I came to Thailand for spiritual enlightenment and I must say my stay in Bangkok has been wonderfully ..... err .... uplifting.

I have consulted my guru ( not Bob ) and I have been assured that the Demons will win today's encounter with the Dorks by 46 points.

Hope you werent wearing the budgie smugglers

    Even with 20/75 vision the dog could see THE BALL WASN’T TOUCHED!

    Need to move on.

    Though, given what happened to Adelaide yesterday and us, they need much better Tech, that can overrule umps.

    Kev, I still have dreams that Simon Eishold kicks his goal in the 1987 Prelim.

    Moving on isn’t my specialty.

    Hawks will come out hard. We just have to "cope" for 2 1/2 quartrs then put the foot down. 

    MFCSS is through the roof.

    I'm so traumatised by the their last goal, I cannot remember Simons shot on goal. Did it go through and not given?

    Anything less than a forty point win will not suffice.

    Big day for Max. Boys need to get it done.

    Plus with a few teams going into finals with a lot of wins behind them, we need some form as well.

    Hopefully Smith and Jvr work well together.

    Playing the old enemy again. Don't even like calling their name, use the Potter, "they, that should not be named"

    Get it done Dees.

    He was 11 metres out on a 30 degree angle. Absolute shank.

    The Hawks can have their moments (and have had them in recent weeks). They can also dip and put in poor performances (that is why they are 16th). Expecting a solid Dees win.

    If you don’t turn up today and choose to watch on tv instead (and you’re in Melbourne obviously), then shame on you. Final home game of the year. In the race for top 4. Captain Max playing his 200th. Weather is mild. 
    Don’t be the sort of Melbourne supporter everyone laughs about. Turn up, make noise, and let’s bury those Hawks!

    Has junior footy finished as well? From memory it normally ends late August.

    i’m looking forward to the second half 

    i’m not looking forward to the first half. tight scrappy low scoring anxiety inducing 

    FYI Fritsch is doing drills at Goschs paddock as we speak. In some agility drills he looks to be moving with no issues at all.

    This is what I’m hoping for. For every 1-2 good wins, they put in a shocker.

    After the game Northey walked to that goal square to see if that surface was substandard.

    Feeling a bit ill today but last home game of the season will do my darndest to get there and distance appropriately.

    There in 2 

    The way to deal with a young team like this is to hit them harder around the contest than they have been getting hit recently. Second last round I reckon they could put the queue in the rack if we make it very uncomfortable for them from the jump.

    If we let them play the way they're wanting to play this could go very badly for us.

    • 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.
