Has to be the worst football jumper I've ever seen.

It’s pretty close.

But I think Hawthorn still has that covered – their ridiculous Power Rangers top, and maybe even the Harlequin one as runner-up.

    Seems to be the way things are going.

    Just need to be linked to other sides/go Home factor, be in the middle of contract negotiations, and then have one or two “breakout” games.

    Might try and get a job with the suns. Be a mail boy for $450,000 a year, haha

    Just when you think Hawthorn have designed the worst jumper in history they come up with a even worse one. GC's new one is just such a nothing guernsey. I'm not a fan of having big stupid looking logos in the centre of them but having an invisible one is probably worse. Most of the post VFL teams have gone from eyesores to traditional styled ones eventually. Think Power, Dockers and the Brisbane Bears. GWS and GC will probably do the same eventually.

    It's not hard to understand ...he plays for himself. Culture killer.

    The best clubs understand that a team is a mix of people and personalities as much as football or positional abilities.

    The pies are very strong and well run club and have a bold FD that act on what they are seeing.

    He's been OK at the Hawks in a team they were trying to inject personality into. Now they're getting serious he'll fall by the wayside.

    This isn’t explaining what happened in the trade this is you mansplaining what you think me & my ovaries don’t understand

    To be fair, the Hawks have an advantage with their colours 😳

    Are you really saying that you didn’t like the traditional power lightning bolt? Or traditional Green purple and white Freo/Balkans flag?

    Sydney looking bog ordinary in skills and structure.

    Hi Stu. Yeah, I thought both were horrible. The current Dockers one is much better but I would add mint green trim. Perhaps on the middle chevron. A mint green clash guernsey would look good too.

    interesting to see that bevo continues to mix things up - o'donnell and khamis have swapped ends from the first five weeks, and the bont and libba have started at centre bounces positioned deensively

    Nasty hyperextension to Sam Darcy's knee. Subbed out. Hope not too serious for his sake.

    I am a real fan of Buku Khamis, love the way he plays. If the Dogs have to find a way to keep Naughton, Darcy and JUH I would make a play for this kid. Could be anything.

    unlucky for the bloke, but about time other rivals pick up the injury bug we have had to start the season

    Saints don’t have a midfield. Why bother spending 1.5+ large on TDK.

    If I was them I’d be looking for inside midfielders.

    What the hell has happened to Jack Steele.

    Maybe the problem is tis new happy & relaxed version of Ross Lyon 😂

    Ah yes, the old "they've gone past us" Saints at it again.

    (Which made no sense to say, given they finished above us on the ladder last year, but is just a timely reminder that it's very easy to get sucked into early-season form - and that's also a reminder to people on here who have already started talking about us winning the next two or whatever).

    • 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?

      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.
