Looks like if it’s any ducking at al that results over the shoulders contact it’s not a free. 

Understand the need to prevent ducking, but sad to see it applied where it's legitimately just a player picking up a ground ball

    Nervous defensively. Petty a little off. Doggies sharper around the ball. it’ll be a close game I reckon

    Until it’s a Doggies player then there is a special clause in the rules of the game.

    We look more dynamic on the fast break but they are very good in close with those quick hands…be a close contest all night I reckon

    Feels as if we gifted the dogs their goals. It doesn't look like they are doing much to keep it close.

    If Harmes is tagging Bont it ain't working.

    Grundy's hit outs are not really to advantage.

    Max bog.

    Kozzy dangerous.

    Lever good.

    Clarry, Langdon quiet.

    Nice goal by Tommy Sparrow.

    Pickett should have passed to Spargo in perfect position, but selfishly shot for goal and missed.    Also Riv could have kicked out to Spargs all alone, but kicked to a contest instead.

    Clearances leveled up bit we managed to hold together down back. Just the 2 Dogs marks inside 50.

    Free kick Bulldogs. Wtf. 

    Have seen a few bad ones in my time. That’s in the top 5!

    Rivers seems to be lacking confidence in his short kicking, he'd rather kick a bomb every single time.

    I think it’s going to be one of those rule adjustments with frustratingly unintended consequences…

    Tell me again how May isn’t the glue that holds us together down back. 
    Also please put someone better on Bont.

    • 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.
