Gutsy calls by Pyke to drop Eddie and Hinkley to drop Dixon.

Also a gutsy call a few weeks for Teague to drop McGovern for being unfit, not to return until he is.  Big call for a coach wanting to win every game.  Good on him for setting standards early.

Good examples of difficult calls to maintain the integrity of selection decisions and set behavioural standards; Walk-the-Talk.

The ever classy Betts:  “Yes a bit disappointed on being dropped,” Betts said.  “But at the same time super excited that this kid gets another run at AFL level, turn it on little brother.”

    I think I want the tigs to beat the pies. 

    If there can be some miracle performed so the suns can beat essendon this week that would be great, but it won't happen. 

    I reckon Carlton can beat the crows.

    Richmond looking unbeatable.

    2 very high quality talls and the resting ruck. Following that up with remarkable skill when the ball hits the deck.

    Tigers coming good at the right time of year, will be flag favourites after tonight if they weren’t already

    Is Buckley the Right Guy?

    Yeah, at least for another couple years.

    Injuries + loss of confidence = sound familiar?

    Collingwood board on Bigfooty is in meltdown atm.

    There is a huge disconnect between Grundy and their mids atm. They are quite literally struggling in the same areas we are.

    Yep, and with a game plan that is closest in style to ours of any team.

    But hold on, i thought the pies, cats, west coast slow, chip it around, cross to the fat side  and maintain possession model is unbeatable and  where the game is heading and Goody has failed to keep up with premiership winning trend in footy.

    I'm confused. Perhaps that's the not the case after all.

    Commentator watch:  Mr Ling was able to say ‘lowered the eyes’ three times in about 20 seconds.  A pumpkin that love the sounds that his farty breath makes.  Severn team are ‘boisterous briahhhn, creepy Bruce and special comments from the peanut brigade.

    Every time De Geoy goes near the ball he looks for a free kick. Arms flapping and head flying back

    I am very angry that Eddie has been allowed to stay in the Media unscathed, after his King Kong comments, twice...

    It really stinks

    “They’re a couple of good looking boys, Eddie’s kids” - Bruce going full creepy ped. 

    I didn’t year that but a couple of comments later were ...... well, quite creepy.

    Sad really.  Gone on far too long.  Was one of my favorites early on.

    • 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.
