Can someone please explain why you play on from the centre at pace and then kick to 3 on one opposition and the other forwards no where near it?

    Moniz prolific ... ends up with Bill who hits Sesto lace out on the lead.

    Sesto hits a shorty to Windsor who goes back amd misses from 30 in front

    Sandy by 2 points

    Casey a competitive quarter, inaccuracy for goal denies them the lead.

    Entertaining footy. 

    Laurie, AMW, Tholstrup all excellent. Billings using it well, K Brown had some impressive early touches. Jefferson showing that he's capable at ground level and not just reliant on his marking. Sestan got more involved as the quarter wore on and looks dangerous inside 50.

    Surely AMW gets a promotion soon. His tackling is good.  Won some good contested footy too.

    Inability to get clean possession inside 50 hasn't helped. Sandringham much better going inside 50

    Casey would positively lead the i50 count. Sandy cleaner more efficient.

    Yes they often miss lateral or 45 options but it's also a result of some forwards not working hard enough (repeat efforts) to hit up at the ball carrier.

    This same thing purveys alot when players are bursting out of stoppage through the middle or off a wing. 

    The leads from designated forwards often go missing.  They are somehow expecting fatigued player to kick it over the head of their defender as they run away from them towards goal.

    Alternatively a player at stoppage receiving or gathering under pressure then having to dump kick.  Often forwards sit back in this situation allowing their direct opponent or a spare to play in front for the easy intercept.

    See this quite often at senior level too.

    One of my bug bears.  Very frustrating to watch.

    Their transition has been quicker / slicker on occasions too giving them nice looks inside 50

    Edwards having a decent game so far.

    Hits up Benny who then decides not to shoot at goal from 50 and returns the favour to Edwards who misses from 35 on a 45

    Agree, but one can see you have no forwards present but they just kick without understanding they need to hold it up till the forwards get back it's just playing on for the sake of it, it's bad coaching full stop.

    • 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.
