Due to 2 late withdrawals for the Eagles Cale Morton has been given the opportunity to be sub today. Good luck Cale.

    Watts in our best every week.

    Who woulda thunk it.

    Playing Cale is admission that you have given up.

    Can't we just forget about Cale Morton? Why is there a need to start a thread every time he gets a game with the Eagles?

    I can only assume the OP thought it was his first game in Eagles colours.

    I think there are at least two other threads floating around from the last couple of weeks though...

    Do we have to start a new thread about cale Morton every time he plays!? Time to seriously get over it and move on. We stuffed up our pick, happens everywhere we now just have to live with it and move on.

    Mods please delete this stupid thread..!

    I just turned on the TV to watch the match.

    Cale kicks a running goal from 50 m.

    The ball goes up the other end after the bounce.

    Cale is standing in the " hole" with the pack coming. He stands his ground gutsily and earns the free when he's crashed. Delivers it well to a team mate.

    9 disposals, one mark, one goal. Fair to say you've seen his highlights. I hope for his sake he can keep it up but statistically he isn't setting them on fire for a guy presumably playing half back deep into the third quarter.

    10 disposals at 100% efficiency and a goal in 20 minutes of play, good god

    Didn't know he was the sub. That's not a bad effort.

    Good on him

    He was a pick number 4, hopefully west coast is the right place for him to start to play some good footy

    I wish I could be as gracious as you lot.

    I see a bloke we spent pick 4 on and, despite his talent, did not give anywhere near his best for the jumper and refused to get hurt. As a result he contributed to many losses and clogged a spot on our list for 5 years.

    Not his biggest fan that's for sure.

    And to think that Jose bloke on here argued that he was our future.

    Speaking of high draft picks, any word on Watts re-signing? he said it would all happen when his manager got back to Australia but still no word

    Nic Nats stats 12 possies 1 mark 26 hitouts. People get so carried away with him taking a good mark or doing something exciting. A ruckman like him and someone who has his talent taking 1 mark doesnt help. I think even our two ruckman are doing better.

    Does a pretty mean impersonation of a palm tree though.

    Could West Coast be persuaded to trade him back to us for our top draft pick?

    If we throw in some of the AFL's money as a sweetener?

    Could we delist sellar and re-draft him on 1,000,000 a year?

    Two kicks, ten handballs, one grab.

    Gerald Healy has him BOG.

    That says it all really. So many people have been conned by NikNat's flashy play that they can't see past it to the fact that he simply isn't that damaging. Same thing with his AA last year. He might get there, but he hasn't done it yet.

    Incidentally, well done Cale on having a better game. If he keeps this up they might just keep him.

    I always thought Cale could play, and was sad to see him go, but we're not the lost dogs home. He had enough time on the list without doing much, and it was time to go. So be it if someone can get something from him we'd never had got.

    As for nicnat: AA last year - ha. Give him my skin color and my hair and he'd have as many bog's and aa's as I do. He can jump and if he gets within 3 feet of the ball he'll destroy you, but getting him in that 3 feet zone... Can that be taught?

    • 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.
