We all probably laughed back in March

But I reckon you are going to be very close come 1st September.

I hate saying this but very astute work.

    My God RobbieF you are going to be very close.

    I voted 14th and I thought I had you covered.

    You are obviously a very wise man.

    I will take more notice in the future

    It gives me no joy but the both of us have known for a while that all was not well and I doubt we will be out of the bottom 4 next year either.

    Hopefully we will recruit a bit better now that "he" has gone and we might get a couple of tough quick mids that can win and actually dispose of the ball properly.

    We can only hope the next chief recruiter doesn't try to Cook the books and give himself an extra couple of years in the job by recruiting project players.

    Yes RobbieF feels like I am dancing on someone's grave.

    Damn straight. That's exactly what his game was.

    That's a good point Robbie - picking project players gives one's self extra time

    It also gives the opportunity to blame development when the projects don't pan out

    Interesting theory on self-protective techniques and obfuscation

    Always good to read through old postings/threads like this one. Sometimes we get it so, so right, and other times we get it so, so wrong. A couple of classic examples;

    Apathy central over here, and very little hope. If we finish 10th I'll be surprised. If we finish 14th, I won't. If Richmond finish above us, I will officially resign. Edit: which delusional nutbag voted 1st?! Get help. Immediately.

    Who do you have to write your resignation letter out to Jaded? :P

    I hate to say it, but I think we'll be battling with Port to avoid the bottom (GWS and Gold Coast below - but they don't count).

    Wow Ned, just wow! Can you please give me the lotto numbers for this Saturday night? Cheers.

    • 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.
