Smith forward

Agree. We will need the extra smarts out the back today, and a little X factor in the goal square.

    Chill. We are good. Our defence is elite. They have spent many tickets. We will be OK

    So much at stake. Need to win the football game, plain and simple.

    Salem has had our second most disposals and every one looked like he was panicking.

    People are bagging JJ but he is at least running hard and making position. 
     

    Blues have 8 of the top 10 possession getters.

    Sparrow has had 4 possessions and turned two over for a massive 28 meters gained, 1 tackle, JJ has 10, 60% eff, 2 tackles 150meters game but JJ is the problem here for some. 
     

    If we don’t lift intensity up quite a lot they will steam roll us in the second half.

    Right in this game when we absolutely shouldn't be.

    Carlton playing as good a footy as they can and we are playing average... yet we're only down by 2 points!

    Get some players to lift and we got this.

    I don't think we're playing average. They are just all over it. We've taken our chances. They need to put us away.

    JJ has been much better than Sparrow who has 4 touches at 50% two turnovers, 1tackle 28 meters gained. I’d sub him before JJ.

    ANB could've gone deep to a contest then.  Instead tries to thread the needle through heavy traffic.  The distance was too far, inviting the intercept.

    Poor decision there from such an experienced player.  Turnover.... goal.

    That’s insulting to call that given what they didn’t call in the first half

    Sports entertainment these days.

    I don’t know how many times Hewitt has been caught and just dropped it. 

    External review needed 

    I wonder if anyone has any connections to any big 4 consultancy firms who could readily assist? 🔎🔎🕵️‍♀️🕵️‍♀️

    • 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.
