    To paraphrase: the article was posted at TEN.55, and games against Melbourne "of-TEN resembled a training drill."

    This comment was brought to you by Miss Quote, and the number TEN.

    There aren't that many senior players. I wonder if Grimes may be under the microscope.

    I'd suggest they will look at most, but I think Roosy will want to be very active in trade week, he knows it's vital this feels like a totally different side in 2015

    I reckon Howe is one they could consider putting on the table, would anyone on here do a trade of Howe for Tom Mitchell?

    I think he might be , but not singles out as such just I imagine Roos wants the 'elders' to take it up to the enemy a bit more.

    It's not that we lose but how we lose ( thats if we lose lol )

    It's interesting how Roos is ramping up the pressure. The warm and cuddly start to the season seems to be over. I think he has now got his head around the list and the cuts may go deep.

    And about time too, we have Grimes, our captain consistently making basic skill and judgement errors that cost the team, Garland hasn't really got going yet, i'm not sure of Howes position in the team

    Agree except for Howe. Think he has developed his game a lot this year and is no longer a 1 trick pony. Expect he will eventually go forward again with a more defensive mindset.

    Grimes and Garland have been very disappointing.

    Garland missed the the whole pre-season after Christmas. Him being in bad form isn't shocking.

    Tough year to be out of contract.

    Big Mitch is gone, Frawley will look to cash in elsewhere and I am sure the axe won't miss many uncontracted players. At this stage of the season anyone out of contract that hasn't put pen to paper probably wont be coming back.

    I can see the Demons being active again during trade season. A player who is not in Roos' plans will be offered at the trade table if under contract, so he can move forward with this list.

    I get the impression Roos patience is wearing rather thin with parts of our list.

    • 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.
