We got Dunkley when we could have got Pickett? Bloody hell.

And so could possibly 16 other teams too. An inexact art / science is recruiting

    Pickett coming to a club that plays with no purpose would not have helped him.

    I wonder if Goody and Co were watching and thinking "we are no wear near this level"?

    Small Forwards, pace, foot skills and turnover pressure, is all he should be thinking about over the break and pre season.

    All we need is

    A home ground

    A dynamic president

    Recruiters with a vision

    A development program

    A skilled coach

    A club culture

    A dozen or so extra top line players.

    Sounds like the exact opposite to where we've been heading doesn't it

    Would have to have been one of the most boring GF's after quarter time.

    Sure they have a lot of talent, but GWS remain a cultureless franchise.

    Pickett wouldn't fit into Goodwin's "handball around aimlessly in circles until we turn it over" game plan.

    Just heading home after a thoroughly un entertaining game.  Tigers now with 12 premierships, equal with us.  The best team over the last 12 weeks won this day, deservedly so.  Regardless it was dullsville at the G and not representative of a great season. A pity for us neutrals.

    Hopefully the Storm can roll the Cronksters tonight...

    Saw our game in Perth in round 9. We put in a good show for over half the game but as you say when WC went up a gear it was all just too hard for us. We more already less gave up the season then and there,  That game summed up our whole shocker of a season.

    Might have helped if Goodwin reviewed the preliminary and gave them some direction.

    Many ways are learned through many years. Call it experience.

    Richmond finished last year exactly the same as we did. 

    It’s all just too hard, when it counts

    That Round 9 game was our best performance for the year. The peak. 

    collapsed after that

    It would take a dull brain to not see what it takes to win a flag and not compare where we are to where we need to get to. Each to there own though, ignorance and denial helps some sooth the pain.

    • 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.
