Carlton players seem to be allowed to dispute just about every time they get a free against them - I remember that got 7 goals from 50s against us last preseason (which was excessively overzealous I admit) but they get away with murder.

    Love the vision of all the Carlton mongs in the crowd frothing at the mouth.

    I’ve still got Carlton at 9th this year, but in a reverse of last year they might have to win the last few to clinch it.

    They got pummelled by 90 points. I thought he was one of the only players who looked able to control the ball. 

    C’mon man. He was atrocious defensively. I laughed at some of the non efforts/laziness he was playing with. If the Roos didn’t have to activate their sub, I reckon he would’ve been the one that would’ve been subbed.

    Gee they sure are getting into Voss on Twitter.

    Voss has to get the sack you can’t tell me Carlton have improved in 2 years, they suck

    Can anyone confirm the person who threw themselves off the balcony at Marvel Stadium wasn’t Michael Voss? #AFLBluesLions

    Michael Voss makes Nathan Buckley look like a combination of Norm Smith and Jock McHale #AFLBluesLions

    Call me stupid but Voss must be in a little trouble. They are no where near a top team and couldn’t want for a player on the list. Forget their win/loss at the minute they are nowhere #AFLBluesLions

    Harry Sharp for Brisbane kicks his first goal in league footy. 2 blokes come up to him for half hearted congratulations.

    JVR kicks his his first goal and 58 of his teammates come from all directions to celebrate and embrace the moment.

    What's Mitch Robinson holding up? A participation medal?

    I've got the volume off. What on earth is Mitch Robinson doing in the crowd with a Guernsey on?

    He can't quite retire yet?

    He's like Les McQueen from Creme Brulee

    It’s hard not to get seduced by the way Brisbane play their footy when their up and about and they have a very talented midfield and forward line.

    But, can anyone see them knocking off a Geelong or Collingwood at the MCG in a qual, prelim or GF?

    The entire team was atrocious defensively. It was just that the other 17 players also couldn’t find the footy. He’s far from a perfect footballer, but to single him out in the context of that performance seems wild to me.

    Perhaps Curnow and McKay will now realise that not every defence is as bad as WCE.   McKay in particular just looks like a spectator when he ant grab a mark.

    Think it was his 2015 Merrett-Murray medal  - club champion in a 4 way tie.

    Based on the broadcast and hearing from Luke Hodge (old team mate) - Mitch has played 100 games and been sacked by both teams so he gives the medal to the losing team when they play off.

    Does BT even realise Andrew Dunkley (father of Josh) was himself a very good reliable Swans defender with a lazy 217 games.  

    Thanks JB @jamesbrayshaw for the pickup as well

    Yep, they took off to order their Tassie jumpers.

    Carlton have not improved one iota since the departures of Teague and Bolts.

    Numerous top 10 picks, players traded in Cerra, Saad, Newman, Mcgovern, Pittonet etc.

    Same old 5hit on repeat from this club.

    Blues got a toxic supporter base went tonight and I’d hate to be a player for them, the crowd is so fast to turn on their own. Makes our meltdowns mid game look like a picnic

    They were definitely doing a lot of sooking. Some nongs behind were continually calling for 50 whenever a Lions player was following their opponent into the ‘encroachment area’ which they are allowed to do

    Carltons kicking was dreadful all night. In fact it was really bad. Their top line players like Walsh and Cripps are close to the worst offenders. If Brissy had kicked straight the it would have been close to 10 goals.

    Yep both of them are front runners like most in the baggers team. McKay in my view is a bit soft.

    • 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.
