We have been sloppy but will tighten up.

    West Coast's mids are playing shoulder to shoulder with ours in the ball ups. I'd like to see Grundy tap it outside that 3-5 metre zone and have our mids run onto it.

    May needs to be banned from kicking in until he takes better options. They have to spread the talls and kick to the one Barrass isn’t on. It’s not rocket science 


    People seem to be disappointed based on some silly idea we should win by 100. We will win by 10 goals at minimum. That’s plenty. Who cares. We did this against sides in 2021. We even lost to Adelaide then. We were a good side then. This whole good sides do this and that speak is nonsense based on fantasies and wishful thinking. But hey, we still might win by 100. The eagles will fade.

    My best players include Yeo and Barrass. Worried now about Petty. Been on Petty watch for 2 weeks now. Hope its nothing

    Petty not doing a lot up forward today

    Our inconsistency is frustrating. We turn it up against the swans, and now struggling against the WAFL eagles. It’s momentum killing stuff, even if we eek out a win. Hope we wake up and realise we have to earn a win. 


    No key forwards can do anything about kicks to their opponents. That Fritsch kick that missed Petty a  classic example 


    It’s like we are waiting for it to click instead of out working them. This game is still a danger right now.

    • 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.

      It's Game Day and Clarry's 200th game and for anyone who hates Carlton as much as I do this is our Grand Final. Go Dees.

    • 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.
