Any week that Fritta’s Mum and Dad are on the TV is a good week to be a Demons fan.

@WalkingCivilWar tell Frittas mum she was brilliant in the post match. Loved seeing her and Maysy’s mum on the TV. They should all be very proud.

I will! She’ll love to hear that!
We were at the Pineapple pre-match having a drink or ten and Scott (Mr Frittata) recorded a lil vid of us. Needless to say I will NOT be sharing it on DL. 😁 I left the Pineapple at the very latest I could to get to the ground on time for setting up. Five minutes down the road she messages me to come back! It’s the closest I’ve come to blowing off Army duties. 😁

Tx Dl.

Answerth should have got 2. Anb was vomiting.  What a sucker punch.

Good to see that ch7 found the vision of Arnsworth's strike on Neal-Bullen.

Awful  behind play strike.

Just so frustrating that ch7 didn't play the vision for the world to see what was going on.

What makes this win extra impressive IMO is that Brisbane weren't as pathetic as the scoreline made them look.

This wasn't a game where we had the ball locked in our forward half. Inside 50s were even in the first half. Indeed, they had more than us in the second quarter (but kicked 1 goal to our 7). 

We were on top in CPs but not to the extent we have been in other games.

This was a reminder that our game, when we bring our best, stands up anywhere, against anyone.

You are spot on TU. It wasn't the sort of game that Goody would describe as "on our terms". Brisbane had plenty of clear entries inside 50. In some respects, we were more dominant against the Pies in the first 3 quarters than against the Lions. But there were 2 significant differences.

From the 1st minute, there was a notable shift in how we entered our forward 50. I haven't seen us lower our eyes all year. Amazing how much easier it was for Fritta and BBB when they were allowed to lead up to the ball carrier. 

And secondly, our backline slaughtered the Lions forwards in one on one contests.

For us to be at our best, the players need to be given some sort of license when we have the ball to hit up leading targets, and not be solely concerned about the ramifications of a turnover. We have the best backline to deal with that.

This sounds like Scott! He certainly enjoys himself at the footy...


Channel 7 were as disgusting as the lions last night. Completely fictional narrative to pump up the home town, non-victorian underdog despite that underdog team playing like a pack of indie, mudshow, jabroni thugs

Where is the vision? Do you have a link?

The mystery of what caused the Nibbla vomit is solved. It was a punch in the guts, but not from [censored] face Zorko. It was Noah Answerth that got him.

And Answerth gets a week from the tribunal.

But I got to see close ups of Neal Bullen vomiting and Barry’s tennis ball ankle 🙄

Brisbane should challenge Raynors.
Carlton has proven the head is sacrosanct ... Until the lawyers come in.

Was at the game and have just watched the first half again tonight.

The thing that summed it up for me was Jayden Hunt. With about 12 to go in the second quarter, he wins a contested possession on the half back flank, hands it off and then gut runs past three lions opponents to take a mark in clear space on the opposite forward flank.

Absolutely burnt them off. Incredible running by our team all night.

He screwed the kick up into the F50 but it was super impressive running, he just left them jogging after him.

Our F50 entries were so much better too.

Also, Zorko grabbing Ed in a choke hold and then pulling his hair was pretty low. He should have been cited as well for that.

How I'm feeling today.
 

 

I just can’t put in words how pleased I was when I saw that vision of our boys doing that after the game.  It just says so much!

No I don't.  But the only way Arnsworth  could have been charged is if the MRO obtained it from ch7.  And it must have been more than a tummy tap for it to be graded: intentional, medium impact, to the body and therefore get a one week suspension.  That it was behind play wouldn't help his cause.

Very poor that ch7 didn't show it at any stage or even refer to it.

  • 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?

    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.
