I hope this isn’t the Last time we play on the MCG this year

Something tells me this might be the case SWYL. I hope the situation in Melb can get better for all the diehards who have shed blood, sweat and tears for this club.

    Couple of things can come from this game.

    1. Take back top spot and go into next week with more confidence, with 3 on the trot.

    2. More touch for our forward half connection. I expect Fritsch to get on the end of a few today. 

    3. Oliver's game vis a vis the Coaches Votes/Brownlow.

    May out and Smith in.  I wonder how early in the week Smith knew?  Good chance to give May a rest, and to see where Smith fits in.  I reckon Petty steps into the May role, and smith plays more of a hybrid hunt/petty role.  A good chance for all in such glorious conditions.

    Today feels like a nothing game. We don't have to win, we just have to beat Geelong to finish 2nd or even top if port goes down the the Dogs. . 

     

    doesn't seem to be on ch7 in melb

    anyone have any more info (other than fox/kayo)? 

    If Joel Smith leaks less than 3 goals, that’s a win. I hope he makes me eat my hat.

    Seven are doing the later game. 

    No worries about giving Maysie a rest. I'm actually surprised a few other guys weren't "managed".....particularly a couple of the younger guys.

    Probably be good for the younger guys to get a good run at the ‘G.

    As long as it is just a well earnt rest and nothing more serious because no doubt that without May we cannot win a flag. 

    No May and no Tmac. Definitely not confident. 


    Good call resting May. We have Cats and first final coming up over a 7-8 day period and he’ll be cherry ripe

    The over confidence of some on here who just never learn brings on my MFCSS severely.

    We have seen over and over this season if you are off your game, you can get rolled easily.

    I will take a one point win as long as we don’t cop any injuries. 
    Starting to cop a few and it’s a real worry. 

    Could be a bit in and out of this game at the start, a friend had a bad accident at work last week and ended up in hospital. We're finally allowed to talk with him on the phone so game on in the background and thread open :)

    Don’t understand why Weid didn’t get a run. Right weather and down a couple of key position players.

    Other than 'yuk', this has a touch of Shakespeare about it

    Think his papers are stamped unfortunately for him.

    Comments by supporters on a website have absolutely no bearing on how the team performs.

    Which is the main thing.
    More important than anything we need to go in with a fit list.

    • 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.
