Has the AFL made any comment about the state of the ground?

It will be “AFL grounds have never been better.”

    Disgraceful tunnelling tackle not paid that quarter 

    Umpire was right there😡

    Umpire 26 looked straight at it side on from nearby and just waived play on.

    Hipwood should be suspended for that as Blakey could have broken his neck, let alone the potential to be concussed.

    I’m are they cone out and say it was an incorrect decision after the game.  But it was so obvious to everyone watching,

    Just a blatant lack of understanding of the situation. Bump, yes, but not when you should be contesting the ball.  
    Should be the same as contesting a ground ball - a duty of care for the player in a vulnerable position.
    Could also apply to Gulden’s tunnel on Berry, but at least he pretended to go for the ball.

    And it was a mark as well

    Not even remotely true. 

    If we lose we’ll be 2 points out of the 8, and still within one game of 5th (possibly 4th too, if Brisbane lose).

    Our draw gets easier from here, not harder, with the last three (Port, GC, Coll) easier than the next three (Fremantle, GWS, Dogs).

    Beg to differ

    3-3 won't cut it

    Dogs have a superior percentage and three teams now in the eight have the benefit of a drawn game

    Ridiculous 50 to the blues to decide the game

    Umpiring late in games that significantly impact results will be the reason people stop going to the footy.

     

    Unless they support Carlton. Whole season is a joke. As corrupt a competition in all sport. Well sports entertainment.

    This season is so out of whack. Teams are getting pumped 1 week then playing like contenders the next.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • 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.
