Lobb is leaving because his partner wants to return to the eastern states. Nothing to do with issues at Freo

We should hook her up with Jacko.   :)

Agree.

It's a bit weird because I think their  biggest need, by far, is a couple of high quality big bodied midfield bulls to compete with the bontempellis, cripps and Oliver types.

 

Nat Fyfe is probably that mid 

Using a few assumptions, he would’ve earned the equivalent of 1,692,900 Qantas frequent flyer points over the course of his playing career… surely they give him the chance to crack the 2 million?  Cruel.

Worthy of another year for sure. At 37 unlikely to be that expensive either. Strange decision

Shades of Boomer Harvey. Get rid of one of your best because, you know, age!

It makes you wonder whether they are serious about the business of winning a Premiership. Mundy is an awesome player and I'd still rate as among their best players.

It’s reminiscent of North forcing Brent Harvey out when he was in blistering form at the back end of his career. And look at North now…

But this is just a snap shot in time. Just like we could have said the same about the Dees in 2017 - 'And look at the Dees now' - yet 5 years further on - we still made the same decision re: James,  'And look at the Dees now'.

I guess what I am saying, is the decision to end Boomers career,  has no baring on the future of North, just like James McDonalds' had no baring on where we are, and similarly where Freo will be.

The case can be made that it slow tracks development though getting rid of leaders too early. Could it be done better?

Hide this post from BT or he will be all over it next match 😮🤮😂

At least they honoured him with an award, the DCM.

Don't Come Mundy.

  • 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.
