    Why not? Give him every chance to play. He is obviously very close 

    He is the best defender in the Competition

    May will be in the coaches box again.

    Not concerned about this. Tommo was good last week and probably unlucky to be dropped.

    Happy for May to take all the time he needs to be 100%

    Grundy is the main man tonight. Lot of teams have to get used to him in the forward line.

    Thanks very much for you help mate. Only tickets we could get are top their but above you guys at least, gate 8.

     

    By red time in the last they'll all have left so I can bring kids down the bottom 😂

    Given you’re at the game, I’ve got the pork belly on for you.

    You really think that the Lions coaching dept will be in a mad panic when they see Tomlinson run out instead of May?

    Every coach will tell you that late changes have zero impact on the opposition's game plan.

    Every coach would plan for and around May. Him not playing will change their plans.

    They were never going to risk him. I thought it was laughable that they’ll let our third most important player, aged 30, only have a week off with a calf strain. 
    If we win tonight I also don’t think they’ll risk him next week. It’s a very very long season.

    Don’t agree. 

    He will play when he is ready, whether we win this week or not, whether we’re flying or struggling. 

    For one, next week he can hold Buddy goalless for a third straight match.

    I wonder if they looked back on that final to see what Brisbane did and what we did wrong.

    Also wonder if they had a look to see what port did right to thrash them last week

    Don't worry folks. Tommo is an able replacement. Our system will hold firm.

    Goody spoke of that during the week.

    I mean of course they won’t risk him if he isn’t right. But I think if we win and he is right to go they might still choose to give him one more week just to be extra extra cautious.

    Such a nice feeling knowing we’ve got Tommo as a replacement.

    The club’s depth is going to pay dividends come finals.

    When May is ready to go, he will play.

    Next week Lance is going to play..

    I’m nervous. Not going to lie. 
    Brisbane are a hell of a lot better than they showed last week. They are also a much much better team than the Dogs.

    If we are as good as we think we are, we win this in a canter.

    • 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.
