Feels like other clubs are much better at identifying talented smalls (that impact games) than us.
 

We have Kosi, yes, but he cost us pick 12 and that’s about all we have (I’m not a huge Chandler fan).

    Elite ball use in finals goes a long way. No Farrell and Houston hurts, let’s see how good Port are.

    Port are looking exceedingly ordinary so far, again…..

    Apart from the Butters kick and Burton finish they’ve done sfa.

    Danger is the most over hyped and over rated footballer in recent times. 

    I mean he’s probably 2-3 years passed his prime?

    The finals paradigm used to be ‘tough, contested footy’, which we aimed to master.

    This game is quick and the team executing well is on top.

    Our preferred style of footy out of date in the regular season and now out of date in the offseason.

    He missed the shot, but what a pass and lead and mark!

    Pressure still trumps everything.

    Ooooft, I dunno, in my mind prime danger was streaming out of the middle and hitting leading forwards on the chest. He is definitely a player I would say over the last ten years can win games off his efforts.

    But that’s just me

    Nah. 
    Different game. 
    Neither team cares much whether the opposition kicks 100pts - as long as they kick 101pts.

    My tip is Port. The game has to tighten up and i rank Port's defence over Cats.

    • 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.
