That Bedford fumble. Little moments matter so much in games like this.

That was the turning point.

Second on the ladder now too.

    Such a predictable garbage ball movement from the half back. Kick long to a pack. Nobody marks. Geelong runs away with it. It’s pathetic. 
    These old [censored] have made us look so second rate tonight

    How many down field frees has Kozzie given for the season

    How many pressure acts by Kozzie have seen kicks smothered or skewed this season?

    Top spot gone after that goal. With Blues, Freo, Lions and Pies to come, it’s going to be tough to finish top two.


    4 goals down, 4 ½ minutes to play - yes, possibly, but extremely unlikely.   Has Clarry been subbed?

    Answer my own question - no

    20 points.   Maybe.  Bridge too far at this time in the 4th

    Gawn came back way too early. Hurt us tonight. 
    Been uncompetitive. 

    Never seemed like a good idea 

    Why do Melb insist on gathering the ball off the ground when under severe pressure when a knock on or quick slap forward might allow your players to run onto it and clear congestion.

    This is most likely our worst all round performance this season IMV given the ins.

    Feels like the bulldogs game last year at a similar time. Looked heavy, fumbly, got close but ran out of legs.

    Lost the contest all night , that’s been the main difference.

    Fumbles and poor forward entries just the icing on the very bitter cake really.

    We are not as good as last year. It’s going to be almost impossible to win.

    And Kosi’s miss

    Awful technique.  Tried to guide it through instead of running in a straight angle and letting the curl of the ball off the boot do the work

    • 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.
