Might need to have a lay down Harmesy, you've made way in the side for J.Wagner.

I am lying down reading this but it isn’t helping

    Wasn’t J Wagner recruited purely on being a lethal kick.

    Hope he shows it tomoz.

    He’s been pretty lethal in the past, sadly lethal to us though. ?

    He is lethal at kicking it out on the full

    Thought that Josh played a respectable game last night.  Didn't star, but held his own and took some good intercept marks.

    There is a nice little moment in this pre-game video on the MFC website of Wagners inclusion being announced to the players.  It think his selection really reinforces good team culture - you train hard and show some form and you will get picked.  Combined with the Bailey Fristch non selection, it's a timely reminder of the standards now in place at the MFC.

    Yeah he did well I thought. Certainly better than anything Harmes has done recently and with Hibberd sore he's bound to get another gig. 

    Happy for him.

    • 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.
