That was such a soft 50m goal to Dunny.

Good to see him back I guess.

Free kicks.

Pies 11

Crows 4

Haha yes a draw would be awesome.

    Walker causes so many turnovers....... I imagine he thinks he looks good doing it and cannot understand these pesky black and white jumpers getting in the way....

    Pies do not look good a I watch the Crows play in a similar fashion to the way they did against us.

    Wonder if they will run out of legs in the last.

     

    Lets be real about this game. It is atrocious.

    Watching Frost for the Hawks this year, I disagree, he has consistently been good for the Hawks this year, was good against us and I reckon Clarkson would be happy with the trade, he also hits others quite hard, doing more than Frawley on probably a third of the money.

    Collingwood. 2 goals to half time, 

     

    hope me they do worse next game !!

    should not win at that score

    Opposition scouting watch based on 1st half:

    -Taylor Adams is their playmaker, you cannot afford him to give him space as he sets up the majority of Collingwood scores and is generally a neat pick, would recommend a tag

    -Grundy looks tired and not impacting much apart from winning the hitouts, Gawn could outrun him off his feet

    -Darcy Cameron is their only big target, block his space

    -The collingwood forwards thrive on space, do not allow them any space- in a crowded forward line they are rubbish

    -Collingwood love to use the corridor, make them go down the line and block the corridor

    -Maynard sets up alot off HBF. Don't leave him on his own.

    He was good against us, but his deficiency still exists and always will. There are games his “Frost Ball” will look amazing and create something, then 5min later it will cost goals. 

    It’s why I wasn’t gutted about him leaving (though still a little disappointed). 

    Probably better for Demons if Collingwood win by 3 goals

    they think they have done well and we belt them 


    What I’ve seen of this riveting match is that Adelaide have actually had equal amounts of opportunities but the pies have just been cleaner with taking their chances.

    Yes it does, I still think he has tidied up a bit with Clarskon's coaching.

    But your thoughts please, the game is so micro managed now, that anyone choosing to take the game on and making a boo boo, is super exposed with the media making a meal of it, I actually think it takes a fair bit of courage to not be a conservative down the line defender,  it is one of the things I like about our footy and dislike the way the game becomes all about the percentages.

    Useless [censored] they are

    Nah we want them to win.  Last thing we need is for the Pies to give the Crows their first win.  They then get smashed in the media and are fired up for their game against us.

    Better for them to win, be relieved and be exhausted before facing us.

    We wont go into the 8 now if we beat the Pies.

    Them winning tonight doesn't help us at all.

    Adelaide will probably ask for a priority pick this year and probably get one knowing the AFL.

    • 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.
