Gee adelaide will be filthy they've let hawthorn back in it.

On a side note I watched unfiltered with Hamish Wednesday night with CJ as his guest. Fascinating story with his family and growing up in a war torn country and walking for days to get to a refugee camp.

CJ.?

    Howler of a game in Tassie. Whose brilliant decision was it to schedule a night game in Tassie in winter? Slippery cold snooze fest with tackles, stoppages and carp skills. I put it on mute in the background and watched the cricket - great innings from Stark and a good backup from Hazelwood.

    Boring as bat [censored] . Wonder whether anyone will question Hawthorns selling of games to Tassie. This is truely woeful.

    Also Tassie not only need a stadium roof, they need heated underground turf, state of the art heating. Who’d want to play in 0 degrees on a regular basis.

    I watched it too. At 25 years old CJ has seen and experienced things that have forced him to grow up very quickly. I was impressed with how he views his life now.

    The 'insufficient intent' rule is an absolute blight on the game.

    Crow trying to rush the ball into their scoring zone, mis kicks and pinged. Absolute joke AFL.

    The same reason pickett got done for on Monday. Placing the ball on the ground instead of throwing it back to the opposition player

    The inconsistency on the insufficient intent only makes the rules even more farcical

    In the last 5 minutes two identical spoils go out of bounds. One, by Hawks, trow in. The next by Crows - penalised.

    Get rid of it.

    Why does nothing bad ever happen to Hawthorn? They are charmed

    That last insufficient attempt free was ludicrous and set up the winning goal. Another umpire decided result.

    What is it with the Hawks? Why can’t teams that dominate them beat them?!

    The Crows looked sluggish in the last. Noticeably off the pace, lots of tired players.

    Maybe they need a new fitness guy

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      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.
