    Are you watching this Goodwin?

    Maybe watching but are there “learnings”?

    Wrong in what way though THBT??

    My gut feel tells me they MIGHT have gone too hard too early (built them up to a mad level of top end fitness) leaving many spent by the time we got to round 12ish.

    Goodwin's poor player management in the second half of the season exacerbated this overkill pre-season prepping.

    Big emphasis on 'might have' and pure speculation on my behalf.

    Yeah I agree with this.

    I think we left too much up to too few for too long. I also think we got our training loads wrong because the entire side looked flat at 3/4 time for the last 2 months of the year.

    Max’s interview during the week alluded to the fatigue of the 2 seasons. No one was fresh when it mattered. We also played finals for 2 months before the big stuff began, and I think that just ground us down.

    Amazing i50 by Myers to Hawkins.

    If only we could do similar instead of long bombing to a pocket 

    Watching the Dees all year I thought there may have been a rule change outlawing kicking to a forward target.

    The Lions didn’t beat us, we did with our inaccuracy in the first half. Game should’ve been over at half time.

    Cats pressure reminding me of ours in the lead up to last years GF

    Reminds me of the Swans against us a few weeks back.

    Much more relevant don't you think?

    Hipwood also playing the worst game of the year the week after playing his best.

    Berry as well.  Thought he was some sort of king pin after scragging Oliver last week.  Then there's that nong nong Dilmot

    • 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.
