We will be 7-0 top of the ladder with the best % come Sunday afternoon.

I am already looking to next weeks game, Saturday night at the MCG vs the Swans who would love to burst our bubble.  They have been a bit wobbly the last two weeks but if they can beat Geelong tomorrow they will be up and about.

    Geeeze this post could go south. 

    It would be the most "Melbourne" thing ever to drop this game. 

    Really hoping we have matured and have the game beyond doubt by half time. 

     

    You're thinking of the old Melbourne. We don't talk about that Melbourne anymore.

    Folks - I know we are all mentally scarred from the past decades of supporting this club but relax. 

    all I’ve heard the last 6 weeks is - ‘it would be the most Melbourne thing ever to lose this game’

    well we didn’t lose. So maybe we are a good team now. We will lose a couple of games but believe we are a good team.

    Yup.

    We have beaten Sydney once since 2011 and twice since 2006.   The only team left that still owns our souls, and beat us yet again last season when we were in the finals hunt.

    Yes he has never played for us when we are top of the ladder.

    Let’s not get too far ahead of ourselves, we have to win firstly. Out of interest what’s the odds for us going back to back?

    Back to back? I want the 4peat Collingwood robbed us of in the 50s!

    • 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.
