Yeah it’s too much. And if we lose next week do people here want to see a Collingwood v Hawthorn game that bad?

Yep, another awful thought. One of Collingwood or Hawthorn guaranteed to make the Grand Final if we were to lose. Get me a vomit bag!

Much funnier imagining West Coast being shat on by Richmond from a great height without the home-ground umpiring to get them home.

    Obviously. But there's no chance of a Prelim for Melbourne in Melbourne if the Pies can't get it done tonight. One week at a time applies here as well.

    It would be fitting to have a Prelim in Melbourne.

    Eagles will win from here, Pies have choked.

    imo eagles the better option here.

    we match up better with them and the thought of potentially losing to collingwood in the PF is enough to make me want to vomit. 

    I'd bank us to beat the eagles. wouldn't be very confident against Collingwood.

    Pretty much this. Just have to look at the respective matches this year. Our win against the Eagles at Optus was probably our second best win of the year (second only to last night). Queen's Birthday we were thoroughly towelled up. Can't underestimate the Pies at the G, they're bloody good.

    Anyway, next week first! Not much point speculating about week 3 unless we can roll the Hawks!

    All over.

    Was the gamble of bringing back 3 injured players just too big a gamble?

    Haven't yet seen a cross the the Eddie clan.

    We have beaten eagles the last two years and only lost by I think 6 the year before.  Should have confidence.  Pity I'll be in Japan and not in Perth when they play :(

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Carlton

      It's Game Day and Clarry's 200th game and for anyone who hates Carlton as much as I do this is our Grand Final. Go Dees.

    • 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.
