    No surprises. Hope to see Chris Johnson get another game

    Bench should be: Frawley, CJ, Morton and Valenti.

    I want to see Whelan in the side, but can't justify dropping the other 4.

    Valenti against Sydney seems a good fit, plus he deserves another chance.

    Out: Yze

    i missed the game last week but a few around here thought yze played well?

    Now we just need the Sandy team released so we can work it out for ourselves, they have been doing us a favour the last few weeks.

    I agree, Valenti would be handy against Sydney who are big on stoppages.

    Agree Jaded - seems as though I was one of the few who was disappointed at Adem's performance at critical points under pressure on Sunday. Let's find out what SV can do with a couple of games.

    Yze made a trip up to do some work with school kids. Either it's really poor planning by the club to expose kids to a bloke that isn't going to play or.....

    Or they are trying to get value for money out of his contract ;)

    I really hope they drop him. I've had enough of his selfishness and laziness. It goes against everything Bailey is trying to teach the younger players.

    Your right Jaded, he's to slow & not hungry enough for todays footy, but ATM we're short on goal kickers.

    How does Yze improve this? :unsure:

  • Quote

    I wouldnt call Yze slow... i kno he aint lightning but slow is a bit rich! I think one of his qualities is he is quick on the lead n in general play he's relatively elusive, doesnt get caught with the ball often

    I know man. But Garland has showed me anything's possible. If he plays rubbish every game for the rest of the year then we can make a finite judgement. But both Garland and DB have given me faith that anything is possible if you try to be the best you can be.

    Bode will probably play.

    Which isn't a shocking decision, may as well see if he can do a Garland.

    Frawley out, there isn't a match up for him bar O'Keefe and he will be dominant.

    I was going to say Valenti will be suited to Sydney shut down game style, but they have changed that. They are both shut down and free running, so I just want him to play. Him and Wonaeamirri could be some of our few good stories out of the year.

    Match ups.

    Warnock on Hall

    Garland on Magic

    Whelan on O'Keefe

    Whelan on O'Keefe

    O'Keefe is in red hot form and will probably make a meal of Whelan with his hard running. An in-form Bell is the perfect match-up but considering he is unavailable I expect Bartram or Bode to get the task.

  • Quote

    Barty will probably get the job, I hope he has a cracker, imagine he locks O'Keefe out of the game, his confidence will go skyhigh.

    o'keefe is a tough match up. he is very strong overhead. i dont know if either bode or bartram would get the job due to this.

    O'Keefe is decptively tall at 188cm and is way stronger than Barty. Will throw him around, if Bartram is on O'keefe I will be astonished.

    • 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.

    • 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.
