Sounds like the only change we will make might be a mid in for a half forward (eg. Tyson for Hannan).  Rightly, Vanders is still a few weeks away, but clearly they still rate him and think he can have an impact for our side going forward.

Can't wait for the game on Saturday night!

    WTF does this even mean " Goodwin: As a club, we’re starting to expose ourselves to these situations. "

     

    He is saying pragmatically, the more exposure to 'finals' pressure games the better we get at them... and that is only good for the playing list to 'learn' how to play and experience it directly. That's WTF he meant by that.

    Staggering that Goodwin would use words in a press conference. What was he thinking.

    I'm staggered that we need to have the same conversation on this topic every week.

    I heard he is going to mime the presser next week.

    Give the script to Marcel Marceau. That'll be entertaining

    Sick of the these bloody words. Every press conference he just keeps talking. 

    If he doesn't express his views via interpretive dance next week then I say we look for a new coach.

    Haha! I’ve always been a hater of Barrett, I reckoned he’s mellowed this year and has been quite positive on Dees for a change!

    Interpretive dance would work.

    lighten up!  He might hate it as much as you do.  It is part of the job.  If he chooses to use ‘words’ to say as little as possible, then I’m ok with that provided they win.

    I wood say that means, we as a group are starting to actively seek/desire the bigger challenges:  to take them head on:   instead being a bit sheepish about the bigger power clubs.

     

    We are starting to lose the mental hangover; after being a beaten down Club.  And Goody is right. 

    We won't lay down any more, with this current culture building within the Mf club;  at the moment.

    The words are not for the players; they are for the supporters and interested people. even opponents.

    It's the players who are starting     to set the tone on-field,,, following all the coaches and assistant coaches since Roosy.

    • 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.
