Haven't seen us take a bolter like that since Clayton Oliver.

Touching wood, shedding a tear for not getting Curtin who has been my stable draft-crush all along.

I'm devastated we didn't look at Curtin

    Wow that seems like a real surprise. I feel like Curtin or O’Sullivan made the most sense, trust the guys who get paid the big bucks I guess

    Of course we looked at him.  We decided that Windsor was better.

    Have some faith in our recruiting staff FFS.

    Clearly he and his family are ecstatic about coming to the Dees. Daniel Curtin on the other hand, not so enthusiastic about going to the crows, 😆

    Ahhh no I find that difficult we have 3 or 4 at Casey who won't realise their draft selections in my view

    By the look of it, WC wasn't that interested in Curtin either. Certainly not for their F1.

    Serious Toumpas/Weideman vibes with this pick. Not impressed.

    Thrilled we didn't jump for Curtain

    Windsor our most uncontested pick since Toumpas. Let's hope history doesn't repeat.

    Imagine being drafted to Essendon and on fox footy they just compared him to Jake stringer.

    He might push Jake out of the team.

    Can anyone explain why we couldn't pick Mac Andrew as a Melbourne academy player last year, when gold coast are allowed to pick 2 academy players in the top 10 this year?

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Carlton

      It's Game Day and Clarry's 200th game and for anyone who hates Carlton as much as I do this is our Grand Final. Go Dees.

    • 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.
