The backline will be interesting

There isnt much competition for the true FB, CHB. Its between May, Weitering &   Stewart  probably ends up taking one of the pockets and i think Maynard gets the other pocket.

I think Gus will be close to securing one of the HB roles, given his defensive form and recent time in the midfield, which ticks both boxes. 

Trac and Oliver are 100% locks. Gawn will be likely (pairing up with Witts for the ruck combo). Having 5 players in the team will be a tough ask, given Geelong are unlikely to have that many.

Kicking 50 goal in a season probably had something to do with it...

Fair selections. You'd reckon Oliver, Trac, May and Max will get jackets.

Fritta and Brayshaw next season!

Lingers struggled the second half of the year and many here were calling on Kozzie to be dropped half way through the year!

Reckon Melksham, Spargo and Ben Brown are stiff (but only because I like to annoy people on Demonland).

surely ANB gets a nomination for the best spew of the season

I think May is actually a bit lucky. 

Has Had an average 2nd half year compared to last year. He has been in most people's AA teams by default

 

Lingers stiff but the truth is he doesn’t handle a tag very well, maybe that’s why he missed 


Only 2 rucks, and Gawn [censored] all over Witts.

Marching to his 6th AA

Delighted for Fritta. 50 goals - best medium forward in the AFL by a country mile.

Sam Taylor is a lock for one of the KPB positions. May should get the nod ahead of Weitering and Stewart for the other, and I'd imagine Stewart would get the BP position. Maynard should get the other BP position, and the half backs should go to Daniel Rioli and Sinclair.

He’s been a bit off his best but at the same time since he came back from his break he’s easily beaten Daniher twice and taken care of Walker, McKay, Hawkins and Naughton. 

Unless I’ve forgotten someone the only key forward who’s really got away on him was Peter Wright early in the year

Playing half a season of ordinary football probably played a role too

I’d have Wilkie in a back pocket, such a great shut down defender. And I’d have Sicily over Taylor, just does so much more.

Stewart CHB, Maynard back flank. Rioli’s been great but only need 1 rebounding defender

6 AAs in 178 games. Has to be an all time record of games per AA

Jeez max could go 5 in a row!

He should go 6 in a row. Witt's has been pretty good but no where in the Max tier. I'd only go one ruckman. I get having 2 when Grundy and gawn where both playing at the same high level but no ruckman could claim to be at Max's level this year

No Maynard? I think he’s had a very very good year. 

If Max gets his sixth jumper that puts him ( deservedly) into rarified company.

Max is so bloody good his "average" performances get underrated . Yet an "average" performance from Max is light years ahead of the best from almost any ruckman I can remember.

Plus he is an outstanding captain.

Absolute champion of the game

I think Sinclair has had a better year so much so that they had to put a tagger on him.

No ifs about it he WILL get his 6th AA jacket.

  • 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.
