ALL-STARS SQUAD

Aaron Davey, Liam Jurrah, Jamie Bennell (Melbourne).

I am proud that our guys are representing, but, please - for the love of God - do not get injured.

Richmond have named a pretty lame squad, even for them, but we have got some of our best talent out there...

    Maybe, but for them to represent indigenous footballers in this game is a great honour... so I am really pleased for them; besides, I can't really see that Richmond side being capable of inflicting anything, much less injury, on anyone.

    How does Bennell get named ahead of Wonna?

    Expect Jurrah to explode on Friday night. Not literally, like he is prone to in pre-season games, but in the sense that he will be best on ground.

    Probably for the same reason he would in an MFC 22.

    If Bennell and Wonna were in the draft at your pick who would you take - I'd take Bennell.

    For a start, he is fitter.

    I would have thought the fact that his late father having a strong involvement in NT/indigenous footy might have helped get Ozzie a guernsey, perhaps it is fitness as suggested above

    Bennell is underrated

    What, you mean he is not really going to blow up?:)

    I found it intresting that in the article they say "AFL players Cyril Rioli, Buddy Franklin and Liam Jarrah."

    I guess Jurrah has become a bigger drawcard than Davey in the media now.

    Good luck to all those picked. I can't wait to watch and get some footy fix.

    My tip: All Stars by 25pts. Davey to star.

    Also interesting to watch out for a B.Miller who has been named for the Tigers.

    GREAT, I don't want our stars playing in this Mickey Mouse crap.

    Maybe "mickey mouse crap" to you, but for those players representing the indigenous footballers is considered quite an honour. But you're right, why should we care about what they want... we know what's best for them!

    Practice matches where players have to travel and potentially get injured playing against Richmond thirds, YES to me are Mickey Mouse whatever the cause.

    I never actually mentioned any "cause"...but, whatever.

    • 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.
