Are the Saints trying to emulate us?

Now I know that Melbourne has hardly been a role model for the other Clubs since the early 1960s, but I suspect that the reverse is true with the Saints. Firstly, they took over our relationship with the Sandringham Zebras, then they followed us to the bottom of the AFL ladder, and now they are training at Casey! I am surprised that Essendon FC beat them to securing the services of Neil Craig and Mark Neeld?

    They are also trying to pinch Elsternwick park as a training base from under our nose.

    The Sainters haven't learnt from our previous failings either....trying to re-build through the draft alone doesn't work. Yet that is the way they have gone, while losing the likes of Goddard and Dal Santo when they still had plenty to offer.

    Have cemented another wooden spoon in their trophy cabinet.

    I hope they do, then we won't the laughing stock of the league any more.

    They're certainly emulating our idiotic decision to turf out their list's experienced players en masse in favour of youth.

    Was disastrous for us. Could care less if it's similarly catastrophic for them.

    • 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.
