    People fall for this every year, it's April - you do not want your club playing at their best. 

    Agree. Carlton won’t get any better and eventually a couple of wheels will fall off

    I remember hearing this every week last year from my friends about us!

    It’s not just about how well Carlton are playing, it’s the sheer amount of talent they have now.

    Always helps when your talent is fit.
    Curnow's been injured for 3-4yrs and Cripps the last 2.
    Hope the seasons too long and they break down again.
    I know too many Carlton supporting floggs.
    Prefer it when they're quiet.

    Backline is still suspect. No ruckman. 
    Midfield and Forwards are elite.

    This has turned into a really good game. Hawks look to have bottomed out and are now on the rise whilst the Blues are still a work in progress, particularly at the back.

    Same.
    You don't win flags in April/May/June/July etc, etc till we won one in September.
    Ha, ha ... Suck it fools.

    As per Collingwood, this 1000% manic intensity of footy is totally unsustainable especially when you don’t have a defensive structure to hold onto a lead and shut a game down. 
    Good lists are one thing. Good systems are another. Both Carlton and Pies need to adjust their system if they want to go deep in September

    I also rate Carlton. They have a list they can build something really good with and their draw is a complete joke so they should make the 8 comfortably. 
    But until they sort out their defensive two way running work, and can sustain their attacking game style for 4 quarters, I will not be backing them in for a flag. 
    As you said Melbourne 2018. Up, down, glitz and glamour attacking dazzle, and then a complete blow up against top sides and when the heat comes.

    Two big clubs at 2-0 with a lot of bandwagoners.

    I hate both teams. But Williams HTB in the Hawks F50 was as blatant as they come with the new rule.

    Hawks robbed. Glad it wasn’t us would have blown a gasket.

    Carlton have 1 good half of my footy per game. Keep them to within 4 goals and you can over run them in the 2nd half.

     

    Proven again today.

    What on earth are the blues happy about.? 4 h goals after 1/4 time.

    Wtf.

    To be going life and death with Doggies and Hawks so early in the season is not good news for the baggers, will slow down big time at the half way point of the season

    I’ve spent the entire game in a chat, me and seven diehard Blues fans. I’m not sure but I think at least three hearts stopped. 😂

    Edit: mine wasn’t one of them. ❤️💙

    Cracking round of football so far with only North stinking it up.

    Blues gamed the medi sub rule as explicitly described by Curnow in post match.

    AFL investigation needed here. Curnow out 1 week to 'recover '

    • 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.
