    Nothings changed from last year. Too often we don’t turn up with intensity.

    poor half last week. Let the swans back in and were lucky to win the margin we did.

    We just didn't turn up. It's a repeat of the lions game.

    It's no excuse but to play 3 out of your first 5 games interstate isn't great scheduling. 

    Petty not the same player this year and we have had May out then Lever. Toomos been good but like so many today's has had a shocker.

    As long as Tmac doesn't get another gig I'll be happy.

    Big heads I'm over this nonsense.  Back to losing games we should not.  Goodwin your too forgiving of bad performances.  I'm really angry that they are devoid of leadership without Max and Lever.

    Just turned up, can someone tell me what happened to Spargo?

     

    Ducked into a tackle and got concussed.

    Petty finally influencing the game, lots of strong intercepts this quarter

    Not sure how it comes across on the tv but at the ground the team and the way they are playing is unrecognisable. Just every aspect of our game is appalling . To simplify it..every single thing for them is going right & everything for us is going wrong

    We aren’t even tackling

    It's like going back in time.
    And of course against the forken drug cheats.
    My god.

    Still feel like we're a team of front runners.
    All wonderful when things are going our way but useless and incompetent when they're not.

    This is up there with the Brisbane game 

    2 of our worst games in 3 years in the last 5 weeks, why is our form so up and down

    It's worst than that. It exposes our fwd line issues. Having Max back will help but unless Bbb stars for the rest of the year we are in trouble.

    Big time. Could’ve gone top of the ladder with a win. Now we’ll likely drop to 6th and be amongst a big group currently fighting for 4th-9th spot.

    Very disappointing day for the club.

    • 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.
