Where's Jayden Hunt?? Hasn't touched the ball for 3 weeks now

In the backline for some unknown reason when he was doing well up forward. Meantime Hore is in the VFL.

    The problems with this club run so so deep. We have a name, a logo and a jumper, but we don't actually stand for anything.

    Some things you can allow for, forgive and understand, but the lack of fight when things are tough and belief in each other (not just talking about the players btw) are all just emblematic of an organization that exists just to survive, not to succeed.

    I believe that can only be changed by leadership club-wide. The closest we've had to a ruthless, wants-to-win leader has been PJ. Goodwin has become a PR artist, Bartlett just wants the "me time", Pert is invisible and our co-captains aren't directional leaders and are so limited as footballers that they struggle to lead by example anyway.

    Wasn't expecting a win today of course, but the way we have just wandered through this year says a lot about who we really are.

    Lever is having a stinker. Needs a pre season to get himself right.

    Can’t have a player who can intercept to come in and impact 2 first rounder Levers opportunities.


     McCartney words....This playing group is probably at a third of its development … but a lot of the initial hard work has been done,” he said.

    “The growth and development in this club over the past four or five years has been extraordinary.”

    so extraordinary that Pies keep scoring from our dumb mistakes, poor skill errors..

    Collingwood supporters standing near me love fritsch. they cant work out why we hit the flank every tine we go mark across half forward. we wait for them to flood. this season is a carbon copy of 2003.

    hunt seems to be running around like a headless chook never actually impacting the contest

    Funnily enough i thought we were a sneaky chance today. Good judge.

    It’s just horrific how bad we are when the ball is turned over 

    Collywobbles are playing with us. 

     

    Embarrassing stuff. Most embarrassing is the coaching and match ups.

    And just a rookie!   What does that tell you about our leaders.  Both should be de-frocked and a new leader (Gawn) in place for 2020.  May as VC.

    Surely we are just trying to raise value of some players in hope to get a 3rd rounder in a trade Omac, Hunt, Hibberd ect. We are surely taking the [censored] playing them otherwise.

    Jake Lever should ask for a pay cut. Miocek is only on half his salary and giving him a bath.

    • 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.
