    Swans just executing their game plan and skills better. They look like they have more time

    Don't enjoy potting players, but I'm yet to see anything from Laurie that suggests he's up to the level yet. Sub him off for Billings at half time.

    Training drill for the swans unfortunately. We really needed that call early when ANB should’ve had a shot 10m out directly in front. Umpires have been disappointing. So have we though.


    Unless this gets better might be bed at half time

     

    Ho hum

    👏Gawn. Tomlinson.  Viney.  Only !!! 

    Max is having no impact at all.

    One disposal. No marks.

    Tommo tick.

    Oliver looks good.

    Kick straight and we win.

    It's a big if though.

    This years game plan is looking a lot like last year’s and the year before that, and the year before that….goal kicking accuracy is shizen again.

    If you listen to everyone it's not even worth watching the rest because if you don't take your chances you're stuffed.


    Why the [censored] did an underdone spargo get picked ahead of the class-machine Billings?

    Not enough credit given to Swans. Suffocating our ball movement and cutting through our zone too easy with shirt kicks and switches.

    I don’t see what he adds? And Billings at least finds the ball


    Spargo around goal 🤮

    Fritta playing on instead of doing the team thing and taking the alloted time so our press could set up and players recover.  As a rookie i'd get it... but for an experienced player that's a shocker and SG should make sure he never does that again.

    All players should be on notice here not just Fritta.  Has to be a team rule unless only a few minutes of match time to go and we need a very quick goal.

    Edited by Demon Dynasty

    Spargo and Fritta have to nail those two goals, you don’t miss them at AFL level. 
     

    We aren’t playing well, but it’s the first quarter. Get a run on and get some confidence.

    Settle Dees. 1Q thoughts:

    - Viney, great as always

    - Sparrow, inspired

    - ANB, good 1% ers

    - Spargo, would rather Billings

    - Schache, don’t know if he is AFL quality

    I think we'll win this but geez we're still absolutely shizen going forward 


    What is going on with Fritsch?!

    • 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.
