    Oh [censored] me this game is soft

    That tackle was in no way dangerous.  Tackled him at the hips / arms and was brought to ground.  What else was he supposed to do there?

    May as well call time on any tackle if Buttler goes for that

    I could show you my etchings during the lunch break.

    Risky business Uncle.

    Uncle would never qualify for banner making for a raft of reasons but mainly because we have a dress code: no skirts or dresses, and a kaftan is considered a dress, right? Also, no shoes. If he was to take his crocs off, in all likelihood he wouldn’t be able to get them back on again because portly.

    What the hec was that 50 or did i miss an incursion within the protected zone by player not on the mark? ... 

    Ump runs in and says "back here!" in a raised voice but not that loud.

    Usually they would say "back 1 metre" etc.

    But nup.

    Then as Swan player turns his head the first time he said "back here" wondering if he was talking to him the ump pins him for 50 in an instant.

    Hmm. Maybe make AFL non-tackling? Gaelic football maybe? (And no bumping obv) Seriously though, what’s the future for the physical nature of AFL? Days might be numbered.

    Another dangerous tackle that was far from it.... my gosh.

    Need to nuke the entire umpiring fraternity / program and whoever's in charge of it and start again.

    Their interpretation and over officiating has destroyed our great game

    This season in particular is like a drunk's vomit that's been left to bubble & squeak overnight before a stray dog comes along the next morning and gets lucky!

    • 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.
