Very easy task this week:  only a page and a bit to wade through.  Unsurprisingly their few fans are not that engaged.

  • I'm not saying i'd sell my soul (if i had one) for a win…Buuuuuuuut....
  • Finally had good communication and run and carry against Richmond.  Demons will be a totally different task.
  • Our midfield will need to be on fire and our forward line will need to click as well.
  • If we bring our third quarter for the whole game we'll win.
  • Unlike the previous 2, this isn't a must win for me, but we can't be carved up.  unlucky for melbourne playing such an inform team like the suns.
    • Ha just their luck coming up against such an in form formidable opponent.
  • Let’s keep the loss under 10 goals, dees will be coming in hot after pumping a poor kangas team
  • If we could some how pinch this one, it would be huge, especially with WC the following week and getting us to 4-4
  • Melbourne are getting a bruise-free training drill before next week. 
  • Saturday arvo 4.30.  At least if it's thrashing the rest of the footy world will have forgotten about it by lunchtime Sunday if not 10pm Saturday

    I won't be around much to do these for the rest of May so if someone would like to take over these reports, you are welcome.

    @Queanbeyan DemonI think this was your gig before I hijacked it...

    It’s truly telling how little engagement this club has after so long in the competition.

    Anyways our first quarter > their third quarter 

    Take this lightly and we will lose. Come out with the same mindset we did against Norf and it’ll be a 10 goal smashing.

    This is a fair point.  GCS seem to always give us a hard time when we go there.  We can't be complacent.

    And yet I don't think we've lost to them since 2014.

    I think it works in our favour that this game is at 4:30 and not at night, it will be less slippery and dewy which we struggle with.

    Having said that, I haven't checked the weather forecast and for all I know it could be pounding down with rain

    forecast no rain, light winds 22/23c at start of game, 20/21c at end of game.  sounds good conditions

    I think those comments are balanced, and will add two things. Be very interested to see how many frees Matty Rowell will get along with Lucretia and Is i hope we get Razor again.

    Autocorrect for Lukosius? If so, your device is impressively refined.

    Rowell vs Clarrie and Viney for contested possessions will be fun to watch.

    "Where's the road out of here?"

     

    What they’re saying at Nerang Broadbeach Road, doesn’t have the same ring to it 🤣

    • 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.
