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

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.

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.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
