    • Demonland changed the title to Brett Ratten Sacked by the Saints
     

    Could have happened 1 month ago and King might have been snagged. Damn. But 4 coaches in 1 season is not good for footy.. become a circus.

    Debacle. I think the list manager should perhaps go.
    Yze will get it, but does he want it?

    Geoff Walsh doing his best to amplify the irrelevancy of the club.

    What I do not understand this. I just read it online. This makes no sense especially coming after the trade period. 

    I mean the new coach will come in and inherit a list he had no say in.

    Ratten was a Hawthorn assistant coach for 4 of the 8 years currently under the review. Might have been involved in some nasty decision making. Maybe STK board have done this pre-emptive to the review findings.

    Wow, from a review?

    Most likely the you efforts between games as a major reason. 

    But out of the blue, not even a leak before hand.

    • 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.
