The last time we beat 'em

Featured Replies

Posted

After all the negativity on here, and a few posts I read on other threads, I was thinking it might be time for a bit of positivity. Considering our recent situation, being bashed from pillar to post, maybe we need to look back, week to week, to find some inspiration. Flip side of the coin is we might be reading/viewing the same stuff every time we play certain teams, but then there will always be the Essendons, who seem to provide new footage whenever we play them. (Tossed around the word '[censored]' then, but decided against it)

So here we go, Round 20, 2005. The last time we beat Geelong. (last 30 mins)

Some take-outs for me: Moloney was more than just a 'get ball and bomb long' player; Davey a superstar, deserved premierships; get Howe some Robbo footage; courage (Whelan etc - even Godfrey), that's the missing link! Fringe players IE Bell, Reid (check out the deliberate OOB FK, not much has changed with the maggots) you could trust to take a mark, or go when it's their turn; the natives faces when they thought they were in trouble (priceless)

Different team every week, different experiences, away you go....

 

Cool, another thread about Geelong........Yeah me too glory days indeed, there have been a few, but it feels like its time to revisit this with a win down at Catpark.

  • 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.
