I mean he still had 5 disposal in the last quarter. So he's had a decent crack at least

But yes, surely he either didn't tell coaching staff or If he did then I seriously would hope they didn't advise him to at least try and push through.

Surely not the latter🤯

    Slightly different line here, shouldn’t we be trying to conserve our core midfielders, they’ve put in a ton of work over the past 5 years. They look cooked

    Just saw tv vision of him grabbing his hammy. Not what I call a good look. What is also interesting is that I don’t recall any mention made by commentators at the time. Guessing it was a very tense / exciting moment in play at the time.

    Too busy barracking for Port

    He's so used to oppo players grabbing him off the ball, he thought he'd grab himself just to feel like he was involved.

    We don't bat that deep in our midfield stocks unfortunately.

    Dunstan injured, Harmes nqr, Sparrow limited, Laurie unproven.

    With Bowey possibly out with a cald, we probably need Brayshaw down back.

    I think Harmes and Sparrow come in and hope they provide more defensive midfield pressure. Petracca is going to have to spend most of the game in the midfield along with Viney.

    I like Laurie's skill set so maybe he gets an opportunity?

    Well it certainly will assist Freo's young midfield. They are as good as Port's young ones so someone will need to step up BIG TIME.

    Laurie is not up to it at the moment unfortunately

    We need to understand.....it's IMPOSSSIBLE to replace Oliver.....all we really do is add a name to the team sheet. Clarry is as good as  2 others.   If this transpires... ...  we're not looking too flash....if that we were..

    When was he last out of the side? 

    Late last season when Selwood kicked his hand and broke bones. Not even a free kick paid for kicking in danger!

    He returned wearing a brace after a week and was limited through the end of the season.

    • 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.
