You must have really high standards for him, I thought he played well and gave him a couple votes

I have Salem in for 1 vote. He showed a lot more endeavour and his kicks went forward and not sideways and short.  I don’t rate disposals efficiency for him sometimes because of the short sideways chip kicks but he was much better on Saturday night. His goal late in the 3rd quarter was crucial and brought us back into the game.  A step forward.

A lot of people giving votes to Salem, it was one of his worst games for a while apart from his goal.

Rubbish a good game frommChrisyian 

 

Late, but...

I was amazed to see the Herald Sun opinion that Pickett was best on ground, a decision not shared by anyone here.

yeah he is not a favourite of many around here. 

he has contributed a lot more than Melksham and others above him, but admittedly no stand out games

Don't quite know about best on, but Kosie did get our team high for score involvements apparently (don't know if that includes his two fairly ordanary misses?).  I do recall him being pretty good in that passage where he did the old one/two handball through the centre of the ground, but don't explicitly recall any others.  Perhaps he is the kind of player who can't be judged on possession numbers alone, but I think he's still a fair way off ripping open games on his own.  You can see the potential, but I'm finding watching him a bit of a frustrating tease at times.

Agree.  But I think it reflects that he's been good most games, but not great in many.

I did think he was quite good around the ground generally against the Giants and did kick a timely goal for us under pressure in the second half.

However, while it's true he's our leading goal kicker,  he's  also kicked more behinds than goals, which for a specialist forward isn't great and I suspect people mark him down for that.

  • 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.
