    Worrying first 5 minutes, strong final 10 minutes.

    From TV it looks like we've again set up well behind the ball. Their goal was from a turnover and one of their missed kicks was from Smith's run through the middle. Other than that, they're struggling to move the ball.

    We look good when it hits the deck in our forward 50 and we've got key players getting their hands on it. Petracca looks excellent. Hannan, Fritsch and Pickett all causing headaches for them.

    What is wrong with Fritsh Goal Kicking?

    He was very reliable when he first played...

    More accurate from 40+ when he must kick through the ball and not overthink i reckon SW.

    Under 40ish out he over thinks imo and tends to try and guide it through rather than kick through with momentum.  Leaning back a little?

    Burgoyne doing a lot of things he ‘never does’

    cant they just say he is playing a bad game?

    Can't they just say his opponents are doing better?

    Viney's aggression.
    Gawn's marking.
    Pickett's speed.
    Petracca's strength.
    Defensive pressure and workrate.

    Our onballers are all on. Brayshaw is butchering it though. 

    Gawn is murdering them in the ruck. If Oliver can tidy up a little we could really slaughter them in the centre clearances. Would make a big difference considering that we've locked them in their defensive 50 quite well.

    so correct

    We're +10 in CPs, +3 in contested marks, and we've had 8 tackles inside 50 to their 1.

    But it's 12 inside 50s to 4. They've scored 1.2 from their 4 inside 50s (75% scoring efficiency), we've scored 3.2 from our 12 (42%).


    Early days, but Jackson looking OK. A bit more at home at this level. 

    Just the 3 contested marks in one quarter from Gawn

    Needs to work on those closer shots

    We need him to kick 1-3 a week

     

    Good stuff Dees!

    Great to see Fritsch slot that late one after missing two easy shots.

    Hannan picking up where he left off last week with a great tackle and goal.

    Max monstrous at the moment. Three contested marks that quarter? 

    Trac is absolutely untouchable.

    • 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.
