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

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • 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.
