    If you had told me at the start of the year that our midfield would become our worst performing area, I’d call you crazy. I’ve got more faith in our forwards than I do in our mids.

    Also, I fear for the crowd size next week. Port could out number us.

    Any injuries, put those players on ice and get the kids in. Load up for 2025.

    All the ugliness of this season reprised in this game.

    i doubt we will win another game this year. such a pitiful performance, we allow the opposition to run around all by themselves and at times we dont even chase them.

    35 shots to 14. Season on the Line

    Big changes inside the Club are needed 

    Top to Bottom, we need change

    Yep, get the off-season surgeries out of the way early.

    The easiest thing to turn around in footy is a midfield but we also need another KPD, Stevie May as great as he’s been is close to done

    50 point loss against a team coming off a 5 day break is damning. just not up for the fight tonight at all.

    Very disappointed. I expected better

    Thank God they only had a5 day break

     

    Pretty sure we were assured they would crumble in the 2nd half

     

    I actually thought the players had a go and never gave in. 

     

    This is all on the coaching staff that are clueless.

    Well, that was pretty sad and boring to watch.

    Actually thought we were becoming a dependably competitive team there for a while, but that's a distant memory now.

    1 x compromised premiership and zero finals wins in the next 3 seasons is a travesty for this group.  Very disappointing.

    Not our best capitulation, but another fine effort within the Badloss School of Under-developed Footballing.

    Absolutely smashed. Should have been 100 points.

    It’s kind of fitting and sad that the doggies did this to us tonight. We smashed them to win a GF to herald what we thought was a dynasty and they have smashed us not even 3 years later to close our door. Is it closed for this year? Or for good with this list? I don’t know. But all I know is they must have felt good ending our season.

    We were terrible.

    Cant believe I’m saying this, but can we do a turnaround like the dogs? They were lost last year, slid out of the 8 as we have and started poorly this year. It can be done, but it takes honesty and hard work. 

    I may hold my 20+ year membership next year, unless I see we’re actually going to perform a review on what has happened. I know we lost Gus and Trac but that does not mean effectively 100 point loss. We didn’t lose to an invincible either. 

    Lots of questions to be asked at year end.

    sad tonight, friends. That was woeful. 

    We will always have 2021 I guess ❤️💙

    Yep. 

    Defensively a very weak performance again - this is becoming a trend. Weak in the contest, weak in transition, weak 1v1 down back. 

    We're a shell of what we once were. And I don't think it's coming back.

    No cohesion, midfield non-existent, backline a mess.

    Bowey finally looking like his old self, one of the few shining lights.

    The dynasty should have come in the years we went out in straight sets, and we mostly have ourselves to thank for that. How bloody pathetic.

    • 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.
