    Once again a late call by the ump means we play on and take the “advantage” which turns out to be the opposite of to advantage. FFS I hate that rule

    First qtr thoughts. 
    Trac looks off.

    Fritta doesn’t look like he has missed. 
    we have been sloppy but got better as the qtr went on.

    Going by 1st qtr no idea still why Turner replaced Thommo.

    Melksham and Kozzie look lively.

    I want to see how many minutes Trac has spent on ball this quarter. My guess is less than 5

    This has the stench of the AFL doing everything they can to get a final played in Sydney.

    Yep, there's already a load of smoke beaming up from AFL House.

    Petracca continuing on his poor form from last week.

    He's checked out since Oliver is back, very worrying

    Why not call it back when it’s obvious there was no advantage. Should be in the rule book

    Boweys form not great heading into finals 

    Surely Hibberd comes in for Bowey & Hunter’s possessions are ineffective & his tackles are like powder puffs

    It's a joke. Such an infuriating rule. E

    Often either turns out not to he an advantage, or in the event every just stops, an unfair disadvantage to the team the free has been paid against.

    I wonder when a side will man up after a point against sides, shut it down instead of letting it out.  If you look down the ground after a swans point every player is up around the midfield area, pull players back have less congestion and allow players to run onto it or over the back.

    • 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.
