    I wouldnā€™t go that far. He did ok, but looked a bit underdone to me.

    I think he definitely improved as the game went on but I honestly thought May was not having a great night particularly earlyĀ

    news.com's take:Ā 

    ā€˜Heā€™s astoundedā€™: Demons star snubs teammate in ugly moment

    Hilarious article, particularly read with the knowledge of how the game played out 9whcih the article doesn't reference - it must have been written and posted almost immediately after the incident

    Haha yeah the 'that's not a premiership side' stuff is over the top, but I do agree with the 'that's not Dees footy' comments. It will get wallpapered over because of how we won in the end, but I thought it was horrendous from Fritsch, and not the first time for him this year.

    100% agree. And it was 'un Melbourne'. Worried me at the time, in terms of our attitude.

    Brown burnt, I think nibbler, really badly later in the game at the punt road end.

    Easy handball to a player in oodles of space for a certain goal, and instead he tries an off balanced snap on his non-preferred - and missed.

    Yep, and Fritsch did it again in the third when he tried to dribble a goal from the boundary instead of centring it.

    Fritsch, Brown and (not last night) Trac all have a selfish tendencyĀ around goals that they haven't seemed to be able to stamp out.

    Yep, good call.

    There was touch of Hollywood about hat effort as well

    Whilst I think the commentators were over the top, there were missed goal opportunities that could have been costly in a close game. Ā

    Hope they learn from those ā€˜mis takesā€™.Ā

    • 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 ... itā€™s time to discuss this weekā€™s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliverā€™s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line ā€¦ 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.
