Conceded 7 goals in a row. 

and this is against a supposed rebuilding side missing its entire starting midfield and #1 forward

not great


Been impressed with Billings. Clean on hands, pretty accurate inside 50 and has stood up well in tackles.

Getting killed on the turnover

About to say the same thing.

Need to clean up the ball movement.

These turnovers are yuck - unfortunately this team continues to really struggle with physical pressure 

 

Richmond just cleaner by foot, they are controlling the ball.

I think you need to look at it in presepective though. Lot of young kids and are not as clean as the Tigers on the turnover.


Well we looked good for about 15 minutes before Richmond showed up. 

 

No idea why we didn't have a crack at Jacob Koschitzke in the trade period either

    Sparrow kick going inside 50 leads to a turnover and they go back up the other end with a few uncontested kicks - that’s been the story of this game since about 15 mins into the first qtr

    Getting slaughtered on the transition once again.

    Nothing has changed.

    and not putting any pressure on turnover

    they're going from d50 to f50 with no one putting a scintilla of effort against em

    Watching on TV. Could see Trac on his haunches and looking a little bit uncomfortable early in this 2nd term and haven’t seen him since.
     

    Can anyone at the game see him?

     

    Update: He has come back on around 24:00 and moving fine

    Update


    Issue looks to be 2 way running.  We are not covering their players but instead running off into space.  A turnover and we are caught out.

    lol why am i wasting my Sunday on this. 

     

    Gee some flaky defending. Howes looks a very easy player to hassle out of the contest. 

    Obviously time to get them in the sheds at 2/7 time for a re-think, re-calculation and a re-set. Momentum is king.

    • 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.

      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.
