He was a good contributor in 2019, then was basically injured for the entirety of 2020 and 2021. We redrafted him and (shock) he was injured again for most of 2024.

What did we possibly think was going to happen in 2025, other than him being injured for most of the year?

At some point the club has to recognise that guys like Hore and McAdam simply aren't built to play AFL.

hore had a very strong season in the vfl in between stints at the mfc

Sadly, Marty Hore is out for the season and beyond but there’s better news on other fronts.

Ollie Sestan was one week last week. What's happened? I want to see him pushing for ones again!!!

Oliver Sestan due to return after a lengthy lay off with a hammy.

Oliver Sestan — hamstring / Available

Aidan Johnson — ankle / Test

Harry Petty — concussion / Test

Tom Sparrow —concussion / 1 - 2 weeks

Jake Lever — ankle/ TBC

Marty Hore — knee, shoulder / season

Shane McAdam — Achilles / season

Andy Moniz-Wakefield — knee / season

Thanks for the update Chelly, a bit sad for Rick that ankle/ foot issue has really affected his 2025, let’s hope they keep him out until it is back to 100%.

 

Time to put Lever on ice for the remainder of the season. Get him 100% right for day one of pre season.

I'd bring May back in for Lever and bring Petty back through the twos.

I also wouldn't be dropping JVR or Jeffo the rest of this season, unless through injury or needing a rest.

If they are both fit then potentially Petty can come back in as a key defender.

  • 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.
