The misuse of this word, especially when describing footy players, is so irritating. I’m assuming they mean “lackadaisical”?

Lions much better than Carlton tonight. They've beaten them in all areas. Hard to see Carlton making top 4 based on this game.

Intensity at, over and around the ball missing.  No run.

When they haven't got the pill it's very much the same.  Pressure is way off.

Blues have regressed so far this season

How bad must be the Eagles be if Carlton is dishing up this 💩 tonight.

And on a totally unrelated note I had no idea we had the best % in the comp.

Before round 1, I picked Carlton for 9th. Apart from Weitering, their defence is full of NQR's. If they can't stop Hipwood (who I once rated but now consider him less than average) they won't stop many good scoring teams.

I feel like Hipwood gets off the chain 3-4 times a year because their forward line is stacked with potentially damaging players. In an ordinary side I reckon he’d struggle.

Have to say Harry McKay is one of the laziest forwards, just watch how far he trails behind people when the opposition has the ball, and even when the contest is near, he is a witches hat! 

Also Carlton are too scared to take a risk into the corridor, everything is out wide and down the wings, and Brisbane are just waiting, dumb football.

Maybe Carlton won't make the finals.

Oh the irony of them missing by half a game after their draw with Tigers.

Well it is a big word, even though it was not the appropriate one - lackadaisical

Carlton need a coach. Voss might have been a great player but he is not a coach.

Voss, Hird, Buckley in the same boat.

At the ground with a Blues supporting mate.

Saad is clueless, deer in headlights stuff. Blues defence sloppy and lazy (mids not getting back fast enough). McKay is useless once the ball hits the deck.

Their movement out of the backline is constantly to the flanks and wings (where have I seen that before).

Don’t know if Lions are good enough for a serious tilt, but Carlton sure ain’t.

Carlton will be out of the eight by the end of this round and I can not see them getting back in. I just [censored] because I changed my tip from The Lions to the Blues just before the game started

Ikr, my gut had picked Lions.  I'm running the tips for myself and a friend, and she asked if it was smart going against the betting odds in favour for Carlton.  Changed us both to the blues and the regret is strong 😂

Richo is really just about as dumb as BT - the entire commentary is moronic bloke banter.  Unfortunately this season I have been unable to sync digital, direct or AFL app radio commentary.

"If Carlton get a goal they will be 27 points down - they are now 33 down, BT".  WOW.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
