    When did that happen ? I thought he was one of sandys best last week??

    Not sure when it happened just told today by James Frawley

    Gee, I hope Greeny is ready for a game....how we miss him !!!!

    I know for a fact that Green WILL be in next week.

    I heard it from the horse's mouth.

    I was in a lift with him at half time and he said he is defiantly back

    Have i missed something? How was Bell's game today utterly horrible, and the worst in history?

    Sure it wasn't great, but he lifted in the second half, had about 10 touches in the third quarter.

    Agree in the 3rd and a bit of the 4th he found some ball, but overall he was beaten by his opponent and his direct opponent kicked 3 goals in like the first 10 minutes.

    I disagree with people saying Bartram should be dropped, he gives 100%.

    I was really disapointed watching JMAC. I love the guy but he didn't give 2 shits. How was it when he kicked across goal in front of the members, ball was turned over and he just stood there with his hands on his knees until they kicked a goal, it took about 20 seconds from the turnover for them to score, he could have got their to at least put a bit more pressure on.

    Newton really struggled, despite being a great tease with another piece of Juice (the goal), he was crap.

    A strange yet amazing fact over this season is that Valenti and CJ are almost our best players in the team. Very weird yesterday to rather someone kick it to CJ over Bruce.

    The defence tried hard all day and I liked Warnocks effort, apart from that dropped mark.

    It was a bad game, it was cold, boring, cold, poor skills, cold and im probably going to get sick which sucks because I have no sick leave left.

    Onto the changes for next week.

    OUT: Bell, Newton

    IN: Green, Wonaeamirri

    OUT: Bell, Newton, Bartram.

    IN: Wheatley, Wonaemirri, Green.

    I can see Carroll getting picked though.

    Might be just me but.......

    i think Bate needs a trip to sandy actually.

    He has been pretty poor as of late and really seems to be lacking confidence to take the game on.

    OUT- Newton, Bell, Bate, Jamar

    IN- Aussie, Green, White, Yze

    Has anybody got a clue?????????????? It is all about playing and developing young players regardless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Sorry.

    Yes I would prefer that too.

    We can't be 100% sure Wheatley is coming back though.

    Pretty certain Green will play this week, hoping the 22 is below.

    BP: Whelan Warnock Martin

    HB: Green Garland Petterd

    C: Davey Jones CJohnson

    HF: Bruce Bate Maric

    FP: Wona Miller PJ

    R: Jamar Macca Dunn

    Inter: Buckley, Valenti, Morton, Bartram/Sylvia (either way)

  • Quote

    Well firstly can I say it will be pleasing to see the team on Thursday and see 4 players on the interchange for the first time in months....

    Anyway:

    IN: Petterd, Holland, Wonaeamirri, Green

    OUT: Newton, Bell, Bartram, Sylvia,

    If Green not fit then Sylvia stays. Davey's a possibility to get suspended.

    Without having seen a replay on TV, I reckon Davey has something to worry about. His brain explosion when he ironed out Thomas, with no eyes for the footy, could cost him a week or two.

    Saw it on the Tele a number of times. Absolutely nothing to answer.

    Nothing was even mentioned about him having anything to worry about.

    • 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.
