Getting pretty much nothing from our forwards, and moving the ball sloppily from defence. We do look tired, as you'd expect.

    Lets face it.
    We're going about as good as the umpires right now.

    I don't think there was any reason not to see out the quarter without conceding. Why did Rivers go inboard?

    5 days break will do that to you

    the boys needed to sharpen up otherwise we're in trouble


    They were always going to come out firing

    7 shots to 2 and we are 5 points down 

    i’ll take that!

    Rivers first quarter kicking again. Grrr.

    Flat game of footy without lots of intensity. 

    We usually play and score so well from a halfback turnovers, but we can't seem to get it past the wing.

    Choppy game so far, I think we’ll be ok when it settles. Crows getting away with a fair few throws, drops, arm chops - looks like they’re getting unco allowance.

    Poor kicking performance so far from Riv. Turned it over with his last 3 kicks.

    Noise of affirmation working well

    Completely outcoached and outplayed that quarter

    Lucky they didn't kick straight

    Adelaide play a chip game.... you win 70 metres out from their goal and rebound

    Getting smashed in the middle and our foot skills have been bad. 

    Hopefully we’re saving the energy for.. . Well, from now because we can’t afford them entering the 50 like that all game, eventually they’ll improve conversion.

    Hard to see on the Telly, Is Oliver being tagged? Can’t seem to get near it.

    • 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.
