Gawn - an amazing return

Viney - 4 solid quarters 

Grundy - was almost important 

May - better second half

Lever - not always convincing 

Bowey - has been better

Rivers - a  solid game

McVee - was seemingly overawed 

Hibberd- some vital tackles

Langdon - better second half

Brayshaw - often careless disposals 

Hunter - some important touches

Oliver - eventually got going

Petracca - not as explosive 

van Rooyen - incredible last quarter

Sparrow - impressive tagging game

 Neal-Bullen - played his role

Pickett - another disappointing game

Chandler - took his chances

Jordon - a workmanlike performance

Heck, the match I watched I thought McVee had a better than average game and certainly held his own.

joeboy must’ve been a jam at the ‘G after the final siren glad you’ve successfully negotiated the traffic /public transport imbroglio to get home.

Mostly in concordance with your player analysis except you’re too kind to Steven May and too harsh on Angus Brayshaw*. And Judd McVee looks to be fairly cool under pressure.

* I get the “Whiplash”.


Brayshaw went at 95%. Come on mate 

I didn’t give him my votes but don’t underestimate Judd McVee’s contribution today. 

 

Too kind to... Kossi Howe

Some crucial touches when the game was in the balance.

Lever - multiple brain farts

Chandler - what a beauty

Viney - full beast mode

That’s all I’ve got. Lucky the family were home last night otherwise I’d be buying a new TV today 🤣

I think the anti May analysis of this game is a bit tough. From watching the replay, I noticed that Riewoldt was a long way away from May in some of his goals...I thought May was solid.

That is the problem Mon Our No 1 was AWAY from Jack. His job too scrap/ scrap and spoil and punch away and put body on body. Ie No pressure from Steve on Jack.

Thought Steve's last quarter was positive and Jake also improved. 

Just saying, but Laurie in 7 minutes, had half the number of possessions of Kozzie for his full game.

Seen May play much better footy. Set a very high standard in recent seasons with two All-Australian blazers. Agree his last quarter was more solid but Riewoldt and Co had physically dropped off. 

At this stage of the season there is plenty of room for improvement, amongst the individuals who make up the team including Steven May.

Angus Brayshaw is the type of footballer most coaches and players love to have in their sides. Courageous, combative and committed to the team success. Over his career he has provided that in spades. From overcoming earlier serious concussion issues, to running a close third to a surprise Brownlow medal. To the pure grit and determination of his Grand Final performance in Perth in '21. Where he was flying the flag deep into the Doggies' second into third quarter momentum swing.

His recent performances continue to to show that determination and resolve by accounting for Jake Stringer against Essendon despite the loss. I thought his performance against Richmond was similarly praiseworthy, absorbing considerable physical pressure, but continuing to repulse Tiger forward forays as the game tightened up. Whilst still being able to deliver quality ball by hand or foot to a team mate.

  • 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.
