yep, if we are really making players earn spots Dawes comes back through the VFL. Might be good for him anyway to both regain some form and bag a few goals. Cant be good for the confidence being a forward and not having much of a scoreboard presence.

    I saw him hand out a few big hits. Very effective and always competitive and dangerous.

    Pedersen > Dawes

    After today

    Pedders >>> Dawes (and I have been a massive Dawes wrap.. .)

    PEDOLANKO!!

    Should stay in for the rest of the year. Him and Hogan worked impressively today.

    Have to agree. All that we wanted of Chris Dawes has been wasted. Cam Pedersen has overtaken him now. Time to move on and either trafe/draft for another KPF.

    My girlfriend came with me to watch the girls game as she plays too, turned to me and asked who number 21 was. Then every time he got the ball she called out his name and said how good of a player he was.

    Such a good mark. Such safe hands

    We've called him The Fridge for a couple of seasons now because his physical impact in contests. He is now worth his weight in gold for the inspiration, goal return & marking efficiency. We are re-christening him The Golden Fridge!!

    Hopefully Roos makes Dawes earn his spot back. Honestly cant see Pedo losing his spot

    Cam [Pedersen] has a crack unlike a lot of his team mates

    He isn't the most skilled but gives his all

    Keep him in the side...

    Some on here have been saying exactly that for some time Sir

    Well done, Cam. Keep stringing these impressive performances together. That's two in a row. Imagine another tall KPF next to Hogan and Pedo and another quicl crumber like Jeffy. I wonder if Kent can play that role?

    Can't see who they would drop for Dawes.

    Pederson , Hogan and Howe are better Marks of the ball and more dangerous.

    Dawes seems to work hard but doesn't seem to get a result.

    Hope they don't sacrifice Fitzy for him as he was terrific tonight down back.

    The reality for Dawes is he has to earn his spot back or as an injury fill in. It would be a crime to drop Fitzy after his game today.

    Fitzy definitely worth persevering with. Guys like Pedo and Fitzy have been sacrificed for Jamar, Dawes and Watts for too long, regardless of position

    Play all 3, Can't see the problem with 3 solid talls in the forward line

    Except Dawes is not solid.

    what are you doin', don't call him that. next he'll get a big head & will get dropped, never to get another test in his career. ;)

    Dawes doesn't come back for mine. Frost is ahead of him and now Peders is...

    It's not silly to say play all 3. With the skills Hogan has up the ground and with Pedersen back up rucking it can happen for sure.

    But it should be play all 3 if they are in form.

    I watched Pedersen play for Casey v Coll earlier in the year. He was lagging to get to contests, not holding marks and not at all looking dangerous. He's been made to work for his spot and has found form and is now covering the ground and holding his marks.

    Dawes can go back to Casey, get fit and get his confidence back. Then if Hogan needs another rest it can happen. Or if Pedersen drops off they can make the swap. Or as I said at the start we can pay all 3.

    Hogan is certainly on good money. Dawes is on good money. Pedersen was wanted by Coll I think when he left North. I bet he's on a fair pay packet as well. They are key forwards. Only so many good ones to go around 18 teams. So let's stop with the crap about who makes what and how good a 'value' they are. If the bust their guts playing as a hard at it key forwards they will earn their money.

    • 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.
