much tougher game than Freo would

    Geez gotta give credit to the Pies. Many thought they were cooked now and would have spent all their tickets.

    Pretty amazing run.

    Eventually but right now I give zero credit and zero $%&*s

    I detest Collingwood. I maintain my view they are the worst 16-6 and top 4 side the competition has ever seen, and possibly will ever see.

    They continue to win games when they are largely inept in key metrics. Contested ball, clearances, time in forward half, they are no good, but they get runs on late and their opponents [censored] the bed.

    So not only do they get to make top 4, but the Dogs, who have been limp all season, make finals.

    It's humorous seeing Carlton miss. It really is. But it's equally disgusting seeing Collingwood finish top 4. Sydney won't lose to St Kilda so it means one of Geelong and Collingwood is through to a prelim.

    My memory doesn’t go that far back, but I’d  believe you.

    I don't want to play the pies in a final. They remind of Leicester City in 2016. They just keep winning despite the odds

    Major umpiring blunder to McKay there with 2-3 mins to go. Was tackled without ball and pushed in the back. I’d be filthy. 

    There were a number of horrible decisions against Carlton in that quarter.

    The early mark to Cripps which was overturned on a block, when the block was caused by Quaynor pushing Silvagni.

    The missed push on Mackay.

    Still, Carlton had more than enough opportunity to win it without those frees. I mean, they only needed a draw, they had the ball at half forward with 90 seconds to go. What do they do? Kick to the pocket to a spare Collingwood player! Insane.

    Yeah but we don't want them beating geelong and getting into a prelim

    If we win our QF, fair chance we get them in our prelim. They lose to Geelong, they go through to a semi against Fremantle or the Dogs which, at the G, they won't lose.

    Woods get another close one.

    Wow, Carlton,  would have thought they learnt how to ice the game.

    They panicked.

    Free to Mckay and I thought Ginniven blocked Saad from the last marking contest.

    I reckon the pies will beat Geelong. They are battle hardened and full of belief. The cats have been playing practice matches

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      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.
