Every year at about this time the Wizards and Wised gather in their dens . They gaze at wondrous scribblings and seek the learnings from the 'mystics'

Tea leaves are read, stones and runes rolled and pondered. And the game commences.

Initially it resembles are strange version of the local doowop-do . Odd pairings chat each other up, all promising the world . Some go home from the dance with little to talk of , others come away legends of the dance !!

So here I offer the chance to predict our outcome and the relative results for the others.

Embrace the canival :

    Given that Bugg and Melksham sound like they're just about locked in and it looks like Howe and Toumpas will both leave, I think we will see at least four trades.

    Not convinced we'll land a big fish, but would be happy enough to see us enter the draft with a high pick. I'd also like to see us secure a decent forward that's ready to go in round one as a foil for Hogan.

    This trade period is absolutely huge for our goal of making finals in 2016. I'm both excited and nervous at the same time.

    And I still think Watts could end up at Sydney.

    My mate who follows the Swans version of Demonland keeps reading that he might be off to Sydney. Daniel Robinson from Sydney was mentioned, most likely just speculation but as we found out with Trengove last year anything is possible.

    Anything is possible but I would be surprised if Watts is not at Melbourne next year especially if Howe goes.

    • 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.
