Shooting is probably over the top. 

In my day you would have got 6 of the best from Brother Dominic.

And Brother Dominic would've got  12 of the best from me.

Anyways, no need to be so abrasive next time. I got the name of a town wrong, big deal.

    Herman's Bay ???? WTF

    Maybe you mean Hermannsburg.

    Somewhere near Traegarar Park.

    Geography & spelling are not Demonlander strong suits.

    As I’ve tried to explain to CrankyPants (above) I couldn’t fully understand some of what the boys were saying. One can only say “Pardon, what was that?” so many times before it gets annoying.

     I actually googled Herman’s Bay while with them and something about the NT popped up. I assumed I had the right name.

    SO SHOOT ME FFS 🙄 

    Not to worry WCW Hermannsburg has some historical significance it was set up by a Dutch religious group and had involvement in teaching and training indigenous children also for recording and translating indigenous words and places as the aboriginal people have 100’s of different dialects but no written language. So their work is quite significant.😁

     MFC Casey players are out now.

    All rehabbers have joined them, Marty, McAdam, Melky, Bowey, Sestan.

    Sestan has some left shoulder strapping.

    McAdam doing well. Accelerating with power and some beautiful shimmies and cutting lines in a handball comp/drill.

    No, not Marty. Trainers call him out, he wanted to be in the drills, but no. Also, not Bowey. Though they both play in the structural sims.

    White caps are Sestan and Turner, (no tackling).

    Hunter doing some instructions when the sims breaks.

    The squad is looking classy, rarely any errors.

    McAdam is looking the goods, (in the sim), running hard defensively and when attacking. 

    Schache is playing well.

    Jefferson gets lost at times, needs more work on his decisions and intention. When he has space, he kills it with skills.

    Andy Moniz-Wakefield is in the backline.

    All these positive signs are an indication of a great team.

    • 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.
