Why oh why does this need to be rocket science? There are 22 highly trained footballers who take the field. They have had six months day in day out to show something at the start of the season.

Either they are very bad at learning or they are very bad at instinct or both, however if 22 fit players cannot assemble themselves in a hurry to stop being thrashed then I have severe concerns that it is a huge Attitude issue and a complete disconnect with the coaching group.

I just don't get it. How can a side be so [censored] so early in the season.

    Hey Biff...it may be ok for dees supporters who are in primary school but as for us older types, good chance we will all be dead when that happens. By the way I've been sucking it up for 40 years

    Being better is one thing. Every team being 100 points better is another.

    Maybe thats part of the problem, social media, computer games, other social activities, and too much spare cash and time, and not enough real work ethic and exposure to life outside the club !

    I got a letter from the membership staff last week, valuing my nine years consecutive membership and expressing hope I would soon re-sign for 2013. They must have mailed out a few of these. I was given a phone number to ring to talk directly to the person who wrote the letter to discuss any issue/s re Melbourne for this year.

    But first make sure that your Twitter account displays your real name... the players certainly don't hide their identity (if it's to be about accountability, then set the example).

    • 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.
