    Are we allowed to forfeit and save money on airfares etc?

    The way I see it, they owe us for giving them a soft training run in the PF, keeping them fresh enough to overrun the filth in the Granny

    Keilty, Omac, Jeffy and if we are gonna call a spade a spade Tracca and Gus deserve to be dropped.

    Pray for undermanned back to wall effort next week - same as Daniher era

                Morecambe

                Wise

                B. Hill

    then we could justify calling our team a bloody joke.

    So Lewis will definitely miss, yes? Who played well at casey today? 

    Preuss must come back in obviously someone needs to replace hibbard. So next week we are relying on Oscar and frosty to stop Kennedy & Daring? Great.

    Keilty most likely to go for Preuss. Omac should be but who replaces him. I’d keep Garlett in. He’s getting to the right spots, he’s just fumbling at the moment. He’ll find some touch. Trac was our most dangerous forward tonight. Won most if not all one on ones when the ball is on the ground. And gus, he’ll b right.

    Out: Hibbo, Keilty, Lewis (he re injured himself in the last)

    In: Preuss, ANB, whoever played well for Casey (didn’t watch the game as was out for mother’s day)  

    I pray Melksham will be fine, but it’s a short break and a long trip so I’m not holding my breath. 

    I assume Fritsch will go back to defense to cover Hibbo. Preuss direct replacement for Keilty.

    Gus hasn’t played this bad since 2017. Deserves another week given we have players in the side who haven’t played well since 1978 and still manage to get games.

    Out: Hibberd, maybe Melk, Lewis, Garlett, Keilty. 

    In: Preuss (Keilty), T Smith (Melk), ANB (Jeff), Jordon (Hibberd), C Wagner (Lewis).

    My guess is they keep Lewis and Garlett despite the damage they must be doing to team culture with continued weak efforts.

    Simply is not going to happen, the coaching panel do not react in the same way as  supporters, and thankfully they don't

    Hibberd, Melksham and Lewis are almost certain to miss.  You would think Kielty is out in favour of Preuss as well. 

    Given West Coasts tall forwards, I wonder if we might see Petty come back in.  He was emergency today and has been playing well. 

    Given Spargo was sitting out today as an emergency as well, I suspect he comes in.  That leaves one. 

    ANB seems likely as the player with runs on the board, but I would really like to see them take a risk and give Baker a shot.  He's more risk/reward.  He can hit the scoreboard, but won't do the grinding work and assists that ANB provides.

    What you mean they don't put the beer down and dribble [censored] all over their keyboards

    Awful game, both sides trying not to lose, but we got the 4 points

    Coaches will review and make changes if necessary

    We have few players to come in, but will likely need to find replacement for Hibberd, Melksham, and Lewis at a minimum 

    We need Preuss in, obviously, but with our injuries will Keilty be dropped for him?

    I’ll guess...

    IN: Preuss, ANB, Baker, C Wagner
    OUT: Kielty, Hibberd, Melksham, Lewis

    As I recall, nobody played well in 1978 ?

    • 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.
