Danger milked that for all its worth.

The Cat's know how to play the umpires to perfection. They know exactly where that line of infringing is and will hold our players back or slow the game down knowing the umps won't call the real soft stuff but when we do the same they milk it to make it cross the line so the umpires have to pay it

    Another goalless quarter. We’ve got seriously game style and structural issues. We’re years away from competing again unfortunately. Our forward line is rubbish, and our mids lack footy IQ and tidy disposal.

    This club was stuffed the day Roos left and anointed Goodwin. Absolutely appalling

     

    +1 CPs, +4 clearances, +5 inside 50s.

    But we're two goals behind.

    We know this is the style of play Goodwin wants. He speaks about wanting the ball to sit in our forward half.

    Geelong knows this too. As does every other side that we've played since the start of last year.

    We can't keep going like this.

    Oliver is so frustrating! Does anyone else think he just plays so smugly 

    Yep. Needs to adjust his attitude and pronto.

     

    North will be planning who they want with pick 1. May was a huge mistake, not to mention Lever. Overpaid duds.


    Yeah look, not much has changed since last year unfortunately. 

    Gave up 2 first round picks for a useless defender who just gets brushed aside so easily.

    Can’t handle the wet and windy conditions... oh wait

    That was almost a waste of effort. Intensity was there. But if Fritsch keeps dropping sitters, Kozzie misses from 15 metres and we lose on the outside it will be a long afternoon!

    Melksham is just jogging around.

    Has cost us 4 times. Pathetic so far.

    Why wasn’t Ablett given a 50 metre penalty for preventing the Melbourne player to pick up the ball after giving away the free?

    Same reason Danger gets a fifty when staging, and why Oliver is accused of flopping when he’s tackled without the ball.. gee-long

    Nothing wrong with the defensive effort. Lacking any dare and clean take aways, May this be the last game without a second tall and can our first one please find something that resembles form.

    platers wont change their habits ,goodwin wont change his,make a move or 2 you idiot

     

     

    Geelong always overposess the footy so the stats aren’t a surprise. 
     

    I thought we were okay just missed a couple of chances. We’re in this well and truly.

    Should have been the first dropped after the Carlton game as was stated many times here, sadly our coaching geniuses thought otherwise.

    • 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.
