Great to see

I hope someone is looking after our oral and now visual history.

Every player from the 2021 premiership side should have their story of the day recorded plus the coaches of course. Like archives they can restrict their publication for say ten years but imagine a detailed interview with Norm Smith and Ron from 1964... not to mention a follow up in 1966

 

I loved this. Great idea for a series. Look forward to the next eps.

How lucky are we to have this man as our captain. The best captain in the AFL hands down.
Not just a genuine superstar, but the most empathetic, down to earth, relatable and likable character in the game. You would just love to play with him and for him.

I’d love this. Especially grand final day video recordings of the bench and coaches box. Lock it away for a decade or two (or three) and release it in full. Would be incredible to see how the whole process works whilst watching the game. 

Wow.  That was just so well done.  We are so fortunate to have had these two as captains and of course as players.  

That was a strange - video listening to a recount of an injury. I get the focus was mindset but still it was strange to talk about that specific moment and not something else that the average joe can relate to.

On the day Kozzi signs on, another stunning example of our ‘culture’. Authentic and brilliant from Max and Garry.


Okay, in 2021 the players were isolated and in a bubble and they managed to win the big one.  They did it. They all deserved it, the players, the footy department. A few lucky supporters got over there to see it happen.

The plan for the following year was that the players wanted to do it again back at the G for their family, friends and fans back home. Admirable, but for various reasons, did not manage to pull it off.

Change in plans. Forget the fans. Big Max wants to do it for his dad and family. I want the players to see this clip and to do it for Max. What an incredible inspirational leader.  With the right mindset they can beat anyone.

Everyone else will just come along for the ride. All aboard!

  • 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.
