Welcome to the big leagues. 

An excellent education for the young guy provided Dustbin doesn’t do too much damage

Interesting to hear comments on structure

Sounds as though they are resting Gawn/Grundy up forward rather than on the bench.

How is the Brown and the resting ruckman working out. Last season Gawn was excellent early season at protecting Brown's run for the mark

Brown all at sea - like Sampson after his haircut.

    I am unsure how much effort the Tiges are potting up at times, but our system between wing and inside F50 is looking as good as it has ever in Goodwin's time as coach.

    Nibbler, Sparrow, Harmes and Spargo are all showing serious gut running.  

    Surely the Tiges are not this rubbish?

    Our backline is epic.

    You know what I've noticed today. We aren't just bombing it in our forward line or into the pocket. We are lowering the eyes & passing it lace out to a leading forward.

    Slamming players into the turf after a mark in a practice game. Lovely Richmond 🙄

    Gawn’s goal kicking is a genuine 20/80 😂

    Honestly you never know what's going to happen when Gawn goes for goal. I just see it as a bonus when he kicks them

    How many shots between gawn and Grundy? Have to be 10 nearly

     


    Richmond are potential ‘Premiership Contenders’ according to Gerard Healy. I think he has said that at least 3 times on Foxtel during this match. What is he smoking? 🤣

    Definitely more measured with the ball movement. 

    What's with all the repeat posts?

    Good to see we have allowed Richmond to have two membership vans at our home game, at our home facility. No signage for us. But hey, none of that matters apparently 

    There’s a demon shop next to the Richmond shop?

    lines here are massive tho, lots of cash left on the table for beer and food sales 


    How was that a Gawn 3rd goal? I though spargo kicked it into the post?

    I  quite often get repeat posts in a game day thread but today is another level.

    Still when you're winning I quite like reading things 2 or 3 times

    anyone catch Van Rooyen’s game earlier? Couldn’t have been any worse than BBB so far..?

    If Fritta is out, why wouldn't they play him?

    • 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.
