He is a big out but they've got plenty more to replace him.

    They can just choose from their plethora of first round picks to replace him. Won't have the same impact, but is easily cover-able by them compared to the rest of the comp.

    Exactly. They have insane depth and talent.

    Still reaping the rewards of the ridiculous concessions the AFL game them.  Sad part is they haven't even peaked yet.

    Most talented midfield in the league. They’ve got plenty of coverage available for him, though he’s a gun.

    GWS Giants

    PLAYER INJURY ESTIMATED RETURN
     Matt Flynn  Knee  TBC
     Tommy Sheridan   Calf  3-4 weeks
     Tim Taranto   Shoulder  4-5 months
     Callan Ward   Knee  4-6 weeks
    Updated: Tuesday, March 3

    Early prognosis

    Taranto will have reconstructive surgery this week and won't be seen until at least July in a massive blow for the Giants. Ward will miss probably the first month of the home and away season as he makes his way back from his ACL, while Sheridan's troublesome calf issues continue to hobble him. - Adam Curley

    Means one of Green, Ash, Hateley, Caldwell etc will get a game. Ridiculous depth.

    GWS are my tip for the flag. Nothing crazy about that.  We have two very tough games to start 2020. We could be 0-2 but don’t panic if we are. Eagles and Giants will probably be top 4 this year.

    Early prognosis

    All eyes will be on star defender Williams ahead of the Geelong clash, after he missed the Marsh Community Series. He's been training and should be fit to play, the Giants will just need to decide if he needs some more work on the track to make sure he's ready for full games at match intensity. - Adam Curley

    • 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.
