Don’t worry Goodwin has 4 more years to not fix anything. 

Seems like we get beaten exactly the same way every time by Collingwood.

Wonder what our theory is with allowing to happen every time? Perhaps we are trying to bore them to death the pounce while they are not paying attention.

    Viney being held long before he takes possession, he needs to learn to tap it on rather than take the ball sometimes. He'd have 3 or 4 free kicks already.

    we can still win this. too many poor handballs and missed marks. Hopefully our backline can settle down. some of these have not played together for a while so may take some time to sort themselves out. go dees

    The people critical of vineys leadership and bad disposal the same calling for Gawn to be captain he started  the chain of handball clangers with a 1 metre handball miss at the first clearance 

    Not a reasonable argument based on one piece of play. Viney is a 1960s sort of Captain, head down barrel in push forward at all costs. No head for the game. A bad influence on our style of play.

    You did see the Neeld period right?

    Yes I did, back then we never had possession to display a skill error?

    Good vision Petracca. Keep it up.


    Yep, lost patience with Spargo, at this moment at least.

    Back to Casey, you'll get there mate, just keep at it

    A 2nd year 19 year old is currently tearing our defence to shreds

    there... Tracca is a midfielder.!

    He leans forward to kick, when on the run to kick long.

    • 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.
