Is our problem predominantly skill-based or structure-based?

I think structure, which eventually, once confidence is lost, leads to skill.

    We're bad but umpires are the main ones controlling momentum atm.

    Essendon a 6-7 goal better team atm.

    Well that wasn’t a free either so there’s the leveller I guess.

    In that last kick into defense why was jones standing 15m in front of the mark in no mans land!  Not pushing back deeper to defend!

    Of course this us the week the bombers start well. They have done nothing for the 1st 2 weeks. Come on Melbourne 


    [censored] these cheating umpires

    They find free men even when we've packed their 50. Unaccountable footy

    They've had 7 scoring shots kicking against a 5-6 goal breeze.

    This is going to be a 10 goal loss.

    Our backline stinks.


    What the hell is going on with our defence? It’s way too easy!

    Poor defending by Hibberd! He has been rubbish!! On par with Bernie Vince of last year.

     

    Pure guts there Nev.

    • 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.

      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.
