Training - Monday 23rd March, 2015

Featured Replies

Therein lies the problem - we have what you could describe as a few good footballers. Then we have a whole lot of could be, should be and would be footballers. Has Kent shown that he could be a more than handy footballer ? Absolutely - but at this stage he hasn't done it on a regular week in week out basis. I am far from writing him off. I just am waiting for the day that all these footballers who could be really good actually deliver on the promise.

Agree nutbean.

We have a lot of average players.

If they cannot be moved to good players then they will need to be replaced.

Easy to say but a bit harder to achieve.

There will always be average players amongst the 40 but he have a pile of them at present.

The ratio is way out of whack.

 

This is a training thread from two days ago - it's dead. Let it die. Let it find peace.

There is no information from that training remotely relevant or important enough to warrant more internet space.

Let the thread go.

It's done.

Slipped off this mortal coil etc?

Basically when you strip it down to bare bones, this, in essence, is why we are sub-standard and have remained so for the previous 8 years.

  • 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.
