    JVR to play at his home soil. 4 goals for sure 🔥🔥🔥.

    I imagine he will invite all the people from his hometown 😆

    IN: Kysaiah Pickett

    OUT (to be sub): Spargo or ANB

    What ? Spargo & ANB we’re great today.

    Pickett for Brown

    Brown Out, Pickett in.

    Would like to see Viney out for Howes, but not sure Jack would get dropped being captain. I feel he is probably our biggest watch over the next few weeks. Disposal poor, decision making poor. JJ is a much better 3rd midfield option and Koz back will squeeze Jack out.

    Picketts round 1 game was miles better than any games these 2 have put together in 2023

    Absolutely no idea what changes they make, a couple of thoughts: 

    IN: Pickett
    OUT: Sparrow

    JJ, Gus to have more mins inside

    IN: Pickett
    OUT: Hibberd

    Jordon to have stints at half back or Petty back to defence? 

    Really can't see them dropping BBB

    Kozzie in hard to drop anyone from today's game. Someone is going to be stiff. Melk junk time supersub may be left out

    Eagles players going down like flies.

    McGovern, Cripps, Shuey and Witherdan all unlikely next week. 
     

     

    Let's get the Casey boys for a nice Perth visit and rest our AFL team 😆

    The season is a marathon, not a sprint. We need to peak when it matters. We're not losing next week, so why not start rotating the list a little bit and giving a few blokes a rest next week. Will refuel the batteries and ensure we can go the distance. We have the depth and need to use it. It's what hurt us last season in the end.

    let's wait and see what the medical report is on sideshow bald first

    if he's out i still like our structure with three talls up front - sideshow, roo, and petty - so if one of them is out then plugger mac gets another opportunity more than likely

    pickett is obviously an in, most likely for melksham, with one of jj or sparrow - probably jj - sliding to the sub

    Why is the first post of this thread the first post of this thread?

    • Haha 1

    Brown should have a week off regardless of whether he’s injured or not. Another week to look at Petty and JVR up forward and we can always bring Tmac back. 
    We are heading into a softer patch of the draw and we need to take opportunities to rest our older and most important players.

    100% agree. The 3rd tall is the Ruck pinch hitter. 

    We also need to get some games into Turner, should be our 3rd tall of Petty plays up forward.

    Kosi for Hibberd. Petty to go back. Another possible out is Sparrow (just 10 touches) but I feel like he was vital in getting centre bounce clearance momentum back.

    No way can Harmes replace JJ. Jordon was immense today.

    Think melksham is a lock for sub until he hits 100mfc games, he's on 97 now.

    why would anyone give AF if he gets to 100? he already got to 200 games

    Was BBB injured? Please don't tell me it's the knee

    • 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.
