The Demons blew a perfect opportunity to consolidate a Top 2 spot and keep the dream of a home final in week one of the finals alive by going down to the Blues by 4 points at the MCG.

Said it last week. Losing Petty will cost us a flag. We are not going to kick the scores we need against quality opposition without a decent power forward.

We had our chances for a mark in that last minute, but ultimately it took a BS call to beat us.

 ROBBED.

Looking forward to burying those mugs in the finals.

Hell of a game.

Carlton can win the flag.

Score review sucks.

We looked 100 times better once Jordon was off, Hibberd went back and Smith forward similar to what the smart ones here (me) proposed all week because the overall balance was so much better.

Grundy isn’t a forward but he’s an excellent ruck and stemmed the centre clearance bleeding in the last quarter which ultimately lost us the game.

Love you as ever Dees but you let that one slip.    Can't lose another one.  Lets just go for 5 straight.

Really looking forward to see If Tommy McDonald can get into some form - need an experienced tall body up forward.

Same goes for Frittata.

Calm down. We didn’t play well and almost stole it. Long way to go.

I sat behind the goals. IT WAS NOT TOUCHED 

 

AFL loves to see this pack of wild animals make finals. Good for rating. Disgraceful.

I have major issues with Salem running into an open goal, unpressured, and not making the distance from about 42 metres. I just don't get it. Furious with that.

Great game of footy, but we were beaten at our own game and looked slow around the contest, especially at stoppages.

Insufficient evidence.   But we didn't lose it in the last minute.  We lost it the first 2 minutes of the last qtr. Gutsy loss

Pretty poor last few minutes, we’re supposed to have plans for situations like that except the plan seemed to be bomb it to a pack of 20 players, have a couple of hail mary shots from 50 (ok Salem’s wasn’t that far and he should’ve kicked it, Trac was robbed but it wasn’t the right option imo) and repeat bombing it. Gotta be better than that. 

Blues were good though, pressure was massive. Clarry not quite up to speed yet

1. Bad umpiring ruins our great game. 
2. Carlton are the best team in the AFL as of this moment. 
Just a shame it was blighted by the umpiring. It’s the AFL’s greatest shame and embarrassment.

No idea what you were looking at Dazzle. One angle showed the ball miss his hand by a fair way.

Come on Dee supporters dont give them baggers any reason to gloat. JUst nod and say see you in September. There will be lots of nashing of teeth over the last touched call. But games are won over 100 minutes not just one. Both teams were good tonight, it was a great  warm up for the finals. 

Move on to the Hawks next week

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
