Gee its very low scoring. Lets hope next week we have geelong at 4 goals during the 3rd quarter and we have dominated. Hawkins set shot he missed at the beginning of the 3rd he would have kicked that against us. 

Part of me wants the cats to win.

    I’m normally critical of most things the AFL do but I fully support their efforts to open up the game more and get less crowding around the ball.

    It's a one-game sample (last night's game wasn't overcrowded or over congested), it's humid (players have said this during breaks and they're clearly struggling to grip and mark the ball) and both sides are sending strong pressure.

    The game is opening up as we move into the third, too.

    eagles at $7 is great odds imo they won’t lose at home so should finish top 2 

    Yeah, not many teams beat the Eagles at home.

    Hold on a second...

    Would be better if they are zip and two and are two and zip.

    How good is it not to see a swarm of team runners on the ground zoning?

    Looks much more like footy is supose to look like.  With 6-6-6, all they need to do is further limit the number of interchange and it might actually be reconisable as Australian Rules Football.

    • 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.
