Where do we play mitch Clark then? And how do we buy a midfield?

If you build any part of your team around the reliance on one player, you've got problems.

Every team that has a single awesome player in any one area of the field has someone to back them up. Why there is this belief that adding another superstar to an area already with one would disadvantage the team is beyond me.

Fact is we don't have someone that kick be as reliant to kick goals as Clark is. Having two options...wow!

 

Story of the game so far is we are trying hard but way too many turnovers, North have scored five from our poor disposal.

But...excellent fight back giving us some value.

Real shame Watts and Clark got injured second half of the year, because I believe we would have won our past two, and who knows if they were out there today, we would be right in it.

When we have the ball outside 50 marking options such as Martin, Sylvia are trotting around "thinking someone else will do it, is it my responsibility to provide a target ?"

Lacking serious nous....

something many overlook in ther idolisng of thsi guy.. hes really not thatclever for such a skilled player. ( hes not alone though, not at all)

Occasionally see an opportunity as it unfolds...but thi sguy would never make a Chess player !!!

 

I think we did OK in that half. Roos are OK, nothing special, but certainly a top-8 team.

To be honest I am relieved we have a score on the board. We're playing OK.

Moloney...dumb dumb dumb footballer

one dumb will suffice

Where do we play mitch Clark then? And how do we buy a midfield?

shhhh !!!

Jones....gets better every game...is a star in my eyes....biggest heart in the club.

I think I can safely bury any reservations Ive harboured about this bloke. Too often too alone in this team

The way Mitch Clark plays will see him in the emergency rooms quite often I reckon. Cloke is essential, not only because of the extra target he provides, but for the insurance he gives us. And we don't need to give up anything for him.

Eggzactly....Clark and Cloke would be 20% of our salary cap....!!!

But if they kick 80% of our goals, wouldn't you say it would be worth it?

As long as we have a midfield to get it to them, then fine.....

I could just see that 15 second goal coming. I don't know how many times that's happened against Melbourne over the years, but it frustrates the Hell out of me!

As long as we have a midfield to get it to them, then fine.....

We won't be giving up any players to get Cloke, so I'd say our midfield certainly won't be harmed.

Two goals in a minute to start the second half! WTF is this sh#t? Too tired I suppose?

Make that three goals in two minutes.

Why the [censored] doesn't anyone run forward when we win the footy?

Why oh why?!

I feel like smashing my head against the level 3 railing.

Nathan Jones is just about the only one preventing me from walking out.

Someone please explain to me why we refuse to have a target up forward. Any target. Even Spencer.

It's infuriating because North aren't great, and if we weren't such a shambles of a team, we could beat them.

Not fit enough to cover the miles. Blame Bailey for that.

Why the [censored] doesn't anyone .......

Because they don't have the nous nor foresight or judgement to do things themselves during a game. I dare say the instructions are to provide a target when need be. Not looking around and realising what the team needs (ie that no one is in the goal square) is about instincts and smarts....which we lack.

I think we did OK in that half. Roos are OK, nothing special, but certainly a top-8 team.

To be honest I am relieved we have a score on the board. We're playing OK.

So much for that essay.

Glutton for punishment like the rest of us.

Sylvia is having a shocker. He just stood there abd watched Moloney look for a target.

Think he ll be in trouble after today. Neeld gave him a chance, end lf a day a tiger dosnt change its stripes.


[censored] this.

Honestly I give up trying to make sense of this abomination.

So much for that essay.

Glutton for punishment like the rest of us.

Between AFL, Facebook, and just the internet in general, it's any wonder how I get homework done in the first place.

Seriously, wtf is this [censored]?

 

Wow. I just saw the Lindsay Thomas replay. "Blight on the game" is right.

  • 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.
