Poor Ben Hobbs.

Drafting bigger bodies.

Huge savings for the chemistry department.

    Not sure he isn't happy, I just fink he might be a foody player first and fourmost.

    Thought the same, but he said in the interview the signal cut out, and it was when they handed him that phone he got the news.   You see his excitement at that point.

    Chesser to Eagles. First big difference to Cal phantom. Wonder what knock on effect will be with Matt Johnson still there.

    First time I have ever watched the draft - and the last. Bat poo boring.

    Tigers got a steal with Gibcus, as did Bombers with Hobbs. I can't believe these 2 were let slip so far through.

    The cards were falling relatively nicely for us, but would have liked to get Wilmot.

    Johnson or Howes?

    I can see us trading our pick with Johnson available, especially if Howes goes to Sydney.

    Great get for this club.

    Big physical 195cm 88kg key forward who has also played down back. Had some insane numbers in the back end of the year in the colts level as a noted goal kicker.

    Welcome Jacob.

    • 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.
