In my opinion until we get rid of Schwab we are always going to be average. For a guy whose been a CEO for years only twice has the team he's working for made the finals. He causes friction amongst players and footy department, if wasn't for the thrashing by Geelong in 2011 and Jimmy passing away he would be gone. lts a well known fact Jimmy wanted him out but Garry Lyon, who IMO should stay out of running of the club, said no Bailey was enough to go at the time. l wish Bailey had stayed until the end of the year and Schwab went then.

Now let me see Dave.

You've mentioned something that happened 15 months ago. Is there anything specific you can point to that he's done since then that you can point to that backs up your theory

Cameron Schwab... something something... uh.... Fremantle is no good... something... um... what was I saying?

Given that the club appears to be the best run it has been in living memory, with the most stable and united board, and the astonishing admin-side staff turnover of past years also seems to have stabilised, and the selling of 'distant hope' has been gradually toned down in favour of clear and present actions...

Unless something sinister comes out of the woodwork, I'm a solid fan of Cameron Schwab, have been for some time, and frankly I'm more than a little annoyed by the bizarre and gutless anonymous sniping of internet heroes with no particular accusation to make, just innuendo about as useful and reasonable as 'he was responsible for Liam Jurrah getting in a fight in Alice Springs'.

Ahhhhhhh I see what's happening... Moloney's gone, Morton's gone, Gysbert's gone, so who is the obvious choice for troll target next? Schwab.

I actually have to coin a word for this type of post that both describes and encapsulates... Dumbness. There is so much dumbness in this line of thinking that it needs it's own dictionary entry.

  • 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.
