    As much as I dislike Collingwood they have played in some pretty entertaining grand finals over the past 15 years.

    Their losing ones have been entertaining 😀.

    Fagan would be frustrated with those 2 goals on the siren after each quarter. Can't let it happen again.

    With Murphy off surely that hurts there backline & the Brisbane forwards should dominate

    I think it’s time for the AFL to ditch all pregame and halftime entertainment.

    King Stingray would have been awesome.

    Or Amyl and the Sniffers

    Richo agrees with you. He was wearing an AatS T-shirt while interviewing KISS.

    Mark Seymour and the Holy Grail AGAIN.. I love Hunter and Collectors, but the AFL need to learn from the NRL.

    Brisbane’s defensive system (or lack of it), just can’t get their head around Collingwood’s corridor game run from transition. It’s like they’ve paid zero attention to the way Collingwood play. Then again, apart from Quaynor, Maynard and Moore, Collingwood’s defensive 6 are bog ordinary, and Bris get to score frequently from inside 50 entries. So what we have is a high-scoring GF. Anyone’s game from here I guess, but if the umps keep paying high tackle frees for Nick Daicos, that’ll get them there.

    Hate to say it but the ducking player is bloody good.

    Will this be the Hill or Cameron show?

    Hill by a fair way so far.

    Have to stop young Daicos or else.

    I don’t mind them either but that performance and Kiss pre game did nothing to enhance the match day experience in my opinion.

    Kozzi had an average year but has still kicked 10 more goals than hill

    Yep, Hill turns it on beautifully on his day but the thing about Pickett is even on his poorer days he still matters.

    Goalless games: Pickett 3, Hill 5

    Multiple goal games: Pickett 12,  Hill 7

    Pickett brings double the tackles inside 50 and goal assists, too.

    By recognising Hill as an excellent small forward, we can remind ourselves that Pickett continues to be an absolute top shelf small forward even in a season he was a bit off his best and our forward structure resembled a live pig through a bacon shaver.

    Hodge: “that’s a poor decision”

    umpires are having a mare

    Hodge seems to be the only one who’ll comment like this. The others go silent even though you know they agree with him.

    Jesus they have done it again. Maybe an after the siren goal by Brisbane to win it.

    Time to step up, Bailey.

    Re Daicos, we had to listen to all the experts explaining why Toby Green didn’t get that head high free all week, you know he bent at the knees etc.  Then in the first half we have watched Daicos picking up head high frees at will as he drops the knees and leans in to the tackle!

    Will yhe heat and a player down catch up with the pies. 

    I imagine big Joe will take a few marks inside 50 from here on. 

    Can't see a blow out though.

    But pies haven't been the strongest of finishers.

    Good point. Umps keep rewarding him 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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      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.
