    If Hanks comes back with no forced outs then I’d think about Paxy to half back for Magee out. Or Paxy to half back for Heath to go forward and replace one of the struggling half forwards.

    Injury report.

    Also apparently VFLW is starting this weekend. Who knew? Not me! Glad there's now somewhere to drop players to rather than leaving them to languish.

    I'm really looking forward to seeing Purcell play soon. Her toughness around the ball is something we’ve been missing this season. Hopefully she can find form before our tough run of fixtures against North, Lions and Freo. If she can fire from the get go she’ll be a huge in for us

    I think this happened before Round 5, but for anyone that missed it:

    Also saw a round-up of the stats leaders at the halfway point:

    https://www.womens.afl/news/84380/stats-stars-who-is-leading-at-the-halfway-mark-of-the-season-

    Dees players who feature:

    Avg. Intercept possessions - Birch 2nd

    Avg. Hitouts - L.Pearch =5th

    Avg. Score Assists - Hore 1st, D.Pearce 4th, Hanks 5th

    Total goals - Harris 2nd

    DIO, Kate has been real quiet and ineffective during the last 2 weeks so it would be gr8 if she could recapture her pre and early season form.  Fingers are crossed!  We need her firing as together with, T Harris and D Pearce, they form the basis of an enviable forward structure.

    Parry is lucky to keep her place this week, as we have discussed, and she needs to impose herself.  

    Lauren is the best ruck / onballer in AFLW according to Sarah Black and Meggs agrees. He was lukewarm on Birch last year but Libby has been totally excellent in 2022 and together with Lampard, Goldie and Heath (best game last week) the Dees backline is shaping up well.

    This week we’ll miss one of Meggs’s faves, C Sherriff, due to concussion but he would prefer Bannan on the wing, to the selected inside-mid  🔫  Mithen, on the opposite wing to the indefatigable McNamara-Langdon.

    Hanksy it’s good to have you back. We love you!  We hope Maddie Gay is recovering well and are really looking forward to seeing Liv Purcell play in the Red and Blue.

    Let’s have a big win tomorrow Dees, please kick straight, a few girls to recapture some form and let it be a springboard for the rest of the season.

    Hanks is a big in

    Jackie Parry must have some incriminating photos! Her output has been very low this year but hopefully she can find some form today

    • 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.
