The PREGAME Thread will replace the CHANGES Thread and will contain any discussion relating to the next match including Changes, Ticketing & any other related discussion for the upcoming match.

Who comes in and who goes out?

Lever is under an injury cloud. Disco Turner? Tomlinson?

Do we play our best available 23 again or give some of the kids a last shot before Round 1?

    21 hours ago, whatwhat say what said:

    yep, best again

    i imagine it'll be a squad of 28 allowed to play?

    I don't think it will be our best team. It wasn't last year, or the year before.

    In both years we had our best 22 on the first practice match.

    Unless there are injuries I suspect we saw the round one team today (with the exception of jvr).

    Melksham might be an in perhaps.but Chandler would probably have to come out, and I'd prefer Chandler.

    Hopefully those who were watching today play next week

    If Lever is out then I would like to see Disco. Plays more like Lever than Hibberd does.

    I can't believe you mentioned Tomlinson woeful performance today.

    Will be interesting if Jacob van Rooyen plays, especially as he may have possibly injured his hamstring?

    Fingers crossed I am wrong on that.

    If they lose, will their members be microwaving the membership before the season starts I wonder 🤔🫢

    Can someone please confirm the ticketing situation for this game. I thought I read free entry but, if so, I assume you would need to get there pretty early before thousands of Richmond fans descend on the ground.

    Jason Castagna wont be playing, as the 26 year old surprisingly retired from AFL football, effective immediately.

    Sheesh,  only 26? Felt like he was around for decades, good on him though. Triple premiership player in 100 odd games.

    This recent incident on the rub down bench convinced him it was time to call it quits.

    I'll be making the relatively short journey to watch this game.

    Anyone know if they stand will be available or will it just be standing only?

    He's no Ian Ridley but that's a pretty good run.

    I never picked him as being unusually wise but you have to give him credit for getting off the Titanic at Cherbourg.

    • 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.
