Gawn - dominated when required

Fritsch - amazing second half

Brown - one quarter performance 

Petracca - lacked usual drive

Jackson - great youthful energy

Pickett - little involvement again

Spargo - better forward pressure

Melksham - far from convincing 

Harmes - had limited presence

Oliver - surprisingly didn’t dominate 

Salem - the consummate professional 

Lever - intercepted at will

Brayshaw - disappointingly quiet game

Hibberd - safe but limited

Langdon - pleasingly found form

Bowey - safe and mature

Jordon - had limited involvement 

Rivers - presence and endeavour 

Neal-Bullen - prefers the wet

Sparrow - just a game

Petty - just broke even

Smith - probably surprised everyone

    Last week you nailed it.

    I know its hard but Im not sure if we watched the same game.

    Petty totally cleaned up.

    And Trac saved the day.

    And while bb didnt score after the first he kept competing often playing the role Tmac usually does up the ground.

    Don’t  often disagree with you Joeboy but we did win by 7 goals. God help Adelaide if the team had played well.

    He had 28 touches, 5 clearances, 7 tackles, 348 metres gained, 8 score involvements, 28 pressure acts (our most) and got to spend 12% of the game on the bench.

    Harmes cannot kick and is less than average handball, he does not deserve game

    Harsh on Petty. I thought he was fantastic today

    Particularly in 2nd half when they were closing the gap. He took several crucial marks, spoils, and kicked reliably.

    Bont had 31 touches in the loss against the Hawks. Can't say he had his usual influence but he might squeeze out a vote or two simply because he's 'The Bont'. Howe was a clear BOG standout from that match.

    I love Joeboys 3 word analysis and look forward to it every week.

    If we do win the premiership I can't wait to see who he thinks played poorly.

    Rivers - the new wheatley

    Forgot about Wheaters.

    They do have some similarities in playing style.

    • 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.
