Melksham - our only winner

Petracca - disposal was amateurish

Gawn - had negligible influence

Viney - tried but limited

Pickett - great last quarter

Bowey - tried but overwhelmed

Rivers - loose and disinterested

Turner - strong first half

Langford - needed longer break

Oliver - just a shadow

Chandler - irrelevant and uninvolved

Fritsch - seemingly without heart

Sparrow - another nothing game

McVee - little influence again

Petty - was actually missed

Langdon - not a tagger

Tholstrup - a year away

May - career is fading

Sharp - little to offer

Salem - regularly slowed momentum

Jefferson - two years away

Howes - unsighted before injury

Lindsay - shown no growth

    You’ve given two players a positive review (of sorts) and yet we had two players less for most of the game and went down by four goals. Genuinely clueless assessments

    Ridiculous comment.

    We all know, but you, we were lucky not to lose by 15 goals.

    Present your 3 word analysis to show me where I misjudged

    Everyone to their own opinion But we had a miserably poor 1st quarter and looked like we would go down by 60+ points, we hit the post twice and Milkshake missed at least two that he would normally swallow and we went down by 19 points to a top 8 side that was aided and abetted by the umpiring fraternity. Plus we were two down.????

    Yes I think you are right. Every week this thread gets more emotional and worse. It's more of an insight into the posters fragility than a reflection. It used to be quite interesting.

    Well if I were paid more to produce this thread each week then perhaps I’d present more positive reviews.

    Sure:

    Fritsch - tackles and goals

    Rivers - 27 possessions. Disinterested?

    Sharp - (sub) provided some spark

    Langford - continues to grow

    Bowey - beat direct opponent

    Jefferson - started slowly. Glimpses

    Salem

    Lever

    Oliver

    Some big stars that no longer are.

    Sparrow never was.

    Tracca plays some iffy games.

    Petty not a fwd. Fritta comes and goes so apart from Melksham turning up we don't have a fwd line.

    This team is unrecognisable to the one that won a flag. It's interesting because there are still quite a few of them still there. At least a dozen. And they're not all old.

    I agree Joe, Jefferson was poor 2 years away! That's never. It's time to move on from him he is not a AFL talent. I have said to play him for a number of games. However there was zero in that game to show him as a needed player.

    He should be careful. That can result in haemorrhoids!

    Trying to blame umpires for this is so one-eyed we should be sponsored by the Fred Hollows Foundation.

    • 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.
