Wins = Premierships

That is the Big Picture

Yes but they don't just happen because we say we want a winning culture, it happens because we play the right way as a team. Just wanting it won't make it happen

I have never said just want. I want them to DO IT. 

Not next year, i want them to do it over the next 10 weeks. 

Jobs are on the line.

We all want them to go out and just do it and win each week, but I've been talking about how we should be setting up to maximise the chance of wins in the long term. For instance should we be playing Jordy Lewis each game because he gives us a better chance of winning than say Lockhart/hore or do we give those guys a run and hope they become very important players for the future. We're not in a position to 'play the kids' because we're a young team anyway but looking at integrating personnel so they play better together for the future should hold a lot of weight.

 

Would like to hear what his thoughts are of our fitness conditioning coaches , have the injuries been managed correctly , players coming back too soon?  Our preseason disaster ...

good interview.  puts the acid on T Mac to stand up.  Tom is a proud man so hopefully he does something

I really like the reshuffle of the coaches and not waiting until the end of the year to make these changes.

Go Demons, give us something to cheer!

I'm sure he's had the acid put on him before this behind closed doors but it begs the question....

Why is Tom not at Casey?

Hinkley's sent Westoff back to the 2's and he's got a lot more credits than Tom.

Pyke had Jenkins in the SANFL for 5 weeks.

Is Goody too much of a players man? does he need to harden up? does Tom deserve his spot?

Who would you replace him with?

Surely, surely, not Preuss???

Goodwin really does talk a lot of club spin, it’s actually sickening, I’m still not convinced he is a good game day coach, but at least he says nice things. Pressure is on, and you can see that.

Play to win. Pick the best players in form. 

Building a winning culture will take care of the future. 

If Lewis is in form pick him

Just as well it wasn't up to me 'jumbo'...

I couldn't be happier to see Tommy turn his game around today.

In his own words made mistakes early but then things started working for him...

In my words he got to a lot more balls, was running more and working harder and it finally paid off.

Well done Tommy...well done Goody for putting the acid on him.

  • 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.
