    Jeffrey for mine.

    Especially in a team of champs.  Would keep his head straight.

     

    Both had their weak points,  Jeff could lose focus & go MIA ,  Yze could lose desire, from time to time.

    Yze for me....

    14 years opposed to 7 years & with greater consistency over a longer period of time.

    The wiz only because he was a reason to go to watch football.

    Yze was such a reliable presence once you were there   Both deserved games without doubt

    as it's favourite as well as best  I will go for Yze simply because he was a one club player.

    Loved watching the Wiz though.

    Who had most good years? Id say the Wizard. The ooze was great but had lots of quiet games. The Wiz was just something else.

    Just watched today the 2000 PF. Can't go past Farmer. He wasn't called the wizard for nothing.

    Yze to repechage.

    Farmer for me.

    Farmer was the more enjoyable player to watch of the two but his voluntary departure at the end of 2001 really hurt - considering  it was’t long after his amazing 75 odd goal season in 2000.

     Yze was an absolute class act, had one of the best left foots in the league and polled 17 Brownlow votes in 2002. He gave us 14 seasons of excellence from the wing and half forward flank and thus gets my vote.

    • 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.

      It's Game Day and Clarry's 200th game and for anyone who hates Carlton as much as I do this is our Grand Final. Go Dees.

    • 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.
