    It's really interesting how well the two sports compliment each other, a lot of people seem to be very naturally talented and able to play multiple sports at a very high level but AFL and basketball go well together

    Gus is ok, as per interview on club website, just getting it done in the first week, was very smooth when they were doing the bring out and back in drills

    Article in this morning's SHun had the additional comment from Angus that he was trying to keep his head out of drills. An understandable stance but problematic for him? Any evidence in training so far? Article also elaborated on his training with neighbour Jonesy; that training, and keeping up, with super-trainer Jonesy would drag him to higher levels of endurance. So, ditto, any evidence in training so far?

    Impressive recovery by Mitch K, seven months from his injury.

    I add my thanks to Demonland's eyes, ears and keyboards at Gosch's.

    It is a running joke amongst the squad about the size of Angus' head, he has even joked to me about it, he had his tongue firmly in cheek

    Just really unlucky last year, once the realstuff starts, he like the rest will have his head over the ball

    Angus was very good on Friday, aerobic fitness definitely up

    I asked Macca for an early tip for a great year, answer Brayshaw

    Just with Chaplin being 'offensive coordinator' whatever the hell that is, and not sure exactly what role Rooke will have, as far as I know it is Rawlings backs, Mattews midfield and McPherson forwards, the rest development   will have to see when whole squad is back

    Sorry Beelzebub this is answer to your post, more daughter training on smartphone required

    • 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.
