I want us to beat the Handbaggers

Comrades.

We can worry about permutations and draft choices - the wind blows where it wills.

I just want us to beat the Handbaggers down at Handbagger Stadium - especially if those big Zeppelins in the Geelong Cheer squad are in attendance.

It is as simple as that. I want us to do it especially for Slaphead Chapman and Cameron Ling, the Toxic Avenger.

And I want to hear the sooking afterwards.

    If it's not a windy day we'll have them on toast.

    About as meaningless as R22 in 2007.

    We do that and we have wasted the pain of 2008/2009.

    I hate to say it, but you're spot on!

    Yep. Smash 'em. Make 'em doubt themselves. Cause them to choke another flag. Go Dees.

    Comrade there is a much wider malaise than the pain of the last couple of years - and that is our mental softness.

    As a supporter since 71 and a member since 82, I have seen it year after year, decade after decade.

    Address that in a sustained fashion, and everything else will be sorted out eventually.

    While I would dearly love to get 1 and 2, to my mind we got the priority pick last year with Watts AND Jurrahcane.

    This discussion is a bit pointless. Whatever opinions the two of us may hold, it will make jack-all difference to where we finish at the end of the year.

    Additionally, my hatred of the Handbaggers over-rides all other rational considerations.

    Cheers - Biffinator

    If we beat the cats, by then I will have completely lost faith in getting Scully, but I can tell you this, I will celebrate like we were never going to get a PP...

    Beating them over there? It doesn't get a whole lot better, IMO.

    Then we could come out in round 22 and snatch another over the Saints, and people will be talking about us positively again. Would be a HUGE reward for players like Moloney, Bruce, Green, Whelan, Davey who have earned a LOT of respect from LFC supporters, and deserve respect from opposition supporters too.

    • 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.
