All spot on for me aside from mayyyyyybe this one being a little harsh. Not the most skilled, but on a day where we had no real intensity I thought he was the one player going full speed for the ball and full intent into tackles for the full 4 quarters. Not a player I rate very highly overall, but I've actually really liked the pressure and effort he's brought every time he's played. 7 tackles, 5 marks, 6 score involvements (despite playing all over the ground) and 24 pressure acts I reckon is not a bad return given where he sits on the list and how the rest of the team performed, including the co-captains leading him.

Spot on LN. At least he has a red hot go.

Joeboy just got back from north’s 102 point loss to Geelong in the VFL.

Apparently Tyson was - prolific but wasteful.

[censored] me. I’m glad I’m in North Queensland and only had Rugby to to concern myself with

i used to reckon rugby and soccer were [censored] but after following Melbourne for about 60 years I’m having a rethink

Plenty taking up the mantle ?‍♂️


I reckon "Oscar : Limited but tried" nearly amounts to a BOG

Baker : basics before party tricks

Wagner : Had redhot go. ( Potentially a Small defender (when Nev retires ) or a small fwd .....now  !!!

Petty : Looked likely a lot.

Dunkley::  extremely promising kid.

Viney : If you get the ball you do not get to take it home.

May : Nothing 15x 2km time trials will not fix.

  • 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.
