I don't know what I feel. I really don't. I go from calm and relaxed to worried and nervous in a couple of minutes and back again. But win or lose we are a top 4 side (or better), and I don't see that changing for many years. Most of our best are still kids, and will only get better.

    I just don't know what to feel about today. I remember the Northey and Daniher years and losing a prelim is hell.

    Last nights game hasnt helped my anxiety and optimism for  today!!

    Could we produce one out of the box like that - 

    Will the eagles turn it on -

    Can we win on grand final day-

    Unreal that if we do get up both gf teams didnt play a final last year - this is the thought that has me hopefull of todays result .

    The terror you inspire and the pride of your heart have deceived you, you who live in the cleft of the rocks, who occupy the heights of the hill.Though you build your nests high as the eagle's, from there I will bring you down.

    Isn't that the book that's full of stories about casting out Demons.

    Problem is with Collingwood, even if we win, the media will be all over them. It will be the grand final Collingwood lost.

    Look at 2002. Hardly any photos of Brisbane’s victory. Just pages and pages of Malthouse and Buckley in tears.

     

    You're right, it will make it extra sweet

    Nothing like a bit of good old fashioned smiting. Bring it back.

    I can imagine a huge chant from the MCG members as we take the lead against Collingwood in the GF.

    SMITE, SMITE, SMITE, SMITE, ...... pause for small portion of King Island Blue with Quince paste..... SMITE, SMITE, SMITE. SMITE.

    I’m just out of the CBD in Mt Hawthorn and don’t really venture into the CBD except for work. A very short Uber or stroll into Leederville you have some good places for brekky and coffee.

    Last night's game did nothing for me. Would feel a lot better knowing if we lost the winner was playing Freo or something.

    Cracking day in the West! 

    The Dees will light up Optus and send Eagles feathers flying! I believe...

    Go for the jugular Dees! ??


    Just meditated for a few minutes. Suprisingly alot more calm relaxed now. Try it. We got this.

    If given the choice, would you rather lose today or next week?

     

    Next week. Not ready for this to end yet. Experiencing the big dance even if we lose would be great for the players too.

    Yeah that would well and truly be terrible. Depends if we got belted or if it was a close game etc

    Playing Collingwood would be a marketers dream.

    Bring it on

    Today, easily.

    Would prefer someone other than us be responsible for losing to Collingwood in a Grand Final.

    • 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.
