I wish him luck. He'll need it. North are a basket case.

The AFL is a copycat league, after Clarkson success, every club wanted a inexperienced Young coach to get the job, now with Fagan having success with Brisbane,  every club is going to look for a Fagan type coach like noble, that is going to be the trend in the AFL.

True but I think Shaw was a young inexperienced coach and he was appointed after Fagan started having success with Brisbane.

Talking of Fagan I’m not sure we can say he’s been a complete success just yet. I think Brisbane are still a ways off winning a flag. They had all the advantages this year and were still pumped in the prelim. They were knocked out in straight sets last year. Daniher is far from a certainty to stay fit so I’m not sure using Fagan as a successful example is true. Might be in the future but not yet.

there's a good chance daniher could be a bit of a destabilising agent if he he only gets on the park occasionally which is likely

 

Looks like Roos will be wearing blue and white.  ? .  He will be mentoring Noble for a year.

The North president has certainly got in early with the blow torch on Noble; wanting top 4 finish in the next 2 - 3 years and contending for a flag.

No chance.

imv that is not helpful from a president.  Let the dust settle.

  • 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.
