I can't really see a way we don't have significantly more run in the second half. dogs had a week off, but the 5-6 weeks leading up have been as hard and emotionally draining as they're likely to get. they've certainly done it the hard way. 

they'll be setting themselves to throw a big punch early, and hope we're a little bit off like Port. 

i've said it a few times, if this is close at 1/4 and 1/2 time, it's a Demons premiership. they need to be minimum 5 goals clear and then hang on for dear life

    Listening to Kane Cornes this morning from Perth he reckons the general support around town is in the Dees favour against the Doggies 80/20.
     

    If that translates even to 70/30 or 60/40 at the game then that’s a huge advantage on top of the fact we’ve already played some massive games at the same ground.

    That, the demons being favourite on most tipping boards and that apparently we are getting most of the media attention plays right into Bevo's "us against the world" mantra he has adopted for the finals.

    The mantra will be galvanising but I doubt it will get them over the line.  They don't look united or menacing enough.

    When did sauce become “ketchup”?

    Didn’t, there is both. Ketchup is thicker.

    There’s a lot of talk about targeting Gawn but I hope we are super aggressive on the Bont and English. 

    Im sure they will but it will cost them.

    Jv wont be happy and Luke Jackson will be free to run around creating havoc,

    Its nice to think we have something of a home ground advantage in Perth.

    Played our last game and one a few weeks back v the Eagles so I guess its a little bit more suited to us.

    Aside from winning this year, it would be only fair to win back to back flags so most supporters will be able to see us win at the G.

    But I get ahead of myself. The dogs will be a tough team to beat.

    I hope we jump out of the blocks and kick well at goal. I think Bbb may have a big day supported by Kozzie.

    The last time we met was different.

    I doubt they will get 14 more frees. Josh Bruce is out. Jv is back to his best. Max has gone turbo mode. Our fwd line is settled.

    Genius, as a fan I've got a 100% winning record at optus. 3 from 3. Let's hope it is 4 from 4.

    • 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.
