Daisy should never play forward again, she has lost a yard and we need her Lever like qualities down back 

 

Incredible comeback!

West was probably better than Bannan, but Bannan more influential.

* Worth noting the size and strength of our top players. Against the good sides some of our "girls" tend to get pushed around.

special mention to Libby Birch. Love her approach. Competitive.  Fair.  Does the little things like spoils and blocks.  Ultimate team player.  Often unheralded but key part of our team.

I think part of that is the size disparity between players more than teams. Some of our stronger girls push around other teams smaller opponents too.

Although, we are a fit running side more than a big body team. Which makes the desire to play straight up the middle even more baffling. Spread it out Mick!

And we look more balanced with Paxy on the wing using her run now that she gets beat up by younger players who she used to evade and fend. 

We’re then a bit short in the midfield with Hanks, Mithen and West but neither of those women take a backwards step. As Purcell gets more midfield time along with Zanker we’ll have some strength to go with the little zippier mids. 

Our two bigger body half forwards not getting much of it in Parry and Scott has hurt the forward line. If they can get the ball at CHF we’ll put opponents on the back foot.

Apologies to Paxman and L.Pearce in particular.

  • 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.
