The team is looking good, no nerves, great lateral movement with run to find space, as north are great about shutting down space.  Greta night for footy.

 
 

Standard of this game is very good

 

Definitely taking advantage of what seems to be the scoring end even though it doesn’t look windy

Great ball movement and desperation 

love Goldie in the backline

They said there was no wind that qtr, we got onto as we broke their early pressure around the ball.

The Dees have dismantled a quality opposition in that half. Super impressive.


One of the best quarters of footy I've ever seen from our girls,  they might have had higher scoring efforts against expansion sides before but that was against one of the top sides,  the run and lateral handball game is working a treat

Umpires obsessed with the push in the back rule! Any tackle that ends up with the tackler on top of the tackled, no matter how they got there is adjudged in the back! Ridiculous but it has been working to our favour this match. Glad I am not a defender these days. 


Flicking between ash and the footy. What a great 2nd quarter. Nth are supposedly the team to beat. Hopefully we can continue to put the goals on the board and people start to notice us. 

Go dees!

We are noticeably cleaner than most other sides. Well structured behind the ball. Leading disposal getter in the league.

Could be a real shot this year.

i thought so too

be interesting to see if that sort of ruling is followed thru for aflm; will defo mean a lot frees and thus ball movement

 

Backline reading North’s kicks well, backing themselves and playing in front. Some of the movement has been first class and that was a very exciting quarter to watch.

Best half of footy I have seen from the girls. North are a good side but we made them look ordinary. I hope we can play with the same intensity in the second half.

    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.

    It's Game Day and Clarry's 200th game and for anyone who hates Carlton as much as I do this is our Grand Final. Go Dees.

  • 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.
