    Further to that the Carlton Website articles list that Carlton's reserves kicked 6 goals so TMac could have kicked 7.

    Highlights and a player-by-player review will be available on carltonfc.com.au early in the week.

    GOALS: De Koning 2, Fisher, O’Dwyer, Owies, Philp

     

    3.18 mins of blues 'highlights' for the self flagellators among us.

    It features just two kicks from  player in a Melbourne jumper. Importantly though it is representative. 50% DE and 50% kicked the our forwards disadvantage.

    Fun times

    On my reading of Richo's report there might be nine changes! It's like everyone who played for us deserved to be picked in the seniors next week. (I presume the players get real feedback, not the confected garbage we're given. To be fair, I'm not sure what else Richo could actually say publicly about individual performances, though.)

    Don't forget it was only against the Blue's 2nds, which would be very very weak, so every chance our guys looked good, hopefully Richo played favourites and had our guys where he wanted them.

    Still, I suppose it's better than dancing with your sister!

    Remember when I think it was Brett Allison that used to give real player performance reviews.

    He got canned for doing it.

    I thought it was great.

    • 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.
