I'm betting tonight will be a free kick bulldogs night.

You might be right again!

    Why is pushing in the back in the ruck allowed but other parts of the ground aren’t? 
     

    Zorko’s free is standard ruck work from throw ins. Happens every game. 

    Full forwards are pushing hard both hands in the back now. Crazy how it's a rule sometimes …

    This game has to be the worst standard of skills I have seen this year. What a joke. Take Brissy out of Brissy and you got teletubbies.

    Play man on man and this is the result. 

    They arent that good unless you give them the space and time to execute

    Lions are a much different team at home than they are away.

    Though, we allowed them to play however they pleased for 3 quarters.

    Dogs forward line looks really thin. If Naughton has a shocker, or misses set shots, I can't see them scoring 60 points.

    Lions forward line looks good, but Daniher is totally unreliable, and Hipwood often looks good but does nothing.

    Midfield battle should be where the game is won or lost, and Lions midfield will kick more goals than Dogs.

    Lions by 25 points.

    Dogs by 25 .... Brissy are flat trackers and nowhere near as good as we made them look last week.

    That was ball 

    Umpiring has been poor both ways.  And apart from a few good snaps for goals, the player skills have been pretty poor too.

    Nice shot mate! Get Moby Dick off the field before he burps up a licence plate.

    • 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?

      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.
