Really struggling to motivate myself to get off the couch and go to the game.

No hope.

    Going purely to the cheer on greeny in his 250th, only motivation.

    Neeld on SEN:

    talking about Watts's ankle. Was supposed to be ready but its a high grade ankle sprain that is taking longer than expected.

    Asked about which players are going to be the future - Mentioned 3 - Sam Blease...'he's working hard offensively. Endurance needs improving. Sees a big future. Strauss - sees a big future for him. Sub 3 weeks in a row for a variety of reasons. Jetta - big future. Rushed him straight back in.

    Re Beemer. "let's show some energy" His defensive efforts were not good. Carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders. Go back to the VFL and play with some freedom and enjoyment.

    Morton - working his way back into form in VFL. Neeld hesitated when answering... He gets asked a lot about Cale a lot. weeks to demonstrate he can get back to form (?) Suggested look beyond his testing and numbers (ie: don't care where he was drafted he needs to do certain things and he clearly isnlt doing them - my interpretation!)

    I'm glad to hear Neeld rates my boy Jetta. Watching Cale Morton for the Scorpions isn't filling me with much confidence at all, though.

    Stranger things gave happened but I can't see the boys getting anywhere close to the Roos today.

    Contested possession will be a highlight with both sides to go very hard. If we do okay out of the middle we will be caught short once again I the forward 50 unless a miracle takes place.

    Looking forward to se how big Spencer goes today after Neeld saying he will match up well against Goldstein. A great game will do him wonders.

    Moloney will want to prove his worth today. If he fails to fire again then it will be disappointing to say the least after a couple of weeks off, unfortunately just one of playing in the VFL.

    Grimes has been playing into some great form and leading the way. Trengove still needs that performance to make us go wow.. Hopefully he pulls it out today.

    If we have a chance it will be though Sylvia and Green in attack.

    Chip to account for Petrie is our only hope.

    Roo's by 38 points.

    Not going today. Have a 2,000 word essay on Media Law due on Thursday. Haven't even started. Too many times this season I've compromised my studies to spend a rare free day watching Melbourne lose.

    I'll have the tele on though :P

    Don't give us a chance today, at all.

    But I'd love some of the senior blokes (especially Moloney) to stand up and show some spirit for Greeny's 250th.

    My biggest hope is that we only get beaten by a few goals every quarter rather than get smashed in 1-2 quarters, can't stomach another week of MFC talking about how "4 quarter efforts".

    • 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.
