Umpires were genuinely atrocious today. That advantage call late in the 4th was a defining moment. I’d be punching walls if I was a Brisbane supporter.

    Lions only themselves to blame. That 50 to Sidebottom turned the game, but they just looked sluggish when they should have dominated around stoppages.

    Hate to say it but the pies were the best team today and best team this year. They neatly kicked it away too.

    The umpires were woeful from the first bounce that went out of the centre circle. 
    Brisbane should’ve had a lot more opportunities (or Collingwood less) which could’ve been the difference.

    That absolutely no advantage / advantage pies call decided the game perhaps.

    Fitting end to the season.

    Well stolen filth.

    This. He wanted a good feel story to end his endless reign of terror. Don’t forget pick 3 to Norf for McKay on your way out you piece of dog****.

    They say stuff like the ‘four best’ but they are the same muppets from every week when mistakes and inconsistency are ever present. 
    Just hope they don’t start umpiring the girls

    Gotta change the advantage rule. If no advantage accrues bring it back for the free kick 

    I think if that next player chooses to take the next kick advantage is paid. He should have stopped.

    Can you believe Frampton is now a premiership player? The bloke did nothing.

    Hipwood failed to fire and whoever was on hill hope that lives with you over the pre season. 

    I was secretly hoping they'd snag another one & Brisbane win by 2 points. 

    So frustrating. Pies kick badly but win a premiership, we kick badly & lose 2 finals

    ADVANTAGE!?!

    [censored] ADVANTAGE!!

    A player with two blokes on him. PUT YOUR [censored] WHISTLE AWSAY YIU DUMB [censored]

    YOU JUST LOST YHE LIONS A FLAG

    No matter how far it had gone, they just needed to call it back. Keep blowing the whistle. But nah, it's the pies and it's the show case of our game supposedly.

    What a wonderful summation of where our beautiful game has gone.

    Gil your are the murderer.

    God, I don't know what I'd do if I was a lions supporter at the ground. I'd want to torch the joint.

    Maybe just maybe Collingwood’s game style does hold up in finals. 
     

    This finals series really did just suck.

    I posted at halftime that the game would likely be decided by umpiring. And so it came to pass. The state of AFL umpiring is killing the game. For all the brilliant play, and players, all the work, dedication and teamwork, umpiring is simply making the game unwatchable. Congrats to Collingwood, but we’ll forever know there’s a huge, ugly umpiring asterisk hanging over this flag.

    • 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.
