Well 2019 has closed and we are once again looking up from the bottom. Having got that negativity out of the road I am staggered at the amount of poor / pointless rubbish on Demonland at present. We have thread after thread of negative crap the majority of which has little if any grounding in fact. I feel this thread will once again be the only one worth reading.

Bananas are good at the moment, just had a banana and peanut butter sandwich for lunch.

    Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

    Though that LBW appeal by Lyon in the dying stages was as plum as they get

    It was and only MFC type luck, they used the last review on a certain failure. Captain admitted Cummings told him not to review, as it was a certain not out. 

    And Lyon misses a stumping he wouldn't have missed since he was in kinder, with Leach half way down the pitch, trying to get back.

    I'm not a big fan of the 2 reviews each per innings. If it's a howler, it should be corrected, regardless. And don't get me started about how the umpires stupidity won the one day World Cup for England.

    But yes, we had many chances. I like Tim Paine, but his lack of experience shows.

    BBO assured me we couldn't possibly lose at start of play yesterday...

    He is a drunk, what would he know? He should stick to self flagellation in his dungeon at the Manor.

    I hope the injuries don't affect our game next week.

    Who are we playing in our first final?

    I have worked long and hard to reach the peak of this honourable profession Red - I would appreciate you not commenting on it in a disparaging manner.

    As to your vulgar suggestion as to how I should spend my (not drinking) time. I'll have you know that it is the maid who benefits from my considerable flagellating skills!

    As a Dees supporter, I appreciate the benefits of a drink or two.

    I am so disillusioned with footy and our season, I have already stopped taping the 2 sunday morning footy shows.

    Still taping the rest during the week, in the hope there is a good trade rumour for us.

    Mr Leg I fear you have slipped into a serious case of depression and a visit to a specialist is now over due.

    As for watching " tv footy shows" I fear that maybe your biggest problem.

    You must believe they will offer words of wisdom or similar. 

    Sadly I have to advise you that they probably the root cause of your depression.

    i have two suggestions that I believe will help.

    (1) do not watch TV footy shows.

    (2) Aquire a taste for good single malt, It will help to get you through the bad days.

    Depends on how many scotches you (or they) have had.

    After a few more, elephants fly as well.

    • 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.
