Are we going to do our usual thing and come back in the last to lose by less than a kick, and then claim it to be an honorable loss? That practice is a load of bollocks

You know how it works here!

It is..... but it's definitely not going to happen tonight or again this year.

We are done.

Maybe twelwth spot finish this year.

No more straight sets rubbish I suppose.

I’ve never seen him so angry. Can’t blame him. I would be suspended for life if I had been out there tonight.

To be fair while the umpires are horrible, we are losing because we are completely terrible and being dominated all over the ground.

    Our recruiting since 2022 has been putrid.

    McAdam not even ready for VFL.

    Hunter is a semi retired player.

    I hope we don't screw it this year or we'll be in a world of pain for a long time.

    Oh right, TMAC forward now.

    Tanking lite?

    Goodwin clutching at straws.

    Third quarter with the season on the line - right on schedule.

    My poor son traveled 800 ks for his first game tonight.

    Thank you Mfc for turning him off footy.

    Or maybe into a dogs supporter.

    Thank you for calling it out.

    I'd add Billings to that.

    Done well with some youngsters but those others were way off.

    Did TMac just [censored] up Viney’s goal?

    No one is denying that we have played terribly or that the umpires performance is any better

    McDonald forward is the right move. Provides mobility that none of the others do, and we were getting nothing from Petty - who would be better down back in the absence of may.

    Aaah Max, you kick one of those 60m goals once a year.

    About one in ten attempts

    Let's try one game not blaming the umpires. 

    There hasn't been one game in the last month where they truly cost us the game. If we, a list with several premiership players need a good rub to be in a game then I suggest you go and support swimming or a sport without umpires.

    The ARC is the real winner tonight

    Sadly only the kids drafted have been a net positive.

    There needs to be a lot of changes in the off season starting with assistant coaches.

    I have said it before, his failures in 2019 and 2020 after making it to a PF were telling.

    2021 we had the perfect season, including injuries.

    0-4 in finals since the premiership.

    All those finals played at the MCG.

    Goodwin's credit is well spent IMV.

    Sums up his performances  minus since 21 have been poor … not sure what strategy is & confusing 1 over 2 or 1 ruck & our mids getting smashed , failed to trade any decent marquee player of any position ..  needs to be moved on

    I was thinking the same. Then remembered that there’s no way I can support an organisation that allows males to fight females. It’s appalling and truly disgusting.

    I was done after the depraved opening ceremony.

    Petty with Disco forward.

    TMAC was competing harder than anyone else down back.

    • 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.
