    That looks about right. 
     

    My only wonder is whether Melksham is the right sub over Jones, Jetta or Sparrow.

    It's a hard one for sure. Melksham can give great delivery with his kicking and can kick 1-2 cheap goals if he's in the right spot. Sparrow is a bull and has an awesome inside game which is great if jordon, oliver or viney were to get injured mid game. My order would be milkshake, sparrow, jones and jetta.

    Might be time to think of another topic to post about @WERRIDEE. 

    These threads are getting seriously boring. 

     

     

    No need to read it Jimmy.

    Werridee- nailed it again. 
     

    Just to clarify though… is Marty Hore also ruled out for the year as well ?

    10 to 12 weeks it said on the injury report.

    The best team is the team that is selected every week. I have complete faith in who we put out on the park. I don't have agendas against certain players like some here do and back the team.   They deserve it, they have proven over the last 11 games

    This weekend could well be the tie-breaker to decide this. I think I’m biased because I really like Sam and I think seeing him develop in front of our eyes makes me want it more for him. Sam needs to find a way to create goals when he isn’t even playing well, that seems to be what Brown is able to do. 

    I really hope Sam fires through 3+ goals and takes a bunch of contested marks. This has to be his time to take the role by the scruff.

    I think at present Bbb is a better player but its line ball. Since sw is young, then long term sw is the one we want playing.

    Thanks. I just read that about Hore. 

    Make no difference to our playing sticks in 2021.

    Hard to justify even if comes back earl y August say and very difficult to place in our defence Petty better defender Marty not great on smalls IMO and is interceptor 3rd or 4th in line.  
     

    Hope Marty does/can come back late in year and get 2/3 Casey games snd Finals there.

    • 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.
