Try Toby in the middle, as he hasn’t done a thing and should be fit and fast, if they can give him the ball at stoppage.

    Apart from continually letting Port move it from full back to half forward with a series of uncontested small kicks (which is making me yell at the TV screen) our contested ball play is killing Port. And funny how good BBB looks when a kick goes to his advantage!

    21-14 hit outs but only 19-31 clearances. Nothing changed from last round. Still a big problem.

    Doesn’t help that we are missing the best clearance player in the game.

    We never seem to have any fwds on the goal line. Infuriating

    instead we keep them around the 50m mark to try and keep the ball in the f50

     

    This is barely watchable.

    Tmac hasn't torn this season apart but since he's been out our fwd line isn't functioning as well.

    Clearances 19-31. Ffs. Again 

    Haven’t won a clearance with Jackson in the ruck. Has been horrible with his connection.

     

    I thought for a year now that Port had cleaned up their act, but my faith has been restored, they are still the same mob of dirty bast$#%@ that they always have been, and, when you get the imprimatur of three maggots to push, pull, punch and scrag,  well it's all go, isn't it.

    There is a bloke missing for us.

    Stoppage clearances 22 to 11 at 3/4 time Need to lift

    I know be pessimistic is a right of passage on this site but OMG Kossie is so far the best little man in comp

    Let's not forget how many players have missed games thus year due to injuries  and protocols.

    You can't just waltz in after and absence and play your best by any means.


    Sparrow zero awareness ... my god

    • 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.
