GAMEDAY - Round 17

Featured Replies

Frost basher is out. He being far from our worst and at least making a contest. 

Sheesh, some people need their one eye attended to. 

 

There needs to be more intent. Take the first option, back yourself. Theres too much give it to the other guy and let him deal with the problem attitude.

You guys are unbelievable. We must be doing a few good things, please

It’s just the usual frustrating shyte, amplified a little.

It's sad coming here to [Demonland] and watching our [posters] serve up crap, cmon [boys and girls] lift!


It's really simple.

We have too many players who aren't good enough.

(Also a few who aren't quick enough.)

You mean like Lewis was pilloried for doing last week?

Yep.

Without getting into a discussion of that, the difference here is that we are doing it at stoppages, which is causing our problems.

I just dont understand the lack of intensity or pressure.

 

No excuse.

Haven't had intensity since pre QB and haven't had pressure all year. 

As someone said above this side is running on pure talent (from some) and getting sweet F all from it's coaches.

Frost has the same shortcomings as 3 years ago. Hannan should not have played. JKH deserved a game based on vfl form but won't play again.

haha yes this.  Anyone who thinks Tyson would fix this is definitely on the spectrum. 

Maybe when the AFL decrees that handballs to feet are worth points we'll bring back Tyson.

The trubble is buzzy,  Hannan adds nothing or hasnt so far and we are losing stoppage clearances badly.  I can only assume they are getting half their goals from those and the other from our dumbass turnovers.  T-Mac, Lewis and Frosty the obvious ones.

They have 11 rookies to our 6.  We should spiflicate them!

Dogs have one of the worst 3rd quarter records in the comp.

 

Let see how much we want it...

I’ve only seen the second quarter, but my take is that dogs are getting repeat inside 50s due to poor decisions and kicking. There was a point where it looked like we were breaking the game open but we let them back in and it gave them confidence. 

The game has had a lot of ebs and flows, we need to make the most of the time we’re on top.

I will take a 1 point win today Steve, don’t care how ugly. 

Why are players continually allowed to drop the ball? Does my head in.

Conversely I think we have one of the best.


Salem perfect tackle, play on. 

Hibbered tackled, holding the ball. 

Umpires lifting for the Dogs.

Only reason we aren't behind is they haven't converted. Did you watch the Saints game? Its pretty much Verbatim.


Your goal lewis you [censored] [censored]!

I just can’t believe our lack of defensive pressure 

We won’t win at the G with this zone; it leaves too much space open wide on the wings and waiting for transitional ball movement 

Been tha same for over 12 months

Dogs have 11 of their best 22 out apparently. But yes, 1 pt win would do.

We are playing terrible today 

Getting close to turning off, yet again.

Not good enough.

  • 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.
