The skillful small forward/winger has completed his second season at the club still without a senior promotion but came close on more than one occasion. He showed enough in his best games that he has the ability to take step forward in 2023 and the opportunity will come.

 

"The Demons’ first-round selection in the 2020 national draft, the midfielder-forward is still yet to make his senior debut. Signed a two-year contract extension mid-year to tie him to the club until at least the end of 2024." - Herald Sun

    This isn’t a player review but it’s about Bailey. Oh and… cuteness alert!


    A couple of months ago at Gosch’s, the boys were leaving the ground and were being asked for selfies and autographs. Bailey was walking just behind Tracc and I made a beeline in their direction, guernsey and sharpie in hand. He clearly assumed it was Tracc I was approaching. But I passed Tracc and stopped him and the look on his face was priceless! I asked him to sign my jumper and… he blushed! Bless his shy little heart. He signed it and I said, “you’re gonna have to get used to this, Bailey. It’s gonna be happening a lot.” And he blushed even harder, becoming a lovely shade of magenta.  🤭🤭🤭

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Carlton

      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.
