I stand corrected

I wonder if Toby is sitting there thinking Hmmm if this guy is any good he's going to be direct competition for me. Better lift my act. I guess 2022 is a make or break year for TB like a few others particularly on the Rookie list.

The more competition for places the better ….. nobody should feel too comfortable.

I agree and also it isn’t going to be easy to crash into a premiership side so that gives our coaches a lot of time to mould these players into selfless team oriented hungry players.

Really like the look of him from those video clips, I think 45 would be the perfect fit for him. 

Welcome to the club!

I have watched his interview a couple of times now, I just love his enthusiasm he was so excited that all the boys had texted him and he had texted them back (great stuff boys). I feel close to him already and hope that he has some luck in the future with the Dees, it has been quite the journey.💕❤️💙

 

Models his game on Petracca!  Don't seem to have the build or type of game for that that - but why not aim for the stars?  He's entering an elite environment now with great development and culture.  Like all our new draftees, he's got so much more chance of reaching his potential than many others that have come before him.

How nice must it be for draftees coming to Melbourne thinking, “these guys have been good at nurturing and developing players”. It’s such a removal from what we were pre-Roos. Allowing young players to come into their own at a steady pace is such a beautiful thing. Hopefully this coming season they have a full VFL to get match practice and game time.

  • 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.
