The only bit of good news is that Max is walking without splint, brace, crutches or even a limp.

I don’t think you can read that much into it. It actually may mean the opposite.

Brisbane - blackouts and people singing John Denver and Neil Diamond.

Do they know it’s not 1976?

It is over there!! 

 

In all seriousness this will be remembered as the worst day to be a Demons fan since we didn’t make the 8 in 2020.

Salem injured and out indefinitely. May late scratching still not right. Max gets injured and god knows. Lights go out on a game.

Be kind to yourselves Dees fans.

    Any idea if we marked the ball from Brayshaw’s kick just as the lights went out? Looked a potential rare inside 50 entry.

    Shanked it straight to a Brisbane player.

    Serious question - is that a good sign in terms of medial v ACL?

    And also a big smile . I’d take a 100 point loss if his injury isn’t serious

    Yes you can it's twisting or sideway movement that becomes a problem. But the fact that they are letting him is confusing.

    Impossible to tell.  I've seen and played with blokes who've run off the ground seemingly unencumbered only to find they've blown their ACL.

    And potentially Petty injured as well 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️


    Kayo - Brown Lyon Buckley - discussing how abandoning at this stage with BL winning +40 points.

    They are suggesting that it could adversely effect the  integrity of the betting" - farcical.

    Apparently can be continued after what could be 60 minutes!  How about the soft tissue injuries in either teams after cooling down for all this time.  Not a lot of integrity now.

    If the game is abandoned then we lose. 
    Those rules were put in place after the last time the lights went out at VFL Park.

    7 goals in twelve minutes. 
     

    let’s do this! 🔴🔵🔥🔴🔵🙄💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪

    Those lights ain't coming back on.

     

    Agreed. Things exploding are never a good sign.


    What a disgrace our midfield was. Doesn't bode well for the Swans game missing Kossie and Gawn. Come on Schac attack!

    I suspected that was the case given Brayshaw’s propensity to shank a kick.

    We don’t deserve to win but that rule that who’s ever in front gets the points is [censored].

    What if it was a scenario in which Brisbane was up by 3 points & the reason they get the win is because their stadium is a piece of garbage ?

    Was just thinking this is be dirty as hell if it was close and we lost a goal down with 8 minutes to go

     

    At least they didn’t get 100 points against us

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
