Interested to see if Spargo gets some midfield time, since Viney is out, and I think he is the best like for like swap.

TMac already in full gear having set shots from different angles. 

And nailing them!

Who is JJ in for?

 

Still 40 mins to start time and this is already a big crowd. People streaming in steadily. The atmosphere is already awesome!

You haven’t seen it happen? Well then that must mean it never happens.

If it happened it would be picked up by cameras and blokes would be getting rubbed out. Simple really....

It doesn't happen because no one is going out there deliberately stomping on other players foot. 

To think that the club won't release information regarding Bayleys foot because it might instigate opposition players deliberately stepping on his foot is plain laughable. 

My last comment on this. It's game day mode for me now.

Is JVR, Woey and Laurie confirming to play or did they play the earlier game??

Laurie suited up in the change rooms. 

Woey looks like he’s the sub in the indigenous training tshirt. 

JVR sitting on the floor on the side of the rooms without shoes and socks on. Assume he’s not playing.

After mainly playing VFL practice match last week and now this, you’d assume JVR isn’t playing round 1. BBrown and TMac have held their place.

Might come on in the second half

I’m pretty sure this game is match conditions meaning no resting players with a replacement except the sub. 

Oh right

Please.. This isn't the 80's. Lots of AFL players play with sore ankles and not once have I seen an incident where a player has deliberately stomped on their foot simply to exploit them.

 

Totally agree, some people need to toughen up, it’s a tough physical game, that’s what we love about it

    It is extremely hot 

    I hope there is no cap on rotations today in this heat.

    • 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?

    • 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.
