1. struggling -Turner 

Petty? He played one of the worst key defensive roles at our club since probably a game from OMac in 2020. His body language stinks and got badly beaten in one-on-ones again.

 

This is a tough call, unfortunately for all the wrong reasons.

6.   Chandler:  A four quarter ‘workhorse’.  Ran hard all day, put his body on the line, and kicked three goals. One of his best games.
5.   Oliver:  Slowly working back to his best.  Never gave up against the odds.
4.   Salem:  Solid defensively, despite that he seems to have lost a yard.  Mostly precise delivery, and a few nice second efforts.
3.   Bowey:  Solid game, spoilt by a couple of costly clangers.
2.   Lindsay:  Very mature and composed for his age and experience. A big part of our future.
1.    Henderson:  mostly nice vision and neat execution.  Will be around for a while, I expect.

Not voting - very disappointed,

Only one player can honestly hold his chin up!


Didn't see the game, and probably won't, now, but good to see Lindsay featuring.

Have enough people voted yet to end this toom?

Working yesterday and just watched the replay, so I feel quite confident that five players were worthy.

Sixth goes to one of our hardest workers.

6 Chandler - This was his best game ever and showed that Goody's faith in him was worth the wait. I am one of those who queried his ability to be physically effective enough to play small forward and having some time in middle helped break up that role and he was mega clean, unlike teammates.

5 Oliver - Very good at winning the footy (12 clearances) and one lovely left-foot goal. But he was part of a terrible bit of play after halftime when both he and Trac failed to stick tackles on Paul Curtis. But still very much a step back to his good old days of 2021.

4 Lindsay - Laid the most tackles of any Demon and very effective with his disposals. Career only two games in, but gees he looks the part.

3 Bowey - Made perhaps the biggest howler with a dreadful shanked kick when going long through the middle that resulted in a Zurhaar goal, but otherwise was very serviceable and he's made a great start to the season after a very good game last week.

2 Salem - Neat and tidy all day and seemed to play close to his opponents.

1 Sparrow - Yes I know he had no awareness when being chased down with a shot on goal, but at least he worked his butt off along with Viney. Both turned the ball over continuously, but Viney's left boot missed passes did more damage to us than Sparrow's errant ball blasts.

Always someone who's good for a laugh

Not worried about the votes.

Was that a breakout game for Chandler? Sure looked like it. .Its taken a while but with some players when the penny drops  it hits the turf with a thud.

He now knows what he is capable of doing.

If that is his new standard going forward I will take that loss and look forward to Kosi joining him up forward.

3 Myself for making the effort to go to Shizzen stadium and catching the train and being entertained by the antics of other travellers,which was better than what was dished up by the Dees on Sunday!

2 Myself for staying till the end

1 Myself for putting up with buses replacing trains and not getting home until after 9

Definitely chandlers best game. Did not think he had this level in him, well done.

other years he has started OK then faded hope this also changes.

Windsor and Oliver both played well. 
 

3 positives  make the result a little more palatable

That Daniel Turner is 8th is bizarre and concerning.

He touched the pill 7 times at 57% efficiency.

  • 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.
