    I agree, the Return of Connolly along with schwabb is just inspired.

    For those to young to remember Connolly playing-he Bled for our club & was touted as captain material before he did the old knee.

    Good on ya Chris. You were always far too good for the Shockers....

    Yes, I've been thanking Jimmy and Schwabby heaps, but Chris deserves equal praise too.

    This is the most excited I've been about our list and football department in my lifetime. I actually believe that we can give the premiership title a real crack (injury and player management permitting) with our young developing list. There's probably only two questions marks I have about the current list and that is another KP forward and elite midfielder. Furthermore, I also have full confidence in the current board and FD to get us out of financial ruin and put us up with the other powerhouses in the AFL.

    Go you Demons!!!

    Yeah Chris has been great. Was always a great clubman. Great bloke. When I was a kid in the '80s I had a kick to kick with the man at the Lakeside Oval at 3qtr time in a Dees reserves game. He said I had to work on my left foot. I didn't.

    He had to swallow a bit of a bitter pill when he didn't get the coaching gig. He dearly would have loved to coach the club. But he has been great in his current role.

    Good work Connolls.

    Sounds like the first two picks in the 2009 Draft for those positions!

    I agree ol' "cuddles" (Chris Connolly) is doing an AWESOME job for the MFC!

    I love it when he gets interviewed by the media and basically makes them look like a bunch of fools when he twists their questions back onto them! :D

    He was funny on 'Future Stars' this morning. I really enjoyed his stories and the fact that he barely answered any of Hutchie's questions directly.

    Brilliant.

    • 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.
