We need to start turning the sprinklers on before the game and during quarter breaks at home games.

McVee is absurd in the wet.

Rivers... what an absolute gun.

Rivers has certainly stepped up and showing what a quality player he is... given the opportunity. I miss Trac but I'm glad to see Rivers displaying some great skills. Go you good thing.

    Why is McGrath’s head so big?!

    Because it's full of peptides and rocks.

    given that Trac returns Rivers is going to be a great addition to the midfield rotations.

    Umpiring is disgraceful but hey what’s new I guess. It is concerning that Melbourne players can continued to get tackled for a lengthy period of time without even being close to the ball. Holding the man non-existent.

    the commentary is an Essendon love fest which is making my ears bleed.

    rivers is an absolute gun, the man is playing out of his skin and it’s awesome to see.

    the boys are having a red hot crack and I’m loving the intensity, just pray they keep it going into the second half.

    FCS what were you expecting? He has put his hand up. 

    Undermanned in the ruck, Petty being towelled up apparently but guess what we are winning the clearances just. Got to wonder about dominant rucks. Their real value is marking, spoiling around the ground, forcing teams to go wide, rather than the number of hit outs. Which is code for me saying we should have kept Grundy 😀! 


    the question now is can we maintain or even increase that lead over the next 2 quarters. the boys have done well. Petty has to lift 5 disposals and given away 3 free kicks in the half when he on the ball a fair bit of the time is not great. certainly need sparrow to lift as well

    • 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.
