he was pantsed in that 2nd half

Rubbish biased commentary by supporters who want to see him fail. 
We put on zero pressure thru the middle. Our back line was under attack constantly and did so well. His opponent did very little. Less than Weideman. Did Andrews have a horrible game too?

 

Disgusting umpiring, matching our disposal. Bringing the ball back when we are running away to goal,  after goal umpire called it was a mark, was  disgusting. Holding the ball paid one way all night. Disgusting. Our kicking for goal and in general play pathetic.

    Just lacked a touch of polish. They are a damn good side. We were just a touch off in the second and didn’t take our chances. Learn from it an reset for Port.  

    And umpires did not help. Play on when we kick 12m. Mark when they kick 2m. 
    Holding the ball not called one way. Nor pushing in the back or chopping the arms.

    This would have to be the most frustrating team to follow. Brain fade after brain fade - its the only thing that we do consistently.

    Weideman needs some kicking practice 

    In every big match bar a couple of finals when the team was on a downhill run he has rarely stood up and kicked important goals when we are behind and under the pump.  He's a mark and miss player when we aren't in front on the trot (little spotlight/pressure.  Kicking brain goes to jelly.

    • 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.
