    Geelong winning the lions share of the contested ball but haven't been able to convert. Tiges have kicked straight and managed to keep the shackles on Cameron although Hawkins looks like he could cut loose.

    Geelong not out of this at all

    Tigers being burned by the umpiring. So many pushes in the back, missed throws, and holding the ball decisions earnt but not given.

    Picket is silky once he gets on the move.  Nice decision maker also

    BT is such an arrogant &^*$. It's a wonder Hodge didn't thump him one during the kicking in danger 'discussion'.

    Remember when umpire dissent was a rule? That was a fun 6 weeks.

    Another overlooked against Smith just then.  Ye olde AFL "different rules for different folk" trick

    I see nothing in Taranto or Hopper. They both look too slow.

    Beat me to it.

    Hopper over rated.

    Taranto poor kick.

    Wow

    Umpiring an horrendous joke again tonight... 🤦‍♂️

    Ffs, AFL get your priorities right

    Was at the Storm game last night, and this pales in comparison to the ref & bunker in charge yesterday

    Like the Tigers of old in that passage

    Jack riewoldt is cooked. Tiges doing well to be ahead considering they have no forward line.

    I know they have some outs, but when was the last time Geelong conceded 50 points in a Q

    I don't know, but not in this game. Do you mean 50 in a half? That would be Rd 7 vs Essendon, two weeks ago.

    Cats fwds aint much better with cameron having to play behind the ball to setup play.

    Richmonds disposal is just junktime and Geelong are only out there putting in  an appearance. With the outs that Geelong have it is an opportunity for Richmond but they seem to have really fallen by the wayside.

    Powell, first contest on the wing hits Jermaine Jones in the head trying to spoil then hits him in the head with his knee. Both incidental, no injury. I assume he’ll offer to sit out two weeks, it’s what he deserves.

    $1m, try at least $1.5m.

    My formula for calculations is based on the amount they are overpaid. For example @Redleg, they would have been better to recruit James Jordon for $400,000 a year and received the same output they are getting for 800K, with considerably more upside it must be said. You could argue for example, with Jack Reewold in his wheelchair, they should have done after Lobe to play second fiddle to Lynch. Cost half the price of Toronto and Hopper and structurally they would be much better off.

    • 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.
