Judging from the comments I have read today it appears that Turner should get a go in front of Tommo

    I doubt we will see Tomlinson in the firsts again. Or TMac

    the up and coming on ball brigade are struggling but our obsession with boundary line play makes it tough when it comes to forward delivery.

    Should have won but it wouldn't mean much

    One thing I would agree with the commentary on today.

    Tommy looks like he's running in treacle.

    It was a bad day for most. No need to stick the boots in, and write anyone off. We will need 3-4 of those guys to gain confidence and play a roll if we are going to go deep in 2023.

    So you think it was a good game then, and there was no negatives or do only look at the good points?

    We really missed those hard bodied and experienced VFL players, Munro, Buntine, and Baldi.

    Wow, BBB not taking his opportunity from straight out infront, though not the only one.

    We have a few AFL listed players who will have to lift/develop their game, if they want to be AFL standard. Jefferson, Adams, AMW, D.Smith, Farris-White. 

    Some terrible field kicking and missed opportunities killed us.

    Nearly stole it.

    Why were Buntine & Baldi left out?

    The Araldite (White + Munro) back will make a big diff next week.

    He was somewhere between solid & good - nowhere near outstanding.

    I thought D.Turner turned the game and momentum, by those intercepts in the third. Played a good game in a dysfunctional backline. They couldn't zone well as they let the opponents get to the ball first and very few attacking moves that came off, (couldn't find a corridor).

    Tomlinson needs some confidence, his leadership and structural set up down back appeared to suffer, as well as his poor decision making, slipping over and switching off. He usually dominates and supports D.Turner very well at this level.

    I always look at the bright side. It’s one of the reasons everybody loves me (the other 2 reasons are that I’m drop dead gorgeous, and that I’m very humble).

    Should we recruit Bell as a back up ruckman ?

    Played a good 1st half, and I thought the same thing, but left in the second. Consistency is needed, especially at the level he is playing.

    Give it a [censored] rest, will you. If there’s more than one way to say something, without exception you’ll choose the most belligerent, abrasive way of saying it. It’s unpleasant and unnecessary.

    So I gather, seeing you did not answer the question you're not sure either? also I tell it the way I see it if you don't like that block me it's simple not going to bother me.

    I love you for that first reason, which is good since I think you’re full of [censored] re the other reasons. 😁

    Good summary.

    Yeah true. But in my defence it’s very hard to be humble when you look this good.

    Agree, and it also showed why we can't play both in the same team at senior level.

    How many marks did brown take and his other stats inc T Mac … I brown kicked 4?behinds do you would say he got his hands on the footy

    • 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.
