Just read in the Age during lunch break that Luke Ball will most likley come to Melbourne if Stchokers cannot create a deal with Collywobbles. Stchokers say they dont want pick's, only players. My concern is if this deal doesnt happen is whether the mighty Dees should pick up Luke Ball - former captain of st kilda and 1 time all australian and grand final player.

We picked up Liam Jurrah last year, so if we take Luke Ball this year, will we be forefitting someother new exciting kid?

The way i see it is that around 2/3 of our list are 22 years or under. So by including in the current 1, 2, 11, 18..PDS#1 picks this will continue the youth policy to ensure a very exciting future. Or do we add experience to our side, which is what we currently clearly lack.

IMO we should not pick up Ball cause it will be doing what Richshit do is trade all their picks for washed up players instead of home grooming. Im going on an allout youth policy, who cares if we win 5 or 6 games next year (like hawks won the spoon in 04 or 05) when in 4 years we'll be amazing. Thoughts?

  • 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.
