    Roo should have handballed then

    Ya reckon? I thought it was a pretty good pass.

    Fritsch has no physicality and body work to make that work.

    It was a pure one on one and it was a good kick.

    We keep sending our big body forward right up the field but I get it.

    The kid needs to keep getting the ball in his hands to build confidence.

    But Kozzy has to roll back too, so apart from Melksham. We really don't have anyone.

    I'd seriously think about trading Fritsch at end of season. I say it wilth sadness too because he has been great but not for the last two seasons.

    We are so frustrating to watch. Full credit to Melksham. The oldest player and the only one standing up. Another goal!
     

    Melksham set shot. Goal 6 (from set shots)

    That lead by Melksham is

    That last play there sums up our forward line.

    JVR has an empty goal square and forward line. Fritsch has a team mate streaming towards him.

    Three options:

    1. Fritsch leads hard to space. JVR kicks to him. Clean shot on goal.

    2. Fritsch drags his opponent away or runs off him to create space. JVR even shoots at goal or kicks/handballs to a free Fritsch.

    3. JVR backs himself in and has a shot at goal.

    None of the above happen. Fritsch jogs a lead. JVR does a chip kick 15 meters. Fritsch is spoiled, Crows get it out.

    This team is actually unwatchable.

    Just as I said. Melksham just did exactly what Fritsch doesn't.

    pity melks isn't 5 years younger. our only forward with real smarts


    Can’t win a clearance and can’t tackle. What the actual [censored] has happened to this midfield?


    Umps making sure now

    we need more of what Hibberd brought to our 21 team.

    Yeah, running those straight lines out of defence instead of boundary hugging and handballs

    • 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.
