It's what happens on the day that counts. You can talk up a team as much as you like.

We can't win a flag with our fwd line. Tmac is cooked. Bbb is injured a lot and Jvr is just starting. We are missing a big proven quality Chf. 

 

Too many of our boys  at the ball drop ... clear out of the leading lanes and let the forwards jump at it.


I have no idea what is going on with our structure right now.

JVR popping up at full back?

Is Grundy injured?

 

How many times have we kicked it to a pack of 1 of us, 3 of them in our F50 and they STILL win the ball at ground?

    They are working much harder

    Players jogging off as we attack forward. Ridiculous 

    Disgraceful performance. Grundy is being smashed, the defence is being torn apart. May, Petty and Thommo are all having shockers

    Oliver is unsighted, Sparrow - is he even playing? - 

    TMac was straight up kneed in the back by Draper in a ruck contest - play on. He should be rubbed out.

    This is truly a pathetic display

     


    5 uncontested marks to go from end to end, this is 2019 esque. 


    Game over

    Just now, leave it to deever said:

    There is something in this.

    But we've also been outworked right from the get go

     

    Switching off. Horrid. 10 goal loss written all over it.

    • 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.
