I think it’s going to be closer than what the odds suggest.

What’s the vibe like at the ground?

    Hore is a pretty handy mature aged intercept marking defender , will give us good coverage for the likes of Lever who is still 5 weeks away.

    I know that's his reputation, but it didn't stand out to me that much in his JLT performances to me.

    This will cost the teams with selfish players. Teams with team orientated players will benefit. 

    Commentators on Thursday and Friday were noting that players on the ground were ignoring the bench to stay on the ground. I'm not sure if this was 100% accurate but if so it's not great from those individuals. 

    I wouldn’t call it selfish, if a player is involved with the play on the ground he isn’t going to pull out and run off the ground. 

    It’s just a reminder of what our game was like before Sheedy bought in his rotations in the early 90’s

    All players must go hard when it is their turn. 

    The Coach will now be very careful who he pulls to the bench late in every quarter, because there is a very high chance that they won’t get back on again

    Remember when players took a 10 minute “rest” in the forward pocket...?


    It’s a beautiful day at the G!

    Beer’s good. Perving excellent 

    And .... surprise surprise... the footy record is still $5.  .... including a free bag of nuts!!

    LG!’

    for when players don't follow coaches instructions.  The coach could have a big red button in the coaches box they could hit - would make great TV!

    Roy and HG talked about it during the 2000 Olympics

    When horses were walking sideways during the dressage events, it was all to do with how much voltage and current was being pumped into their nervous system!!

    I reckon that old Barassi would have loved an electric shock button.  Might have saved his blood pressure and a few phone head pieces.

    Think we might struggle to hit 40,000?

    Last time we played 'em at the 'G we got just over 27k there.  Hopefully we can do a little better this time around.  It is Port after all though, that's always going to keep the numbers down a little.

    In Bali for this one, surrounded by bogans with Bintang in hand at 10.30am, so really no different from when I’m in the MCC.

    Cmon Demons!

    • 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.
