    To both. AFL is a tough gig these days. Talent alone doesn't necassarily get you very far.

    Nine years on AFL lists is pretty impressive, even if his career didn't reach great heights. I still don't know what we were expecting from him this year.

    Selecting him over Grundy during the finals was criminal by those involved

    Grundy asked not to be selcted. He was out the door

    Sad that it didn’t work out for Josh and for us, but it didn’t. 
     

    Does that mean that FullArton will get another year (maybe he does anyway but I am unsure of his contract status)?

    Yep, he's got another year to go for his contract.

    3 AFL Clubs so clearly very close. Thank you Josh, I had high hopes we could help unlock what was needed for you to be a regular contributor. Best of luck in your future endeavours.

    No the worst mistake was not using Schacky from about 5 mins. Before 3/4 time instead of Tmac. 

    The use of the Sub rule even in the GF in 2021 was sad ( like Heppell’s goodbyes at Marvel)  and Simon has not improved in 3 years further. In fact it needs a Royal Commission!!!

    Having the all of around five gamer Laurie as the sub when Gus went down wasn't exactly a great move.

    The bloke had zero experience but chosen for a final.  Still boggles the mind.

    Not sure what Goody was thinking then.

    That was when only medical subs could be used. Harmsey tried to fake an injury to get Jordan on. Should have tried harder.

    • 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.

      It's Game Day and Clarry's 200th game and for anyone who hates Carlton as much as I do this is our Grand Final. Go Dees.

    • 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.
