Dad and I ventured down there today, and McVee was excellent today...that kid is an absolute gun...took on Trac 3 times in a row, and beat him on all three....Trac let out a few swears after...

Thank you.

    Yeah well, coz I greatly respect and love Clarry Choo Choo and the sauce, of info in hindsight better to keep my mouth shut, for a change! But nothing sinister I can say!🤐

    Fair enough, mate. Hopefully it's on the positive side of the ledger.

    You see I bl@@dy told youse all. Don't recruit any Western Stralians. Even from the middle of nowhere. Go home factor has struck already. Makes Jackson look like a career Demon. 😎

    Thanks for the report @picket fence.. certainly appreciated for the likes of myself who live in a different state and can't attend.

    I'm interested around your comment with Josh Schache? Does he playing the roaming CHF role using his high endurance levels or is he poaitioned as as the stay at home forward? Then obviously playing as the 2nd ruck role as well which we'll need for Max. 

    Also, how was Ollie Sestan during that session?

    Thanks Dazz it appears that it is a combo of both BUT stay at home he is covering a lot of territory running up the ground even as far as almost CHB before sprinting back to forward line. If this is the plan, it might, just might Click!

    Solid and relaible as always, also Bill Laurie showed a bit today as did Jake Bowey. Sheesh competition for places will be at an all time high with the quality we are assembling!

    Thanks for the report PF, but you must have missed the Demonland community memo - apparently we have zero depth and 2024 is already a write-off.

    January footy media!

     

    They made a story up about Salem (midfield push) as an excuse to a) bring Clayton into the story and b) show that salem has an injury (because they couldn’t  just say ‘he has an injury concern’ because the club would’ve said they have zero concern).

    was he with the backline or midfield group?

    Many thanks again, Mr Fence.  🐍

    From the glowing report I can see the only reason to place bets for 2024 would be as to who will be runners up in our GF slaughter. 🙄

    I like the sounds of a team with Yze, Brown, Viney, White, Woey in it. Don’t suppose Gaz, Ox or Neita  had male footy progeny at all?

    Lyon has 3 adult sons that couldn't or wouldn't make the grade.

    Neita has 2 daughters probably both aged under 10.

    Ox has a teenage son (and daughter I think). Does anybody know if he's jumping up the ranks or even plays footy?

    • 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.
