Redleg

I have not cared about them for some time Redleg.

It should be renamed the Midfield Award as no one else can seemings score votes now.

And for that matter, the 'famous midfielders' award, ie someone from one of the top 4 teams or 'famous' a la Ablett. Not saying the winners are undeserving, but just makes it uninteresting.

    Brownlow winner doesn't make the AA team and was overlooked in four drafts.

    Shows good players are still out there and can be developed.

    in all seriousness maybe we should put it aside for a decade or so.

    Same with 31 bb or at least wait till someone clearly proves they have the ability level to carry it.

    I am of the opposite opinion. Move it onto someone, anyone, as soon as possible. Let the new bloke make his own history in it. I love nostalgia as much as anyone, but we have to live in the present. Let's remember the past, but not live there.

    If you want nostalgia, bring back the blazers ... :-) (sorry OD)

    I reckon the idea of a bloke making a number his own is fine.. There are many to select from. Two numbers with much weight attached are 11 and 31 though

    I woulndt want either if playing...Id take some non descript numeral and say, this is me.

    ( i know just about all numbers have history ...)

    I think it is time for a coffee and a bit of reflection R and B

    You will then come back and remove that last line!

    Yes, but Jimmy stopped wearing 11 in 1998. As for 31, I can barely remember Barassi wearing it. At some point, we have to move on and let the next lot make their own history. For me, that is next season for all numbers. I like it when the bloke in 2 does well (certainly the case now), and when the bloke in 9 does well (not so much recently, but a few seasons ago he was flying), but of course I would be just as happy if it were 7, 44 or 99.

    Thanks, OD. Had my coffee, and I still think the same :blink::wacko: . FWIW I liked the blazers, but I am not going to die in a ditch for them. It was worth it for the stir, anyway ... :) (now I think I am channelling jazza ... :wacko::wacko: )

    They should throw the jumpers in a pile on the change room floor before the first game.

    First in best dressed,no arguments and who cares what number youve got.

    • 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.
