Geez, they miss Greene. Wouldn’t they like a quality finisher tonight?

I’m sitting at the giants attacking end. It is so hard to get through. May Lever and Petty. Such an amazing defensive structure 

Rivers looking back to his best too so far.

    Getting schooled in clearances. God help us if our back-line ever decided to take a day off

    Pressure around the ground outside of clearance work - is better than usual today. We have definitely done our homework. I watched GWS last week against Freo. Seems I wasn’t the only one. We dissected that and went to work implementing a strategy. We are forcing them to bomb it in.

    Can’t win a stoppage but held them goalless.

    Let’s see if we can 2 weeks in a row of goalless halves by our opponents.

    I said it would happen. There are a handful of teams that do this to us year after year. Our turnover game is on tonight which makes us look much better than we are actually playing.  

    Defence is holding up really well but we need to even up the contest.

    Yes, which our system is built to defend really well. But given we are built on contest, why not start in the middle.

    • 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.
