Melbourne went within four points of eating Crow on the MCG in their Round 19, 2023 encounter at the MCG. That was the margin that saw them breathing sighs of relief as they got across the line to beat Adelaide. In doing so, they put four more important points inside the winning column for their season. Max Gawn was in great form accumulating 38 hit outs and kicking a couple of goals and Kozzie Pickett returned to form with a crashing game.

MELBOURNE 2.2.14 6.4.40 11.7.73 14.13.97

    Seven or eight missing from that team next Thursday but I think we’re better now.

    Crows were flying at that stage in the season as well, having beaten the Lions, just lost to Collingwood and pushing GWS. Totally different formline for them now.

    No McAdam = no Adelaide? 🤣

    They were woeful this weekend against Freo. 4 goals, and virtually evaporated in the 2nd half. Where's Burgess?  Hope we smoke them.

    • 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.
