Great ep so far. Still listening. I'm going to disagree with @binman RE KPFs and pressure. I'd be happy with 2 or 3 tackles from Brown and Weideman, providing they're kicking 2-3 goals a game and bringing the ball to ground.

Weideman was ordinary in the Casey game at applying defensive pressure, but when on song in the big time, his tackling is just as tough as Lynch or Riewoldt for Richmond. Brown just needs to match that.

McDonald is a bit different given he hasn't been kicking big bags. His value is pressure and providing a focal target up the ground when we need it from defence.

 

Not sure I agree with you, Bin RE ANB not going out all year. If he plays another game or two like the North game soon, he'll be out. If you look back at his career to date, Goodwin definitely backs him in, but you can have all the pressure acts in the world, but he didn't lay a tackle. His KPIs would definitely include tackle count. He stays in this week IMO because he has credits in the bank this season. We need ANB of Rounds 1-6 though, because he's been a real asset and kicked some clutch goals.

Thanks again, Andy. Another winner.

@binmanmentioned AFL provision. Could someone point me to that, please?

You have the option of watching highlights or extended (which is every single involvement). I recommend extended as tbey give a better sense of a player's game.

For example melksham's highlights go for 2 mins and extended 11 mins!

I just watched melksham's involvements.

He had a pretty serviceable game i have to say. His best this season.

Two beautiful kicks - one to Brown on the lead and one to max on the lead

G'day guys,

Just wanted to say 'thanks' for all your efforts in putting the pod together every week, it's certainly something I look forward to - and not just because we are winning at the moment!

I know it must be a big effort and commitment to put it on every week and its very much appreciated.

Thanks again

 

 

 


Thanks Andy, George and Bin. Great knowledge, insight and balance.  A million miles ahead of the general football media.

  • 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.
