He is not on the injury list.

He did not play last week for Casey nor the MFC.

He has not been mentioned in despatches.

SO

Where is he?

    Will probably play at Casey because I can see Moloney and Bate being promoted this week after playing well there last week against Collingwood.

    I dont really know.

    The last thing I saw of his was "The Bucket List"which was a pretty schmaltzy kind of "48 Hours" for retirees.

    Nothing since the 70's has really been any good with him.

    I enjoyed "As good as it gets"

    "The Crossing Guard", directed by Sean Penn was his best movie in last 30 I reckon.

    Heart breaking.

    Last I can see is jaw injury - Nicholson to miss up to three weeks - from the 30th July.

    He would be a chance this week.

    Thanks Paul.

    He seems to be a forgotten man as he hasn't and doesn't appear in any injury list and nothing was mentioned about him in this week's Burgan/Misson injury update video.

    Maybe we are keeping him as a smokey for the finals?

    Included in the squad of 25 for Sunday...

    Rather than take five easy pieces he's been working on his game down to the last detail and by all reports is simply shining. Expect his game, if he is named as one of a few good men in the final squad, to be as good as it gets. He's no easy rider is our Nicho!

    Randall Patrick McMurphy is the one most Demonlanders can probably relate to .

    One of the best roles ever,

    Nicholson just needs to work on.......

    The Last Detail-What a freakin classic bit of film that is.

    Got to agree with the "five easy pieces" one hardtack

    Still think it is the best ever JN movie.

    Surprised you know it from memory that was 1970

    Great year for the pies as well

    Anyone seen our man Nicho in "The King Of Convent Garden?"

    Wouldn't 1968's Easy Rider have been his first feature role? Five Easy Pieces was 1970. He and Dennis Hopper were two of my favourite psychos... Nicholson in The Shining and Hopper in Blue Velvet.

    And how could we forget One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest!!

    • 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.
