Do we assume that if Jagga Smith hadn't done his knee as well this wouldn't have happened. Either way it's good news as he has been showing good signs over pre-season and deserves a chance.

    We must have sold the figurative soul to the devil to make the AFL do this. Luckily we are Demons so nothing really lost there.

    As I posted elsewhere:

    With all respect and sympathy for Jagga Smith, thank god a Carton player was injured.

    (yes, I am cynical.)

    Some good news that out of the terrible injury AMW copped (get well soon), Jai gets his chance....we might have the physically biggest midfield in history if we played all of Culley, Petracca, Oliver and Langford in the one side

    Funnily enough today is Jai Culley's Birthday on the 24th of February. 🎂

    That's a pretty amazing Birthday gift to be put onto an AFL list (albeit due to unfortunate circumstances).

    I wish Jai Culley all the best at the Demons! 👹🔴🔵

    I’m glad his first name doesn’t start with the letter ‘S’.

    Happy with this pick up. Impressed with some of his WC games.

    Talk about sliding doors. If the game on Saturday ended 2 minutes earlier, then Jai would not be an AFL player this year.

    I think this is the right call. I don’t think we’ve had adequate midfield depth for a while now and from all reports Culley has done everything asked of him, and more, this pre-season. 

    I reckon we’ll see him in the side earlier than many expect, even if only for a handful of games.

    The problem with losing AMW was that he was also going to provide decent midfield depth.

    Gotta love the PSSSP!

    Great mature age recruiting by the Demons

    At the very least, Culley will keep players like Sparrow (and Langford) honest. Pressure on spots is never a bad thing.

    An excellent long kick for goal by Jai Culley.

    Hopefully he focuses on improving his pace.

    Here's your chance Jai! Good luck and all the best at the Melbourne Football Club! ❤️💙

    Looking forward to the Demon's media department doing a brief 5 minute interview with Jai over the next day or so.

    Me too.  I wouldn't have any idea about how to pronounce "Sjai".

    Without seeing any of our recruits live, I’m going to stick my neck out, and say that our recruiters have done an outstanding job this off season.  Jai is just the latest of a great bunch! ❤️💙

    I actually didn’t realise he was so big - 1.94 is massive!

    • 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.
