Now that we have seen both Georgiou and King in action last Friday evening, does anybody who voted for Jetta want to reconsider their vote [or does anybody else want to add a vote]?

    As far as I am aware there is no rush at all.

    So surely we should just wait and see if / when / who is injured and tailor the promotion accordingly.

    Georgiou was great against Richmond and if he plays another good game against Geelong then I think there's a strong chance he'll be upgraded and line up in our round 1 side.

    Garland may not be right for round 1 either which only increases Georgiou's chances of playing round 1.

    Georgiou was good last Friday and he'll probably get the nod, but it would have been an eye opener for young King and he didn't disgrace himself. In fact I thought he looked quite composed when he got his hands on the footy.

    It will be interesting to see if our other rookies get a run over the rest of the preseason and how they go before making any judgements even if AG did look ok first up.

    King = nowhere near ready physically

    Harmes = promising, but absolutely inexperienced. Casey is his go.

    Jetta = a possibility, but has had plenty of opportunity without sealing a spot. Casey again.

    Georgiou = what he showed Friday he's been showing for two years in SANFL. Experience, maturity, decision making.

    This is a no-brainer.

    I thought Georgio was better than Strauss off half back.

    Really shut down his man. Strauss may be able to kick the ball but he is pretty ordinary one on one.

    To me he showed enough in one practice game to warrant a promotion.

    He really has put the heat on Dunn, Strauss & Clisby to perform.

    What he said.

    Dunn played well he is safe, not so sure with strauss or clisby when garland is right to go

    • 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.
