Beaten in the air, on the ground, in the ruck, down back. A really poor performance

Hunter needs a week off 

he's running harder than most

by that logic you'd drop oliver, too

This quarter alone has been such a let down, I expected a fierce response and it didn't happen.

    Problem is we never learn our lessons and drink our own bath water too much.

    JJ down over the ball and cleaned up high but apparently the bombers player wanted it more?

    Not a single bounce has gone our way. Forget it and move on.

    Should have put Gus on the middle earlier in the game when Oliver was being beaten.

    Gus was doing the first ever good defensive job of his life down back on Stringer. Tracc, Viney and the other mids had to lift

    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.

    Exposes everything fwd back and mid

    This should’ve been a percentage building win against a loser club. Instead we’ve [censored] the bed and no one is putting their hand up to try and stem the tide. This has been a game lost by poor leadership and laziness. Our worst loss since 2019-2020.

    The zero response is deafening.

    The whole group needs to have a good look at themselves. Folded like a cheap suit tonight.

    Classic Melkdumb, use your preferred foot

    Look it's a bad performance but people need to get a grip.

    Collingwood lost to West Coast's seconds last year.

    Geelong were 3-2 after 5 rounds and 4-3 after 7 last year.

    Richmond similar in 2019.

    60% inside efficiency for Essendon is disgusting. That is terrible for the best defence in the league.

    • 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.
