I can’t work out the 3rd. I know who was banned and who got retired.

I agree, I can't think of the third person. Besides the obvious 2, I thought the rest of the departures were solid citizens.

    I had him marked as the one who retired.

    No thank you.

    I don't believe we are the sort of club that can turn a player like JUH around in the same way Geelong, Collingwood or some of the northern state clubs can. IMO he's more likely to create trouble rather than become the best player he can with us.


    Reports are that Jamarra Ugle-Hagan won't be at the Dogs for too much longer. Should the Demons try and recruit him? A Huge risk, but the bloke can play!

    No. I would have been a maybe a couple of months ago but too many even worse reports on his behaviour have emerged since.

    Absolutely no.

    Just asking the question mate.

    For Bevo to say his path back will be decided / guided by the AFL puts the mental health card to bed. Any club taking him on would be wanting clauses in his contract should certain scenario’s play out.

    Depends who bolts at years end. We are desperate for a goal kicker. Yes!

    could you be more specific?

    Yep, we had the Oliver situation which from all reports [censored] a lot of people off by how it was handled. Cultural issues going back years, a lot of positional infrastructure missing at admin level, a home base to sort out and ideally a cliff to not fall down over the next couple of seasons.

    Adding a person with complex issues, associated with seemingly dubious characters, that isn’t even showing up to their current club with any kind of consistency, that wouldn’t respond to Bontompelli’s mentoring leading to him being alienated from the group, to our club and expecting us to be able to handle it given our very recent form, is inviting disaster and very unneeded distractions.

    Risking our younger players being poorly influenced and it spilling over into derailing/hampering/alienating them. Any chance of that happening is unacceptable to me and could screw us big time when we have to find stability.

    No. No No No.

    He's becoming the Scott Morrison of AFL. Wants the job but doesn't want to do the work. Only listens to people telling him how great he is, and even those people are just trying to sell him something.

    We desperately need another good quality tall forward.

    But the Demons should only take JUH if he changed his attitude and behaviour.

    For 100k per year 1 year contract for a future 3rd - yes. Any more, then no.

    the reality is I reckon he’ll retire from Football. Just doesn’t have the desire anymore.

    • 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.
