Too nervous.

Can't wait to get to the game today and see the boys run on! Should be a good day, weather looks to be holding fine, hoping for a crowd North of 70,000.

Dees by 17

Time is going so slow. I cannot wait for the game today, I have talked it up all week to everyone I know. Please all I want is a win today.

I know a lot of people have tipped melbourne as well :wub:

 

Well.... I have not been able to make it over for this match which is a bit devestating....

It is now 10am here in Adelaide and I am edgy as hell..... I can't wait for the big game this arvo.....

I am going to go for a quick kayak in the surf just to take my mind off things for a few hours.....

Go you Dees and good luck young fella.... No pressure eh?? :P

just got home from gym , in the tub , lunch at the waterside then to the G to watch Greeny and Robbo kick ten between them, yes that is realistic. Flash to carve them up across half back. yes Big Kev im excited. the filth is going to be made to understand the G is our homeground not theirs


Have not looked forward to a game like this in years! 70K plus crowd is not out of the question if there weather stays OK. A bit of sun would have been nice. I seriously think we can pull a win off today. We have shown for over a month that we can match the top teams for a half of footy or better! If we can play 3 great quarters of footy we will beat the pies. I know the players have been quoted in the press that they will treat it like any other game, but you know they won`t. This is our GF for the year and Malthouse knows it, just like he came out last year and almost bagged us for lifting so much against his ``blockbuster`` team!

Go Boys and Go Jack!

does anyone have the MELBOURNE version of 'They know we're coming' ? It was on demonland but cant find it. Want to put it on my facebook :D

Go you deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees!

bring it on! Women's game before QBD is in progress, one sided affair, 8.4 to no score. All warm from both the egg and bacon rolls from fed square. Watts is on the ground i think! Edit - yes it was Jack, he was out for a walk around the ground with Jones, no shots at goal, just a walk to relax the nerves. BIG HIT in the warm up watch, felt it from 10 rows back!

I also havent looked forward to a match so much....Today is finally here.... leaving now for the G listen to the radio on the way in and eat a pie nothing better... go Dees.....

No changes to either side. Jack is starting on the pine. Good decision - gives the crowd a better chance to welcome him to the game. Should be a fair roar when he comes on.


did i say freezing? A short shower just sent it to adelaide twilight game territory. Crowd building up nicely. Pre-game was a twenty goal win, to no score. I'm warm though, Cuddles gave me a cuddle! Top bloke, really is.


Before the game I was excited, but worried we'd push them and might get the 4 points, thereby putting us in danger of missing out on a PP... But this is far worse than any win.

Much better. Yes our skills let us down a little bit, but you cant expect to much more from a young side.

 

Mark Jamar - mark of the year nominee round 11. We're only 5 goals down and the odds are 25/1, wish i had online betting, i'd put 5 bucks on in a heartbeat!

EVeryone keeps saying young side. young side let them develop. there are a few oldies in the team you know who should be standing up in a big game like this im disgraced

  • 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.
