That’s true. I don’t think they can replicate this.

Absolutely they can. If they get rolling again we won't stop them.

We can do this.

Reset, get our contested possession back in order and get our forward conversation right.

C'mon boys we still in this!

    Why aren't people talking about that decision to gawn. I mean that was a goal right?

    Melbourne just need to resettle.

    Well it's a simple equation for here. If the club is as good as we want to believe they are, they can wrangle this back.

    If not... well... we all know the outcome.

    Half time couldn't come quick enough. Defensively at sea as soon as the ball hits the deck, beaten around the ball and the Bont showing his class. On ball brigade need to lift otherwise we're cactus. 

    We're re-set before and can do so again. Huge third quarter coming up. We can do this

    Must stop Daniel behind the ball, need to man up forward side of ruck contest 

    Neale-Bullen's job from what I can see. (could be wrong).

     

    Fritsch has been poor the whole finals series. His kicking inside 50 has been shaky, keeps trying a kick running parallel to the goals and has missed it multiple times.

    ANB is surely the answer.

    Why didn't we even see a review of that? It looked like a goal on the broadcast. Very confusing.

    Few worries. Daniel and Bont for Dogs.

    Kozzie, TMac and May for us.

    I feel a big surge coming this quarter. This will sort the men from pretenders.

    Can't let Bont mark uncontested, surely someone can get a fist on the ball

    Oliver. Gawn and Petracca ofter play best in 2nd half. Someone needs to put chains on Daniel.

    Gee May is a liability, not flying for the ball, caught well behind, fumbling the ball.

    Nothing to do with Goodwin, all on the forwards who are actually out on the field. Forward pressure is supposed to be one of our strengths.

    I feel sick right now. I just hope we can get our game together, the system has worked and can work again but we do need to stop the quick ball supply into their 50. 

    And when we get it we must lock it in our 50. When we do that and get a look at goal, take it. Come on Demons, it is not over until it is over.

    They don't have the camera angles to review that kind of goal. The camera angle we saw is just in the wrong spot.

     

    This half time  has less atmosphere than mars

    That second goal was sickening.

    Naughton clearly ran behind play and cut off Viney.

    We need to be better than this and account for their tactics. How did they not study this?

    • 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.
