    Ex North players to Melbourne. Stephen Icke and Brian Wilson were pretty decent. If Brown comes close to them it will be good.

    You forgot PEDDDDOOOO!!

    Remind me again. Why were the club trying to push Mahoney out the door? I'm not sure how he goes the other 51 weeks of the year but his work during trade week has been faultless.

    Yes there is another one but he is not in the class of Icke or Wilson.

    Definately a quality forward and the highlights show he is more than a player who leads and marks the ball but a contested beast.

    Not to mention Alan Jarrott, Shane Zantuck (via South Melb), Brent Crosswell and to a far lesser extent Xavier Tanner.

    [censored] Josh Mahoney! We've been bent over again! Why didn't this deal get done three weeks ago? 

    Yes reading all those apology posts is amazing.

    Memories are short, next season the same naysayers will repeat their doubts

    How good does the MFC polo look? Impressive young man is Ben. Look forward to watching him run around in the red and blue.

    While I was hoping we'd land some outside speed and class, I'm stoked to land BBB - especially when prior to the trade period I would have thought he would be worth at least a first round pick.

     

    I think having a proven goal kicker at the club will be enormous - great for the development of Weid and Jacko and will be good practice for our defenders who increasingly have to deal with forwards of around 200cm.

    So who's moaning and groaning about getting BB into the MFC?

    Not me. He's exactly what is needed for the next few years. 

    Straightens up our forward line immediately. 

    Let chaos reign on either side.

    Did we get Martin Pike from North or was it the other way around?

    I think he was at Fitzroy, then Melbourne, then North and then Brisbane.

    Got the deal done and nailed it. Hopefully the worst is behind him and he kicks his bags again.

    • 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.
