I've been really disappointed in our younger players. None of them look up to it unfortunately. Who picks these blokes ?

 

Spargo would struggle to get a kick at vfl

The young kids look like....um young kids. Not everyone is Clayton Oliver in their first 10 games.

    Unless I read it wrong, Kozzie played this morning in the middle mainly, and didnt get much of a touch.

    But looked promising, dangerous,  threatening etc etc. Same old

    Has made a few blues, but he is yet to debut at AFL level and he is improving as the game goes on.

    He is also up against arguably the best midfield in the AFL.

    Simpleton comment.  

    He looks no where near it

    Tmac, 3 disposals, 1 of those a turn over resulting in a goal (and a 2nd almost the same).  Bloke is still cooked.

    Needs to be one out at Full Forward

    Leading possessions for us at half time 

    Never would have guessed, he hasn’t been anywhere near influencing the game.  

    Major differences in the way way we are playing the game compared to how we played against Doggies last year.   We are being bold from the Kick ins, often going long to around middle of the ground.  We are not getting sucked into contests like bees to a honey pot, we are holding our space and not giving them easy options. ANd we are without quite a few of our best players.  We are going to tear them apart this half with a fitter and disciplined young Melbourne team. Go Demons 100+points for the game!!

    It’s had to know what to make of this game. We lack our trademark intensity at the coalface, which is rectified by adding Viney and Oliver, and are lacking some class ball use and control - Salem. Im

    I am disappointed about the lack of forwards available. It’s been a glaring problem for 2 years and it’s the thing we need this time of year to work on the most.

    He was carried all last year. As was T MacDonald.

    How is that a free kick for English but not for May? ?

    You know the answer.

    • 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.

      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.
