Forum Game..DEMONLAND V TALKING CARLTON, 2nd of NOV

Featured Replies

Haha what's the bet it'll be 35 degrees again for the third forum game in a row!

thanks Doggo...

As for the weather, I bloody hope not!

 

aparently, Bomerblitz couldnt field a side on the weekend and Saintsational players had to play for them. Certainly hope that doesnt happen to us. There is NO WAY i am ever pulling on a Carlton jumper.

Also, aparently, the field umpire did a knee and needs a reco. That sucks!!!

Praying to the good lord that my teeth don't get knocked out!!!

"32 players..."

no, benno...

rollinson 65 is a non-playing sponsor from demonology...

and redleg and whispering jack are coaches...

there will be enough game time as everyone can stand, I promise you...

and blessed_hands has a habit of getting sent off... :lol:

I assume you're referring to Brent Crosswell but I think that might be a trifle unfair because he was a great at Carlton and good value at Melbourne.

I have to think about that one and am open to suggestions.

My initial reaction would be the Vinnie Catoggio but there might be a better one lurking around ... James Cook?

Phil Pinnell

Michael Young

Paul Hurst

Brent Heaver

Peter Rohde

Ronald Barassi????

It's true. I'm a loose cannon.

Can't control my white line fever.

Meanwhile, "The Snitch" is talking all sorts of jive over at the Carlton forum.

Sounds like a job for the wise_monkey.

so we're starting at 2, is there going to be a warm up ect. i'd hate for all u older blokes 2 do a hammy

I'll need a warm up.

I've done no fitness in months, am getting fatter by the day and still haven't learnt how to kick...

I'll be really helpful.

I'm with you Mick. A warm up would be good.

Benno..., Rollo usually posts up here what people are to bring or recommend bringing ie: mouthguards, jumpers etc...

Looks like the heatwave is staying away so therefore the sunscreen may not need to appear. However...this IS Melbourne. ;)

Let's try to get there between 1-1:30pm to have a stretch, a kick, a yarn and talk some tactics.

I drove past Gosh's paddock this afternoon - there's a small fenced off area on the half forward flank, about 2 x 2 meters. Let's hope it's removed by the weekend.

I just got in from a 10km run - part of a gruelling training routine for the weekend's game.

And our boy Blessed has just started pre-season with Port Melbourne. He's fit!

At least there'll be a few of us to chase the pill around all day. :unsure:

I'm happy to give "The Snitch" a touch up, but wouldn't it be more fun if both of us took him out. Personally, I don't think he's got the fitness or the nerve to get anywhere near the play.

Does training for VFL goal umpiring count?

Wait, even if it did... I haven't done any yet.

10km!? Never in my life.

"Wet weather thinking required and please bring boots with decent stops...."

Melway map reference 2G E10...

TRAIN... to richmond station, walk south down punt road (city side). Walk past the collingwood training ground. If you come to boulton parade, you have gone too far...

CAR... free parking may be available at the punt road oval. If not, try the richmond side streets south of swan street...

WEATHER... extended forecast says 19 degrees, morning rain showers clearing. The operative word is "showers", so footy boots are a must (mitch, please tell scotty fcs so he won't be slipping and sliding but taking good, solid marks on those leads)...

people, it's melbourne and the bluebuggers are promising us a contest...

if we can believe our scout, robbo24, they have the personnel to provide a real contest and a tough game...

people, it's melbourne so bring water AND suncreen !!!

helpers... we have never had enough additional water, so don't slack off on your commitments...

I have 4 additional guernseys, but bring additional jumpers if you have them for players without...

AFTER MATCH DRINKS... crickerters arms hotel, punt road...follow the crowd...

if anyone has last-minute info for the coaches (can't make it, can make it with extra players etc, I invite you to ring me on my mobile on the day 0408 698 328...

see you sunday at 1pm or thereabouts...

  • 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 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.
