    As shaky a defensive effort. I’m calling it, we will get rolled!!

     

    And people don’t think we should call Clarkson. The man is a genius. Getting out coached and out played badly.

    Dees pathetic effort against bottom team Again !!! 

    X bombing to packs in fwd 50

    x Vandenburg and Viney cannot hit a target 

    X Trac handballs to no one. Handballs to Jackson surrounded by 3 Hawks. 
    x ball watching. Gawn.

    x out tackled 
    x kicking for goal. Pathetic. 

    nine negatives

    Just now, leave it to deever said:

    Its bizarre we can beat every side in the eight but struggle only to bottom teams.

    We have sloppy skills, and don't stick tackles

    We're susceptible to a dog fight, but our structure holds up against class

    You can tell when we're off. Double grabbing loose balls and inviting pressure. Slow predictable ball movement. So frustrating to watch.

    % now back below Geelong.

    Any team with heart and character would have boosted their % by 10 tonight, but, no ... will be bloody lucky to even get over the lien

    Hawthorn players are just free. 6 more scoring shots. Those early misses might cost us. 

    Top teams put away these bottom teams.

    Melbourne have always had this attitude of coasting against lower teams & think it will just happen


    Boooooooooooooooo

     

    Hawthorn are out working us pure and simple. But my god umpiring that 50 set a standard. Hawthorn player ran into one of our who marked and nothing.

    • 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.
