The big question is...

Are these games on Tele?

Foxtel had them all last year iirc.

    I'm thrilled with two of those games.  We'll get a nice reality check from the Doggies, then a very winnable game to follow.  Not so happy about the WC game, but you can't have everything.

    Will this be the first time in the club's famous history that we get a pre-season win at Casey?

    No played the Saints there several years ago - got thrashed I seem to remember!

    We should beat the Dogs. They never play a full side in the pre-season thats why we won the last 2 and now with their much shorter preseason I would expect the same. However... I will be interested, given our new found depth, to see if we play a full side for either of the first two games. I'd like to see us go out with a "seconds" side for one of the games give all the best 15-30 type players a chance to earn a spot. Like do Gawny, Viney, Jones, Lewis, Tyson Tmac, Hogan etc all need to have 3 games? we know they are in the 22 why noy give them the first week off. It could be like a VFL grand final rematch :P.

    • 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.

      It's Game Day and Clarry's 200th game and for anyone who hates Carlton as much as I do this is our Grand Final. Go Dees.

    • 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.
