that’s ridiculous

Brunswick, it's a nice cafe but woweee!

I reckon they were offended by me asking for the sauce. I ordered a Parma with chips, came with not a drop of sauce.

My mate ordered a steak sandwich with chips, he got the sauce. 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

    We need a Darcy Jones type up forward.

    Imagine the forward half chaos and speed him and Kozzie Pickett would create.

    Hogan's been super  so far.

    Note the Giants rarely if ever take the mark.  98% outside five to help protect / reduce Sydney's penchant to always attempt the 45 kicks into the corridor. 

    As well as trying to protect againat the dinky short passes forward.

    GWS happy to give Sydney lateral short kicks or switch attemps...but ALWAYS protect the middle.  Go wide if you like.. we're happy with that!

    A lot of complaints about letting Harmes and Jordon go, but both have done absolutely nothing in the finals they've played.

    Don't care about a tagging role for Jordon, 5 touches and 1 tackle is [censored].

    The Giants winning the tactical field battle so far

    Jordon is currently tagging Whitfield and is doing an okay job.

    Harness had one touch for the whole 2nd half last night. He looks completely cooked and it showed.

    Wow what a complete [censored] up by the Swan defenders!

    Let's talk footy with this one..

    Briggs has had the better of him and his physicality has been a bit too much for Grundy.

    Grundy needs to lift this second half because he's been pretty poor so far.

    Grundy has always had questionable hardness. It’s why he’s never been as good as Gawn. Ever. 
    He’s a nice player but he isn’t strong enough and he doesn’t make up for it with his overhead marking. 
    Gawn is about the only ruckman in the AFL who is genuinely influential around the ground, Xerri is quite good too (I’m talking first ruck not your pinch hit ruckmen). Jackson has it in him, but hasn’t quite hit the mark yet. 

    Grundy is a lovely guy and a good player, but anyone who said he would help the Swans win a flag is kidding themselves. The Swans midfield is sensational. If they win the flag it’ll be them who make it happen, not Grundy.

    He's not alone.  Heeney's also a serial offender.

    The Giants also have there's in Toby G

    True. And i'm a big fan of Toby Greene

    but papley rubs it in. the way he celebrated and carried on after conned the ump for the first free and goal was very distasteful for me.

    • 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?

    • 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.
