    hawks high on my list of most disliked teams. hoping for a Lions win

    We had massive opportunities to bury those ppricks from Glenferrie.

    No star power whatsoever.

    Bunch of rejects from other clubs put together, real social media, content creator type false alarmers.

    The Carlton forums are fun right now. This gave me a chuckle.

    We had a chance to trade McKay for Petracca, exactly the kind of player we need right now. Instead we pick Mr "In no rush for a premiership" who plays 1 good game out of every 4.

    did they?

    i don't think we'd have been keen on that deal

    bears run and spread from the contest is much better today

    who had the role, if anyone, on rayner last week? i can't seem to remember anyone in particular paying close attention to him, but i don't remember him being super-involved either

    2 hours ago, whatwhat say what said:

    if cripps doesn't win the ball at the stoppage - which i would say is 1 in 4, cos he's such a brute in that situation - then he simply doesn't move defensively at all

    I suspect the poor guy is absolutely knackered 90% of the time. It is one thing to carry the club's inside game AND be the stalwart calming influence on fans and coteries, but making Cripps play in the ruck for extended periods actually sits for me as the marker that Voss should go. A coach who looks at their best player, who is best in the competition at their primary role, and says 'you can sort out my positional disorganisations' is inviting a lightning bolt.

    On a related note, it wasn't that long ago that the Cripps-Walsh pairing was looking like becoming the core of an unstoppable midfield. Cripps with the sheer volume of impact on contests and Walsh with the relentless running and effective attacking use.

    Now, Cripps is wearing down to dust and Walsh just isn't a top level player - just by the numbers he's a solid 20% off his younger form.

    we let ourselves down with poor goal kicking.

    Seems the Fox commentators are barracking hard for the hawks, pretty ordinary I reckon

    Cripps in the ruck is just such a bad idea.

    Especially when you have Mackay needing to get into the game, and to take pressure off of him as a goal scorer.

    It may not look like much but the wrestling really takes it out of your second efforts, leads, sprints, etc.

    Hawks got pies, dogs and crows next 3, wouldn’t be surprised if they lost all 3. I don’t think they have beaten a side inside the 8 this year. Love to see them go into the bye outside the 8 and us above them

    Did the Hawthorn bench just hold up a painting?

    Correct.

    Must be a secret message!

    • 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.
