That Hawks team already belongs to a different era with far less pressure being applied to the contest - more space for the kicker and less need to take riskier options to clear the congestion.

All teams since the 90s have also looked to attack off half-back, and supporters of all teams since forever think that their team's skills are the worst. We rank ninth for turnovers (or seventh for the least turnovers) while Richmond rank as the fifth worst and Carlton the third best.

Meanwhile, we're one of the best teams for creating opposition turnovers, and are the highest scoring team in the league, due in part to prioritising players with contested skills over foot-skills. 

Are Carlton third best because they never have the ball?

What is their turnover to possession ratio?

    No wonder we can't follow instructions with that hand-writing. 

    It looks like a GP wrote it.

    Talls sparleus/sparticus . or is it another language for "talls: anyone got any ideas we can use?"

    Wizard att(ack): has anyone told Goodwin we don't have Farmer anymore?

    Or is it Wizard ANB? If so I think they're overestimated ANBs wizard-ness.

    Mrs Frankie - a GP, would take offense - she has much better handwriting than I do! 
    That would be an interesting list - best -> worst handwriting.

    Mrs Franke, the GP would be at one end, and I would be at the other... not a GP!

    • 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.
