This is all coaching for me. Goodwin doing nothing to stop their use of the corridor. Feel like we're going to get overrun here in the 2nd half

    Unfortunately, as our key forward he is supposed to win them, not halve them.

    Has Petracca had an effective disposal?

    Jeffersons lack of intensity has me doubting his likelihood of making it.

    But he has done a couple of nice "forward craft" things, including halving an aerial 3 on 1 contest, a couple of sheppards to free a team mate etc. so I do still have some hope.

    The lack of skills from senior players is abysmal

    Let’s hope Melky is alright

    Typically uninspiring Goodwin game.
    Might make better use of my time and find something more entertaining and productive to do.

    Tracc 14 disposals at 36%. Yikes. I’ll cut him some slack but the 2025 version of Tracc is a C grader at best.

    Really hard to win them when not one player kicks the ball to his advantage.

    That was just goddamn awful. Same old story as any other game this year. No system, no cohesion and no composure at all. North should really be a couple of goals up.

    Lever and Salem have become liabilities, Trac's confidence is shot, and Kolt just doesn't look up to it.

    I'm mesmerised that Tmac was dropped before Lever. He looks so much better than him that it's not funny.

    Very hard to enjoy this game. I think both sides are terrible

    What the hell does Tholstrup bring to this team? Not even VFL standard.

    He’s a victim of Goodwin’s selection style. Constantly putting new players in and out of the team and playing them in different positions.

    • 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.
