Two pw frees to the bulldogs up forward for a point then a goal.

They're up by 8.

Jetta back on.

It’s no surprise we are struggling to get our hands on it with so many of our best mids out.

    We are being run over. They are front and Centre, have better skills and are killing us around clearances. I know we are playing plenty of young ones. 
     

    if the plan is to score forward half goals, someone hasn’t read the script. No ball retention in the forward half. 

     

    Wow we got a free.

    Fritsch kicks straight. good lad.

    WOW after 10minutes of footy, great supporter....not 

    Not even watching the game.

    I admire Vanders and loved the intensity and aggression he brought when the club needed it 6-7 years ago, but he hasn’t impacted a game of footy for over 3 years now and is 29 years old. Couldn’t be an easier list decision than to delist him IMO.

    Worrying signs around the packs, they always seem to have a free player on their backside that means a clean free run forward.

    Free to Frtsch directly in front 20m out.

    Goal!

    3 points down.

    Seems to be a set play to kick to Gawn on the wings with a second tall in behind. Gawn overruns and Tmac or Jackson take the uncontested mark.


    Gawn down for a second and I feel vomit coming on. Please take him off. It’s not worth the risk!

    The plus side is that we appear to have a functional defence.

    Nobody nailing down their round one spot so far.


    Outplayed, but not punished on the scoreboard.

    Looked better the last few minutes of the quarter.

    we've had less than half as many possessions and trail by 3 points

    With no midfield. We are lucky they haven’t scored with their opportunities. On the other hand we have done fairly well with limited ones.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Carlton

      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.
