It’s as if we weren’t playing that q for the umpires. They missed everything going out way. Port can’t keep that up all game. Should break open if we can maintain our structures.

    That is one of the worst quarters I’ve seen of AFL. We’ve got the game on our terms, though didn’t have a great amount of rebound. This is going to be a slog. 

    Completely agree. That's half an hour of my life I'm never getting back. 

    The upside is that the next three quarters can't possibly be as dull as that...

    Played on our terms but a pretty bog ordinary game of footy so far.

    Hunt is playing a ripper and it’s nice to see Maxy clunking a few

    We kept them goalless but again we missed opportunities. 

    Trac you are great but when you mark inside 50 don't turn your back, McDonald was on his own in the goal square and you ignored him. 

    Here's hoping for a good 2nd quarter. Take your chances. We are dominating, just not on the scoreboard.

    We could be better. Where we are positioning our shots in the forward fifty needs more polish.


    Port's intensity and pressure has been great but I really can't help but think we're letting them run at us a bit.

    I don’t think I’ve ever seen a more bizarre display of umpiring in my life! Perhaps they are looking through the channel 7 camera which is filming the game from the other side of the river

    Poor kids. What did they do to deserve that?

    Hunt's defensive acts are good but his disposal is awful.

    Jordon has been great.

    Get ruthless in front of goals and we'll be right...

    So I was worried about how Lever would come back, as he has not always been great 1st match back from a spell but I think he looks good so that is promising. Weid dropped a sitter am praying very hard for him. Our system down back look solid. Max is on fire with marking, best game this year. I have a feeling Viney is quite angry and is going to eat someone.

    • 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.

      It's Game Day and Clarry's 200th game and for anyone who hates Carlton as much as I do this is our Grand Final. Go Dees.

    • 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.
