3 times this qtr we’ve have easy rooms into the fwd 50 for zero goals.

Petty started well but looks spent coming into half time.

2 arsey swans goals from blind Melbourne handballs in the last line of defence.
But we have to start winning it in the centre or we won't win this match.

McDonald, Hibberd, May, Oliver, Langdon, Jackson all good this quarter.

The rest have a long way to go.

Fritsch is playing a shocker

    Petty would lose a contest against a traffic cone on exposed form.

    Started to dominate in that second quarter. Could very well have been another 4 goals up. Torched about 3 gimme goal opportunities.

    Will take that any day of the week getting pantsed in clearances.

    Sydney are such a bore. I would hate to support such a boring team. I hate playing them for this exact reason. They grind you down. 
    Missed too many opportunities in front of goal. Should be 4 goals up.

    If Weideman kicks a bag tomorrow he has to be an automatic replacement for Petty.

    You know they play at opposite ends of the ground right?

    It’s a tough slog. Swans are 4th for good reason. They’ve got good scalps already this year. We need to get better at clearances and kicking into f50. It’s slippery, so hopefully our fitness allows us to get that separation and take uncontested marks to maintain possession. 
    looking forward to a big 2nd half

    I thought that game was postponed - hopefully they do play and Weed plays a blinder

    • 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.
