I can only ever cheer Carlton on if they're playing Collingwood. Barely. 

Yep. They have that certain untoward feeling about them. Hard to describe but you just know you have to hope they lose up until the one you mentioned. In my lifetime there's been no real rivalry with us except a small window of close wins courtesy of Kozzie and some Carlton sod. But the disdain is certainly strong. With Cwood there is a long history of hatred and harm.

1994 and 2000 finals comes to mind

Hawks are playing very well. 
young and confident 


I'm not barracking for a blues win. It's more a case I really do not want to see the hawks go 3-0. Their supporters arrogance is next level. I don't want to see them up and about.

 

Gunna watch the soccer.   Hope both of these sides lose

Commentary on fox is atrocious, it’s like a few drunks at a bar that won’t shutup and know nothing out the game  

Edited by Garbo

I am sort of interested in tonight's result, but both teams are so unappealing I reckon I will just glance at the scores from time to time. And as for listening to commentators gush over Curnow, Cripps, Ginnivan, the Temu-wizard etc.... no thanks.

Has anyone else noticed that the Advantage rule has changed interpretation?

it seems that simply all the players stopping and requesting clarity on the free is no longer a problem. As long as one of the team wants to take the advantage.

5–10 Seconds later, “Play on”, No problem.

Yea forgot about those. Well actually I had hypnosis performed to erase the 200 season permanently.

Blues were unlucky in both those seasons.

Not because we beat them but because 94 I think they were one of the better teams and went out in straight sets.

In 2000 urgghhhh, they were probably the only side close to beating Essendon.

Neither channel is appealing. The radio is not much better.
I accidentally hit the mute switch on the remote – and I’ve never been happier!!

Hawks are more than capable of playing the contested inside game, like a scrum where they then release out wide and just run.

Better to watch than our style unfortunately.


 

Australia lucky.   Penalty hit the post

  • 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.

  • 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.
