    BL 3281 is with me now and says he can't play. Appaerently his 100kg frame is just not up to it anymore.

    I emailed Dooky a few days ago, but he is away at the moment and hasn't returned my message. Hopefully I'll find out soon. As for myself, I'm still in, but battling against time with a hamstring injury which I sustained about 4 weeks ago. It just hasn't come good yet, but I still have 2 weeks from today, so fingers crossed. I'll be at the game regardless.

    many thanks for that offer, pringle... :rolleyes:

    we are short 2 players IMO...

    30 was the number of committed players we had last time against this mob, and we scraped in for a win by the skin of our teeth...

    and hoping that cribbes responds to my emails, because we are desperately in need of a ruckman...

    doggo, benno and madness have filled in (in past games) but these guys are better suited to other roles...

    come in cribbes, robbo24 and any other past players or new players...

    we need you...

    "It's taking a bloody long time to have an MRI..."

    if I have understood rivvo's emails correctly, the doctors started with consevative management, and the MRI is scheduled for January 29...

    rivvo is going to try to make the game on february 8 as a spectator, so we should find out more then...

    I don't mind playing in the ruck again, i think i've done a decent job in the centre square in the past, but ideally it would be nice to have a strong (tall!) ruckman take the majority of the ruck and myself play a smaller support role. This match is gonna be a very tight and fierce contest (well, for forum games anyway) and we'll definitely need to win the midfield battle and be switched on all day. They'll be hungry to beat us after last time.

    Cribbes is a very accomplished player and very tall ruckman, come in mate!!

    the forum footy organiser on talkingcarlton, barnsey, is a top bloke and obviously a talented and energetic organiser...

    he wants a clarification, and I am happy to post it here...

    the ex-AFL player (who played for carlton and may play for talkingcarlton) is a mate of a poster on their site...

    they have not gone out actively recruiting to gain an unfair advantage...

    that seems fine with me.

    doggo, id be happy to do most of the around the grounds stuff, im just completely useless at the centre bounce - although i guess id have a go if i had to

    I'm looking VERY doubtful to play. Although it was 4 weeks ago that I did the hammy, the healing process hasn't gone to plan. I may have tried to overdo the rehab. These things happen when you get a bit older I guess, although at 29 I'm hardly over the hill. Went to the physio today and going for an ultrasound tomorrow to assess the damage. Hopefully it's not worst case scenario and a few more days of rest will see me through. I'm still optimistic and hoping that, unlike '426', I don't earn the name '122' :P

      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.
