    Agree with all except sparrow. Half a game and had 5 tackles and seemed to be pressuring everyone.

    Unlikely as it sounds, Jobe Watson said it right towards the end. Something along the lines of “every Melbourne player could confidently say they contributed to that win”. A great team performance, especially without the ball.

    Absolutely.  Redemption for him.  A great game I thought. 

    Huge job thrown at him mid game, did a fine effort

    An incredible day. 
    Truely felt that this was the best all round performance. 
    Massive appreciate for our stars but sparrow, hunt, Jetta were amazing.

    The confidence is growing. 
    Get May back ASAP and b brown in and this is gold.

    A massive well done to the players, football department and those around the club that do the little things!

    2021 is an odd year, never a demon’s best year, but I think the tide is about to change!

    And AFL team of the week should have at least 5 MFC players. 
    Langdon for a second round pick! Champagne trading!

    He really did. I have been very sceptical.

    • 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.
