Yep. We're just one good preseason away.

    And there’ll always be next year.

    I love Gawn and I know these garbage articles are just fodder for the media and have to be done.

    But Jesus if my eyes could roll out of head while I read the same thing each pre-season, I would have gone blind years ago.

    Agree, I see a heading like that and no mater what content is in the article all I read is Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah.  I know we need content on our website and we will see many over the next 4 months, hopefully come March April we can see something to be really excited about

    Your reaction is the same as most Dees supporters.

    The trouble with those words is they sound very hollow because they have never been backed up by deeds.

    I would prefer if the messaging was different. Acknowledge past failures and shortcomings. Say we’ll let our footy do the talking when the season rolls around. Something other than the usual guff. I find it a little insulting tbh.

    Yes its fluff but I do question the value of these pieces and why they have to be published at all.

    Yeah agree, I’d actually prefer it if the club kept a bit quiet and Max just said, hopefully our actions will speak loader than words 

    Leave it at that

    I'd be happy for the club to can all the shop talk until March then drop a new documentary. Until then Max could talk about something he has a better handle on like jaffles or coffee.

    Signal in the red flags.

    The media knows exactly which club (clubs) to get outlandish delusional quotes from.

    We are the gift that keeps on giving this time of year.

    This was said to me 30 years 'Object oriented design is the way of the future and has been so for the last 10 years'.

    Not quite sure why I am sharing that.

    Anyway could I just say that I have been ready for success since 1965.  I think the team is too and if they dont get it they will go elsewhere.

    This is talking the house down in preparation for training the house down. It's like a pre-season for pre-season.

     

    Actions, Max. We're not interested in any words, unless they involve me winning Tattslotto.

    Bring on To Hell and Back #2!

    I'm glad he's positive, and he should be as there are some guys that can seriously play in our team. Time to make something of it.

    Christ this club just can’t help itself. It loves to talk and that’s about it.

    How about shutting up and just getting to work?

    • 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.
