Back to kicking long without looking, while they look for leads. Who’s up the top again?

So hard to watch.

Hawks have turned this into a scrappy Auskick game and it's working

Any chance we can hit a leading target inside 50 or on the Arc???

No chance we bomb it and it 3 talls fly for it and spoil each other

 

u guys should block me coz im gonna come so hard for all the people that were talking about top 2/top 4 etc. despite a body of evidence that shows we have a soft underbelly. 


Look at that.  One kick to the 50 hits.  Then another on the lead between a pack of 5 defenders.  This has to be the worst game we've played this season.  Just ahead of the Pies and then GWS.

We'll be lucky to make a PF.

    We are just bombing it in our 50 and going back to handballing

    Our backline hasn't been great tonight. 

    And you wonder why we don't get talked up as premiership favourites. 

    The players attitudes have been pathetic.

    We do that ourselves.
    Not enough class to slice anyone apart.

    They’re working harder and they’re hungrier. We should come out breathing fire this quarter and instead were barely giving a yell. They’ve  won the quarter on the scoreboard and they’re leading the tackle count 24-9. 

    WAKE UP YOU LAZY [censored]

    Now panicked settle in, a game we controlled we now are in trouble of losing

     

    Oliver complaining about an umpiring decision while the play is still going, Hawks goal.

    That's a microcosm of our attitude tonight.

    • 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.

      It's Game Day and Clarry's 200th game and for anyone who hates Carlton as much as I do this is our Grand Final. Go Dees.

    • 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.
