    2 average teams. Cats with only 1 injury concern

    Surely the Cats disappear forever now (have predicted this since 2017)

    Apart from them and Langford, can’t see too many more kicking their goals.

    Dodo did a magnificent job of getting that list together. Incompetence for over 20 years. Took them long enough to get rid of him.

    Of course the only time they send these guys down to that $hithole is during a worthless practice match. Now that Hawthorn are temporarily good again after 1 season, they’ll never be sent there again for another 10 years. 🤡🤦‍♂️

    Listening to the commentators you would think they are all paid up Cats members the way they talk about them… sickening

    Geez Nate Caddy is a solid forward. He would have worked so well with JVR.

    Yeah but we have Jeffo!

    he wasn't in the draft tho, not really - he was in the peptides' academy 

    you can see why they were prepared to trade us their pick so we couldn't nominate him

    hopefully marcus prassad is as promising for us as he is for them

    It's so hard to know what to take out of these games. A lot of times in the TAB* when an unexpected horse won a race the punters would rush back to the form guides on the wall to check whether there was a factor they had missed. Usually this wouldn't improve one's punting; but the same during the year if, say, Kako kicks 40 goals or Geelong drops down to 12th we'll then overrate hindsight.

    As for watching these games I'm sure I'm not the only one who likes to have these kind of things, plus other sports, on in the background. I suspect if I was born in America I'd be spoiled for choice for nightly sports viewing (assuming I liked their biggest sports in this parallel universe.)

     

    * This is ancient history. I'd guess the only people still in TABs are tragics who either can't afford pay TV or are Luddites who even resisted using email for years.

    Teams don't defend much in practice matches and sometimes just fully experiment so the results are totally meaningless.

    Positional changes, player roles and performances of new recruits is the reason to watch them.

    • 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.
