OUT: Schach
IN: Brown

Suspect it'll be Petty (pending concussion protocols) rather than Brown but would prefer the experience of BBB

    Ideally I'd have.

    In: Brown, Petty

    Out: Schache, Hibberd

    Petty to play back. Hibberd rested.

    I'd prefer Laurie to Harmes but much of a muchness when it comes to the sub.

    Pretty moot until Casey's game tomorrow though.

    Wonder if Maysie will come under any scrutiny for his hit on Coleman Jones?

    Think BBB will need to be considered.

    Not a chance… he hit the ball first and the player ran into his forearm.

    Great post. 

    Like the idea of resting hibbo. 

    Sun's aren't the easy beats that they've been in the past but should be a win if the boys front up with the right attitude. 

    I know Spargo is rated highly by the FD but I can't see an obvious reason to get him in based on tonight's from

    Petty or Brown/TMac for Schache. 

    If Dunstan plays well again he may get the sub spot at worst. Or maybe Jordon’s spot? I felt Jordon was poor tonight. 

    Not sure what we do with Spargo if he’s fit.

    No Touk. If we don’t [censored] this in I’d be very very very disappointed

    I think Petty for Schache is likely, even though I'd like to see it as just Petty for Hibberd, and Petty going back.

    Spargo is a potential sub option.

    no guarantees on petty given that they gave spargo some extra time to recover, but you'd think they'd be the two likely ins

    i still really like the notion of the tall defensive premiership trio of may-lever-petty being back together, but it's hard to see how unless pig is sore and misses with his achilles, in which schache may hold his spot forward unless sideshow bald or plugger mac turn it on in the vfl

    Goody said post match that all indications are that Petty will get thru the protocol fine. Must have been a mild concussion and he must be feeling good.

    I can see Hibbo being managed soon.

    Yep, and Rowell has had an underwhelming season so far. We've got the advantage in the guts.

    The Demons are heading back on the road for the fourth time this season to take on the Gold Coast Suns at Heritage Bank Stadium in a bid to win their third game on the trot. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The most important thing to look at here is the weather report. Last time we headed up north for a game, we felt the heat and had trouble handling the footy. Let’s hope the team gets up there in time to acclimatize and get a decent training run on the surface of the ground.

    My Weather Ap forecast for next Saturday is sunny and 23 degrees.

    Great opportunity for his old mates to get in Mac Andrew's ear and bring him back to rightful home... Casey!

    • 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.
