Noah leads marks to a wavering lace out pass.

Kicking for goal is keeping opposition in striking distance.

Billy the kid keeps his feet in the clinches.

Gomez Adams doin’ alright fourth defensive mark.

Patrick Ireland big grab in the square goal!

i think we have something to work with here still 18 or 19, don't think he is ready for a game this but next year definitely worth a shot

he's not yet 19

very raw but has pace, which is a big plus

Gee would love to see kynan & taj produce something tonight

along with billings and laurie, they're both very vanilla - show nothing that indicates that they can step up to afl level

patrick ireland is an interesting type - not hugely tall, but mobile and attacks it in the air

So are we assuming spargo gets through tonight & Goodwin will pick him next week? Because that's what goody does

i would hope so

such an important 'connector'

 

Young defensive talls going well. Howes intercept.

Verrall has got stronger in the gym standing up in ruck against taller opponent.

Taj Woewodin nice touch over the boundary.

Bees 🐝 umpire assist goal.

Casey get repeat inside stoppages.

Will Verrall free fifty goal.


Howes excellent. Did laugh at the Footscray 500 comment.

Who is number 74 , please?

Wardell Lual. 26yr old who played for Werribee last year.

Edited by Random Task


Adams and Howes by far mfcs best. Culley doing ok as well as Billings. Laurie struggling it seems playing purely as a half forward.

Mitch Hardie. Controversial thinking. Draft him in. Late pick. He will walk into our best 22. Know how to play half forward. Knows how to kick goals. Hits targets.

Skill errors galore by both teams at the half

Nobody apart from Howes, and perhaps, Adams pressing for senior selection at this stage.

lIke watching Casey. Only 5 goals to the half but better than the winners last year in the vfl


2nd Q
Howes 8.5 Adams 8 Smith 2

R. Bonner 5 Lual 4 Freeman 1

K. Brown 5 Billings 6 Woewodin 4.5

H. Sharp 7 Fullarton 2 Laurie ??

Henderson 1 Kentfield 1 Hardie 3

Verrall 6.5 Culley 4 Spargo 3

Baldi 4 Mentha Jnr 4 Ireland 2

Yze 4 Sruk 1

Verall looks like he is worth persevering with, especially in that second ruck role, if he can develop some forward craft. Howes stands out. Billing’s has been good but desperately looking for something big from our younger guys, e.g. Kentfield.

Surprised how poor the standard is, wouldn’t hold their own against a decent suburban team, absolutely hopeless.

Menthol and Kentfield , not up to it.

It’s hard to believe how many absolute garbage commentators Ch7 has.

Thank Christ they’re not umpiring.

Charlie Spargo “provocateur” heats up the half time entertainment.

Cooler heads prevail it was looking like an all in stoush brewing.

5 goals 5 behinds balances the ledger.

Positive spin on the game, it’s a contested defensive pressured performance. Casey ground some ascendancy that qt.

  • 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.
