    Correct call re: Harmes.

    Apart from the easy wins over the QLD sides, his form has been terrible. Although he was excellent in our first meeting with the Pies.

    He was on standby if Viney did not come up.

    Went to training today, with the lad. Feeling the love -  a few things in particular struck me:

     - Skills have improved considerably over the past year or so: much quicker and more accurate.

     - There is a fantastic camaraderie amongst this group - they seem incredibly tight.

     - Clayton Oliver is a beast - silky smooth and tough as they come. He could be one of the most inspired signings for years.

     - Jack Watts looks more and more assured and self-confident. He's clearly a leader amongst the group.

     - So glad to have Bernardo Vincenzo (as he's known in our house) at the MFC. The new smiling assassin.

     - Always impressed at the interraction between players and supporters at our club. Christian Petracca was straight over to the kids after the training session, signing shirts and high fiving.

     

    Noticed that Dunny seemed a bit on the outer - running laps by himself, but not in the buzz of things.

    Thanks all those Demonlanders for coming down to training despite what was going to be a wet and blustery day. We made a nice amount of money which will go to the Demon Army to continue their great work - hopefully some more "heads". Great to see so many kids there.

    Yes Nev was swamped but not the last to leave - H was still doing laps. Very funny listening to Watts and Dawes sledge Petracca. Fantastic camaraderie

    And thanks to you and the other unsung members of the Demon Army who man the sausage sizzles at training and the telephones on Tuesday nights.

    Yes he can! This one curled straight through the high diddle diddle.  In fact I didn't see the Hulk miss a shot from about 6 attempts from various angles and distance ...let's hope that form continues into QB

    "Any attempt to put Tracc of his kick", says Dawesy (bit of revenge from Tracc's earlier attempts to do same!) ...

    • 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.
