Billing’s kicking is and always has been shizen

Some sessions with Tiger Woods’s Shrink will help.

    Same number of scoring shots 

    Bit like the last few years 

    yes yes this year’s sample is n=1 - hopefully not a portent of things to come (I might lose my mind)

    I always thought Bowza was a measured composed footballer, but how many times has he thrown it on the boot today with zero regard or spatial awareness??

    Has Jed Adams had a disposal?

    He’s had 4 times what Chandler has produced 😳

    How to fu the game umpires, call a free that doesn’t exist when all of our blokes are streaming forward because the obvious free was ignored!

    Not sure Max Viney’s tackling classes have done much unfortunately - we haven’t been able to stick tackles all day

    Bowey ain't best 22.

    Billings literally can't kick a goal to save his life. 

    Again, we get scored against too easily.

    It’s a practice game & hope Goodwin isn’t showing his hand entirely as we will do stuff all leaking 16 goals

    Kozzy also reminding everyone how big of a loss he’ll be for the first three rounds 😭

    He’s not the player he was in year 1, a little muddled in the head still after a bad injury last year? Or from Steve May barking at our backline to chip it sideways and bomb it long for 3 years?

    Whatever it is he has to do better than this

    What in the world was Fritta thinking - in range, passes back to Billings - fails to score.

    Q4: Why would Fritter pass it to Billings???!!!

    Billings is possibly the worst finisher in the AFL! If he could actually finish off his work he'd be a decent player, he has no trouble finding the ball.

    22 behinds. It doesn’t really matter what your tactics are or what you do around the ground if you kick that many behinds. Make that 24

    • 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.
