Yep itโ€™s a real puzzle, Champion Data measures us as the second fastest ball movers in the competition, yet we when we enter our F50, everyone else is already there?

Champion Data . . . talk about the emperor with no clothes.

Very few leads or movement too often, so opposition backmen guard grass. And going back 2022 - 2024, our forward gameplan was kick to contest, and get goals from ground balls or stoppages. I think the congestion is also a flow on from then.


The surface at the left end of screen is a bloody disgrace.

If anyone does a knee they should sue the AFL for allowing play in a substandard ground.

Ugh Iโ€™d forgotten how punchable Papley is.

Great footballer with great goal sense, but the worst over-celebrator in AFL history. Annoys the carp out of me.

Awww Harmesy and JJ ๐Ÿฅน

Commentators said it was due to an Andrea Bocelli concert and relayed turf

Weird thing is Bocelli said it looked fine when he left


Far out, that free against Darcy ๐Ÿ˜ก

Reckon itโ€™s just me but I donโ€™t mind Papley. Gets in peopleโ€™s faces and they fall for it. Love his energy and wish we had him

That concert was months ago though, what have the ground staff been doing?

Not much apparently

disgraceful maintenance, not like you donโ€™t get rain in Shydney

What a fantastic contest and massive pressure. And I have always thought that the jumpers of these two are a spectacular contrast especially at night - second only of course to Dees v anyone.

Chad Warnerโ€ฆ that was NOT a mark. Umps at it again

Their 50s look open because nobody can keep their feet โ€“ half of the players are lying on the ground.

BTW. Whatโ€™s happened to the SCG this week? Mario Lanza concert? Pavarotti? Caruso? Certainly looks like they have dug up half the ground. Couldnโ€™t be from that one 12 weeks ago? Were they radioactive?

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... itโ€™s time to discuss this weekโ€™s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliverโ€™s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line โ€ฆ 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 clubโ€™s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the clubโ€™s perspective, and the teamโ€™s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarksonโ€™s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed โ€” 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.ย  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.
