From what I’ve seen of the Dees this season we would fold under this pressure, and badly.

That’s what happened last season after we won 4 in a row. That kind of intense pressure seems alien to the way we play.

    What is it with the umpires.

    They've been instructed to just ball the ball up now and not take time telling players they're moving out backwards (has anyone ever seen an ump throw the ball up or bounce it and run forward).

    ...yet, they are law unto themselves and despite instructions still seem to what to tell players they're moving out the back.

    This type of thing has been going on for years now with any rule interpretation. They enforce it one week and by week 3 it's back where it was in the first place.

    No wonder the game is going backwards...

    The different interpretations from different umpires as well. Umpire 14 has paid incorrect disposal more than the other 3 umpires combined tonight.

    Bloody hell the umpires love Frankenstein

    Last three minutes of third Q

    - the first a dive that would make the Tiger “world best ever defender” Prancer look an honest man, followed by another real softie 

    Did you not see the stories last week about him being paid the most free kicks against in the entire league?

    Classic even ups...

    I struggle to get into viewing any game played at the SCG, the ground is just too small. 

    especially when so much of the camera work is close-up

    I see the Blues are saving themselves for the Pies next week.

    Carlton are more pathetic than I imagined. It brings back the memories of the dark days under Neeld.

    Wow. I wish these Bastards were this bad in the 70’s and 80’s

    enjoy it you thieving Scum...

  • Quote

    Enjoying Carlton going goalless for the first half against a team that’s younger and less experienced.

  • Quote

    Wow I actually gave Carlton a chance today, but this is just horrible. There could be a mass walk out at half time. This was a team that beat essenscum who have beaten teams like geelong and gws at there home ground. 

    Well the loser out of the suns and saints could escape scrutiny because I think next week the focus will be on Carlton.

    • 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.
