I've noticed that a lot of the Dees podcast/media material focusses on Melbourne's own strengths/weaknesses etc.  Was wondering what the appetite might be for a thread on "opposition" analysis. 

I've been tossing up the merits of doing a video podcast focussing specifically on our main opposition (Bulldogs, Richmond, Port etc) with an angle of their strengths/weaknesses vis a vis the Demons. 

What do people think? Is there enough even to start a small space on DL for this sort of discussion.  The reason I've become interested in this sort of thing, as i've noticed that there are some popular narratives around certain teams and the way they play and I want to see whether that stacks up when we look at footage and statistics. And, if it is true, what does it mean for our system and the way that we like to play?

 

 

Love it - and desire wise, it's helpful if it looks at things a la the Game Plan/Tactics and all the Jazz thread, rather than regurgitating stats.

Great idea. I havent seen Adelaide once this year. Was perusing their big footy site and didn't get much intel on howthey play etc. It was mostly about how they play 1 KD short.

That may not work out well for them this week. Also how most didn't want Tex rushed back inti the side this week.

 

Woud be interested in oppo research

  • 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.
