The Demon Man is the only thing keeping me engaged in tennis this year, everyone else seems more intent on off court dramas that it’s turned the AO into the Grand Slam version of Married at First Sight - everyone more interested in creating drama for [censored] and giggles that we’ve all forgotten what the whole point of the event is. 

It's like watching a continuous week of Tom Morris and fox footy. Dramadramadrama.

    Is it just me?

    Am I unpatriotic?

    I don't know what anyone's talking about.

    Typical crude comment 

    asking the GOAT to leave 

    Tony Jones should be stood down. 

    If Tony Jones made a joke about me and I'd won what Joker had won I wouldn't even waste my time laughing it off. I mean Tony Jones?? The guy couldn't be more of a washed up light weight if he tried. Isn't he on the 9 footy show so the other clowns can take the [censored] out of him? It just goes to show how precious the Joker is.

    The only thing worse than Tennis is the entitled brats that play the game these days

    Throwing tantrums if they get a call against them. Probably a reason they didn't play team sports

    (Of course there are exceptions)

    Just watching the women's final.

    I'm really appreciating the commentary.

    Just having two ex players giving great explanations of the player's tactics and techniques without hyperbole and shouting.

    I just can't understand why the AFL broadcasters can't do the same.

    We really miss out on game plans and in depth tactics of teams and players with the coverage we get.

    And a tremendous final with Madison Keys finally winning a grand slam singles tournament.  That's after winning a thrilling SF against Iga Swiatek

    What stands out most is how hard they hit the ball and constantly trying to hit winners ... great tennis

    As for the Sinner/ Zverev final tomorrow, if Sinner is at his best, he'll win.  Doesn't have an obvious weakness and is methodically great with a dominant serve

    And his cross-court forehand is just power-laden

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • 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.
