    Great first half lads!

    Our pressure and tacking intensity is up. Conditions is suiting us more then Essendon.

    Essendon are incredibly soft and don't like the contest work.

    One more half to go boys!

    Cracking tackle my McVee! 

    Another good  end to the qtr. keeping up the intensity, keeping them thinking and have just had a little more spark up forward. This is a good base to build from. Let’s get them in the second half! 

    Rivers to be a permanent midfielder.

    Sparrow may be out of the team soon.

    Will be interesting to see how the second half goes. I'm still scarred from our final quarter against the Lions

    Playing angry with intent, no soft players or there today, unlike Essendon

    Nathan Jones has been pretty soft

    Much better quarter. Stopped Ess run on the outside, lots of pressure on the man causing the fumble.

    JVR much better in the ruck that quarter. Not getting pushed off the ruck contest

    • 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.
