    Think most would agree our 1st 22 looks the goods on paper, but on form we are playing like a bottom 4 side.

    I'd like Goodwin to change things up a bit, firstly I'd bring Harmes into the forward line maybe even out of the goal square ( remember him kicking 3 in a Quater against the saints a couple years back) he could rotate through the middle with Trac or Clarry when they need a spell. I'd then use Jones or Lockhart in defense.

    Like to know what everyone thinks? I feel Harmes was just starting to really flourish as a mid who could kick goals and we moved him back??

    The other really puzzling thing is why we are not playing the Weed as a leading full forward I see him turning into a Lloyd type if we can get the best out of him. I'd play him every week ask him to lead out at the ball instead of kicking it on his head in 3 v1s

    it seems to me that tomlinson is set to be our #2 ruck, especially with these shorter quarters and gawn's excellent fitness

    i am very, very interested to see how the forward line works going forward with that one tall and a host of mid-sizers and small

    pickett and bennell is potentially VERY exciting

    Preuss?     Does anyone actually rate him, especially as our starting ruckman after Gawn leaves?

    • 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.
