if it had been paid oob deliberately (just saying)

who was the closest freo player?   doggo?   lol

would have been at the 49m mark so kicked probably no closer than 55m. a very difficult kick hard up on the boundary and having to kick directly over the mark.  i know jamie elliot did it but that was a freak kick. Even a point would have been difficult.

given freo's kicking accuracy for the game, i'm tipping it would have been oob on the full

    Just a tad ridiculous, even for you Jaded

    And how do you know he hasn't messaged Max to show concern for his knee? More than likely he has, I'd say

    Not even close to ridiculous. He absolutely did our Club a huge disservice. And did so knowingly. There’s no love lost when a player puts himself before anyone else, let alone the entire Club. And there’s no room for a player who decides to come to us KNOWING for sure he wouldn’t be seeing his time out with us. I have it on extremely good authority that this was on his mind for waaaay longer than we knew.

    And you think Jaded is a little too harsh maybe? At least she’s not wishing a season- or even a career-ending injury on him like many in the cheer squad are. 😁 Be it right or wrong to feel that way, what he’s done to our Club, who btw gave him the world, is unacceptable and deserves to be treated as such.

    Oh how I’d love for that scenario to have transpired! Dog(ga) the saviour lining up to pinch the win for his beloved new club, only to miss the lot *contented sigh*

    Wouldn’t mind Sydney having a bruise free 100 point win and feeling comfortable about themselves into next week.

    Clearly facing a team on the rebound worked against us on Friday.

    Hawks giving a reasonable account of themselves here. They just can't convert.

    Still want them to get pasted mind.

    Swans love the 1 / 2 overlap using their FB straight up the guts.  Have to make sure we cover that this week.

    That's their preferred go to pretty much everytime from the kick ins.  Their next option is to try and link up run out wide around the boundary.

    Hope the umps don't go as easy on them as they are so far today.

    Allowed to drop the ball like a hot potatoe when tackled..  no frees called so far on about three of those.  Same as the Lions in the first quarter on Friday.

    I'm still nervous when the ball is in his hands and I hate the hawks.

    i'm not watching the dorks game, but looking at the stats they seem to be matching swans pretty well except for scoring, but being smashed

    Hawks have got both hands firmly on that wooden spoon. And it’s round 2.

    Didn’t think you could make the hawthorn jumper look uglier but I was wrong. 

    You could let Chris Fagan don it.

    Yep they're gonna go close.  No forward line & pretty much no weapons anywhere

    This is just the sort of game Sydney drops.

    Hawthorn beat them easily at the SCG last time .

    Okey-dokey

    If Hawthorn only want to recruit players that will be part of their next premiership then they should be scouting prenatal clinics.

    Hawks need a seasoned and experienced  coach like Clarkson to take over and arrest the malaise.

    • 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.
