Good day for the club. 

Players who are being rotated still get a run against some AFL standard players and it looks like our guys got through unscathed. 

Great result.

    Mrs W and I are booked into the Miami Hotel in Nth Melb for that Friday. Easy walk down to Arden St and back. Although coming back we will have to stop in at the Three Crowns Hotel for a burger and a couple of beers.

     

    5 Star Hotel with Limousine transport to the gate?

    Style indeed :)

    Relax mate. AFL side vs a VFL side. They should've won by more.

    I hope the Bombers clean up after themselves when they leave today. Be careful anyone heading to Casey tomorrow. Maybe don't wear thongs just in case.

    This is similar to one of my favorite sledges to annoying and vocal opposition fans at games where we are getting beaten: 

    'Your team is rubbish - a half decent team would have beaten us by twice as much'

    Thanks for that. I just rescued the season's ticket as it was starting to melt.

    Fake News with no mention that it was basically our VFL side. 

     

    No doubt the comments will be coming, especially after Pert released our bold plan during the week.  The nuffs will be out in force.

    "Honestly recon lav could be our version of degoey if he gets an absolute clean run at it.

    Would love for this to be the year of parish mcgrath lang and lav"

    The drug head supporters read a lot into this game. Just took the above quote from Bomberblitz. 

    (This guy  also won the  spelling bee)

    FMD!!!

    I left 1/2 way through the last. What a mismatch.

    I thought Jordan and Bedford were our best Dee players at least until 1/2 time. I don't even know what number Rivers is?

    Hunt, Baker and Wagner going through the paces which is as kind as you can get. Hore was reasonable today as well. Bradke played a reasonable game as well.

    Saw the same problems as last year. Poor kicking to position and too many handballs off target. It is a practice match so I won't be throwing my ham at the fridge. 

    On a positive note Essendon supporters are as ugly as Richmond. 

    The ganggangs were making plenty of noise in the last quarter.

    Hardly a surprise when there were barely any MFC players in the game,and of the ones that were, at least half have no AFL experience. Save your ham for tomorrow if it happens then.

    Any Essendrug  Teeth ? left in the Turf

    What was the point of that game if they turn up with 2 sides?

    Yes it is a Hit out, but playing young fatigued players against a fresh side after Half Time is a risky card to play.

    Yeah he played okay. None of our players looked likely just yet for AFL.

    Other than the players who have played a senior game, Bedford looked the closest from today, but still only 1-2 games this year.

    Any idea of how many players being used against Adelaide tomorrow?

    • 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.
