I think the leaking was a total disgrace that has damaged us as a club considerably and THAT should be investigated

Agree. Our brand was damaged and that should be part of any trade off with the AFL, if there is any need to.

    If the AFL really want to clean things up they'll charge McLean with bringing the game into disrepute. They need to get the message out that players and officials who have problems with their former clubs should go to the AFL - and not to the media. Whatever they conclude about our behaviours etc., they should definitely sanction McLean.

    Where would that leave Terry Wallace, Fev and Libba?

    In the clear - as far as the AFL is concerned they said nothing !

    They've already picked McLean out of the pack once - they should be consistent and do it again !!

    consistent + AFL ..... doesn't compute

    True - but I'm desperately trying to justify sanctioning McLean. Maybe I should go back to Redleg - and point out that it is inconsistent with treatment of Libba, Fev and Wallace !!

    They will love it then. Why don't we suggest stripping a few flags from teams that cheated with the salary cap. That should go down well.

    Hasn't happened yet has it? Perhaps Carlton in 1995? - McLean's employer!

    What would happen if a journo hinted at it? Pies to lose 2010 flag with Pendles and Daisy involved, Hawks to lose 2008 flag with Buddy and Roughy involved, Blues to lose 1995 Flag as a result of salary cap cheating and a number of those involved playing. Bombers flag of 2000 could also be at risk.

    Imagine the outpouring of support for us then, urging the AFL to make this all go away. .

    Not to mention any drug investigations into said teams from yore. Did they do drug tests back then, & if so, do they keep the samples?

    Like the olympics & the 'tour de france', retesting would make things very interesting.

    Lets add WC to the list of removed flags then. You have won me.

    Well then lets give the AFL a cooked can of Baked Beans, unopened to share. And hand them the can opener.

    Eddie Everywhere is calling Vlad now as we speak. He wants some beans too.

    • 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.
