This time there won’t be a 40-minute singalong to Sweet Caroline & Take Me Home, Country Roads.

Hashtag get some more songs, Gabba!

 

Was Salo at the Capitano run today?

Have almost given up worrying about the result. Mostly interested in how the young ones go.

I feel the same way, given the coaching, demands/injuries/limited reliance and selection(s) this year! Giving the 'younger ones' the opportunity in the AFL team is paramount for improvements in '25. Fresh rounds in the magazine, so to speak. If they can hit the target, they will still kill.

Midfielders, bombing = little game play for Chandler other than what he picks up on the side with extraordinary efforts. Lowering eyes from the midfield, Chandler gets space, gets goals.

Our forward entries could best be described as atrocious.

    So bad, it totally negates Fritta, JVR, Chandler, resting rucks, flankers, utilities ... and the midfielders, themselves.

    With respect, I sincerely hope we mess up your tips this week ❤️💙

    I had a dream on Tuesday night we were winning in the 3rd quarter by 5 goals, then it becomes all blurry after that.

    I didn't see him there.

    He trains fully. Has been for a while now. I’ll be shocked and disappointed if they make him come back through Casey. 

    He has been training and now full training for some time but he has had a minor set back a little while ago but not his knee. Coming back through the reserves were his words. Personally I would hope one week at Casey only because of the length of time he has been out.

    But would I be surprised if he came straight back in?

    Definitely. It’s been several weeks now with no sign of improvement 

    I was thinking maybe just a 🤔 for this, W, but, what the heck...

    This muted, arms length response contrasts with your previous inner-sanctum reporting from the Fritsch camp.

    Should we be worried?


    Little doggie man omitted- what a joke! Club is a mess!

    Strange selection with Lever, May, Tomlinson, JVR, Turner, TMac and Petty in the side

    maybe Turner will be the sub?


    Kynan dropped after 5 minutes of play, what a pointless selection then last week. Good coach we have 🤮[censored] joke.

    He will then have Woey as a sub again and give him no opportunity. 
    You would look elsewhere if you had half a chance.

    Not sure about May, Lever, TMac and Tomlinson all in the side. 

    Are we planning on TMac or Tomlinson playing forward? Or May or Lever playing small? 

    Not a fan of Brown being dropped after 10 minutes of game time and I’d prefer we don’t make AMW sub, so presumably Woey cops it again.

    Yeah I’d be pretty cheesed off if I was K.Brown right now. Like what more could he have done last week? Winning the game for us wasn’t enough? I hope the communication to him has been clear.

    Not at all Tim. I’m still very close friends with Pauline Fritsch. We speak every other day and see each other often. Bayley just happens to be her son. I have a son the same age as Bayley, and Pauline and I don’t talk much about either of them.

    I can’t deny he’s currently in a form-slump. I mean, I’m delusional. But I’m not that delusional 😅

    I'm just getting frustrated with this incessant desire to not reward anyone who shows some ticker. 

    He'll be back I'm sure, just for god's sake don't make AMW sub or this place will be torn apart.

    I hate them dropping Brown even more than I hated them playing him as the sub last week. Way to just [censored] all over the kids head.

    Kynan dropped after 10 mins of play, a gamewinning tackle and a kick to advantage. Wtf mate honestly

      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.
