Out: Pruess (as good as he was), Sparrow
IN: Gawn, Bennell

 

Hard to change. Keeping Vander's, Spargo and the Melkman was a stroke of genius!


Gawn for Pruess if Max is fit. Harmes out and maybe give Jordan a run.

Lockhart out.

Thought he was fantastic, what am I missing

 

Depends on Max. If he is right then Preuss out. I would drop Tomlinson as well and bring in Bennell.

Preuss showed enough tonight for us to wait until Gawn is truly ready, there is no need to rush him back. Harmes and Jones are the two that worry me the most, Sparrow is doing a good job but had lesser impact and may be worth a rotation to blood Jordon or shift Harmes into the midfield and Rivers to the back half. Will ee who gets called out in the scratch that we also won well before I decide but would not surprised if we go unchanged. 

 


all comes down to whether max is crocked and how everyone pulled up

as much as i'd love bennell back in, none of spargo, pickett, jones look like being dropped

i'm going to presume it's simply max for preuss

Give Max another week of rest, Preuss more than capable at the level. Tomlinson was ordinary but cant offer up much of a replacement. His flexibility to go back and take a tall forward has been great the last 3 weeks even in spite of his ball use. Unchanged for mine.

Tomlinson for benell and tmac for maxy. Play both Max and preuss. 


In: Gawn

Out: Preuss

I’m not sure Bennell warrants selection again just yet. The only potential outs would be Tomlinson maybe Sparrow.

TMac may not have dominated , but he is a competitor in the ruck and in the forward like, which suits our smaller fwds . I would bei nterested in how our coaching staff rate some of the "lesser lights "contributions tonight.

Make a tough match-up for the Dogs. Rest the big men forward and Fritta goes to the wing. Won't happen.

Bont and Daniel are the keys to the Dogs. Hold one or both and you're halfway to a win.

HB appears reluctant to lay a tackle. I suspect tackle pressure is what the FD love about Spargo. Sparrow improving each week. A keeper.

Sparrow? No chance.  The kids attack on the ball waa brilliant

Out: McDonald, Tomlinson and Harmes.

In: Gawn, Bennell and Jetta.

All played their roles.  It was Harmes best game

  • 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.
