    Isn’t it funny how most weeks our opposition are complete sharp shooters and never miss, we are bloody cursed when it comes to goal kicking

    You gotta give up something to get something.

    We have enough tall defenders to cover Disco.

    I'd send him forward and see what he can bring.

    We aint winning this without kicking straight from here

    Dominating inside 50s and can't kick a goal, Turner will be moved forward with 5 minutes left with the game out of reach

    Cursed - no. Just can’t be bothered working on it.

    Too many dumb decisions, too many missed goals, too often. Agonising to watch our defence do so much right, only to have our forward play be so poor. Sparrow's kick just then - case in point.

    Sparrow shocking disposal.

    we can be so very annoying

    1.4 for a dominant qtr.

    and we’ve gone backwards on the scoreboard.

    Do we want to win??

    Same old story.

    I’m so over watching this team kick themselves out of games. It’s boring.

    Boring is one word. [censored] infuriating is another.

    Is Chocco in charge of skills?

    He has been bleeding us dry for years filling up his superannuation fund.

    And the May-Lever dynamic duo is long gone, both way past their best.

    We are where we are on the ladder because we aren’t that good. Simple. Mid range AFL team.

    Because we are kicking from congested forward line and pushed out to the pockets while they are taking shots from the goal square.

    So much of our game today is just not AFL standard - skills and effort

     

    When are the coaches going to admit we have a serious problem with accuracy?

    We are going to kiss any chance of finals goodbye because we can’t kick straight against a bog ordinary Saints side

    • 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.

      It's Game Day and Clarry's 200th game and for anyone who hates Carlton as much as I do this is our Grand Final. Go Dees.

    • 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.
