8goal Adelaide 1st qtr.
The 2nd and 3rd quarter was some of the best footy I'd ever seen us play till then.
Then we choked in the last.
A very Melbourne game.
Talk about roller coaster of emotions.
I was devo.

I'll always remember watching Trapper interviewed after the game.
He was the happiest loser I'd ever seen.

 


 

We didn’t actually choke…we were spent and had nothing left to give after quarters 2 and 3. We had players throwing up at 3/4 time from the effort given up to that point. 68 point turnaround from quarter time to just before 3/4 time. Will never forget the emotional roller coaster.

    Our draw against the Swans R1 2011 is currently on Foxtel. Bennell just kicked a ripper.

    The 2002 Semifinal vs Adelaide was probably the craziest game I've been to, even though we lost. Travis Johnstone and that 3rd quarter were something else.

    Will also go down as the night I got incredibly drunk in a pub in Adelaide post game (using a fake ID) and a Port fan tried hitting on me and I told him to [censored] off. Good times.

    My memory of the 87 PF is not a good one and it’s one match Fox Footy play too much. 

    It's 88not 87.

    • 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.
