I feel sick in my stomach after what happened to Angus and then no penalty. I can still here them chanting while Angus lay unconscious on the ground. May the Lions win by a large margin.

    Pies into Naicos for the Norm a certainty. Gil loves narratives.

    Really galling to have to watch 2 sides that we beat in the grand final.

    From a long way out I thought this was our year. 

    I was so confident we would be in the GF I booked a city hotel for this weekend.  To enjoy the festivities, see the city awash with red and blue and make up for missing the fanfare in 2021. 

    I'm still in disbelief that we aren't at the G today. 

    I truly believe we should be there and my confidence wasn't misplaced; there was no way to predict the impact of thuggery and our appalling goal kicking.

    As it is now not a Coll vs Carl game I will watch it cosseted as it were at the home of Dees supporting friends.

    Having to barrack for Daniher and Zorko is rather sickening but there is no other way.

    Go Roy boys!!!!

    The only way I see Brisbane losing is if they do a Melbourne and sheet the bed on the big stage at the "G".

    I should be on my fifth coffee, third Red Bull and tenth cigarette by now, having not slept a wink last night.

    This should be a GameDay thread.

    Dane Zorko- all will be forgiven and forgotten (for making Harry cry) if you do two things: take Maynard down, and get your team on the podium.

    I’LL GET YOUR FACE TATTOOED ON MY PERSON IF YOU CAN DO THIS!

    Arrggg!

    Really could have been us playing today. An in form Melksham was a huge loss. Not playing Grundy for whatever reason didn't help. Tmac was a poor compromise and I won't talk about the incident here.

    Pies are an average side that were very lucky to beat us and just scraped in against the Giants who played their third interstate final in a row. After a six day break. Hmmmm.

    Like so many others my interest is to see pies get smashed and a certain player get a taste of his own irresponsible and very dangerous footy acts so as to stop them happening to others again. Because the afl won't stop them, someone else should.

    We were not the best side this year. We finished 4th for a reason. KPF injuries the biggest factor no question about that. Bad luck but there you go.

    Could still have one either of those finals but if you can't kick the ball between the big sticks and score more than the opposition, then you are not the better team. We do not deserve to be in today's final because our goal kicking was putrid.

    Beautiful day. Off to the park with the kids and the dog for a while. Hosting a BBQ to watch the game. All set and ready to go.

    Lions will win. 2 relatively straight forward finals (reminds me of us in 21). Forwards humming. Pies have not been in particularly good form for a couple of months. McStay out a big loss for them.

    Lions by 35 points I reckon. I'll enjoy the looks of anguish on the pies supporters faces.

    I think Brisbane will [censored] the bed, Collingwood will win pretty convincingly and we will all look back on a badly missed opportunity.

    I’m actually worried that Andrew’s goes to Mihocek, and Cox has a field day on Gardner.  It would be my worst nightmare.  But Macrae is astute and will be working out how to exploit Brisbanes lack of a second fit tall defender.

    Never been more uninterested in a GF before.

    The thought of either Cox and Maynard or Daniher and Hipwood being premiership players just doesn’t sit well with me, sadly it’s only a matter of time. 

    This year we’ve been constantly reminded that Nick Daicos is the best player in the game and Harris Andrews is the games best defender. 
     

    A Brownlow medal count where 14 average touches gets you 3 votes and 42 touches and 2 goals gets you none.

    The umpiring / goal review system at an all time low.

    The tribunal system clearly broken. 

    Two of my best mates, both Collingwood supporters (one at the game today) telling me telling me this week that we (the Dees) were the better team in both our finals and should of win them both does little to comfort me.

    Throughout the year I have as many on here have invested so much time & money into watching our club, betting, SC and being on here only to be left so disappointed not only by our club but the game as a whole.

    Having said all of that, [censored] you Maynard, Carn the Lions.

    Any DL posters heading to the game today?

    Can’t wait for the game and hoping the karma bus pays Maynard a visit, one way or another. I don’t hope he gets hurt, I just hope he has a stinker of a game and is one of the main reasons they lose.

    Hopefully next year I’ll be cheering on the red and the blue rather than being a neutral in the crowd.

    The media's orgasmic response to the filth in a granny is strange. One would think it was 57 years since their last and not a paltry 13.

    Watch the filth fans boo Neale today. Like it was his fault.

    Dirty club. Dishonest players. Filthy fans.

    One can only hope they lose today.

    A small degree of joy in that at least.

    Watch the umps try and spoil it though.

    • 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?

      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.
