Assume they are just guesstimating like I did a few minutes ago when I updated the injury list on Demonland.

ย  PLAYER INJURY LENGTH
OLIVER Clayton.png Clayton Oliver Hamstring Test
MCDONALD Tom.png Tom McDonald Ankle 1 Week
TURNER Kye.png Kye Turner Groin 1 Week
FRITSCH Bayley.png Bayley Fritsch Foot 2-3 Weeks
TURNER Daniel.png Daniel Turner Hand 2-3 Weeks
PETTY Harrison.png Harrison Petty Foot TBC
HOWES Blake.png Blake Howes Hand Season
SESTAN Oliver.png Oliver Sestan Elbow Season

Petty is a big loss as he was finding his rhythm, but thatโ€™s afl footy, we should have back Oliver , t Mac , Fritsch available by finals time. Though not sure would they need game time @ Casey?

Communication from the club re: injuries this season has been putridย 

Except for when Gawn went down and the internet went into meltdown and we got an update on a Sunday.ย

all that just "from the vision"?ย  ย sheez some of these guys can sure spin things

I'd be very surprised if he played again this year. I'd be surprised and relieved if he was good to go at theย start ofย  preseason.


None of us gave a $hite when Turner went down.... we don't 'deserve' to have the knowledge considering its personal information.

It's quite the entitled stance.

We seem to have 'finally' nicely gone along the 7 stages of grieving re: communicating Clayton's injury... it'd be nice for supporters to manage themselves for any other injury going forward.

I was only aware of 5 stages ๐Ÿ˜‰maybe waiting ..and then anticipating the worst see the other two?ย 


Probably hasn't been expressed enough but I'm really feeling for Harry. He works incredibly hard at both ends of the ground and this would be really frustrating for him right now.

Richo saying season over on C7ย 


I'd be happy for the club to keep things under wrap as far as possible if there is any chance of him playing this year. Our competitors would have more to think about if they don't know who may be in the team in the finals.

Please never play that dump of a ground ever again ๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ˜ก


So I missed this bit on 7 News. Did Richo actually say "season over", because if not, he's still in the frame, and it would be logical management to keep the press off our backs and Petty's if we simply said it was a bad injury.

Are you equating turner to petty. Petty is pivotal to our flag chances. Supporters are on tensor hooksย

  • 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 ... itโ€™s time to discuss this weekโ€™s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliverโ€™s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line โ€ฆ 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.
