No. 31

Very good for the Dees to get Harvey Langford to extend for an additional 2 years. He will be an elite footballer.

Just saw Promo No.2. Quality, even better than the first one. Dee's social media team are smashing it this year 👏

I guess it depends on what their visa mistake was. Hopefully it is just a case of finding new dates to reschedule rather than something else. Considering they are from Japan it is not a high risk country from an immigration/visa perspective so hopefully it won't be a major issue.

Have seen Buddhadatta twice now and was planning to go to the Thornbury gig a few weeks ago. Hopefully they will be back later this year.

Was an amazing defender at his peak! Will always be remembered as a Demons Premiership player. All the best for the next stage of your life 👍

Of the lightning interrupted bits I manage the watch, the Dees looked good. I honestly think MFC are a chance to surprise a few and nab a newfangled wildcard berth.

Yes, much better than changing the name of Ormond (the suburb of my childhood) 😁

Better than Royal Parade I say 😁

Yes indeed. Was a bit worried with Walsh copping a knock very early but he got back into it and finished the game strongly. Jagga is quality. Good hit out for the Blues, showing some positive intent with the ball even if execution in front of goals needs to become more polished. Real test comes against Sydney next week. Not expecting a win but want them to at least be competitive for 4 quarters.

This! Walsh is valued internally for his mentality, professional approach to training, competetive nature and leadership qualities. He is Carlton's next captain. This is all factored into his contract price & length.

Spot on. I drove down Kingsway near Albert Park lake on the weekend and saw a partially errected footbridge. That will be just for the F1 GP and then dismanted.

I think 'FORS' is the statistical acronym for creating a forced turnover against your opposition. Anyways, Derksen will get a slot in the senior Carlton list. A bit harsh for Will White (who was good towards the end of last season) but the Blues need tall defensive cover more than a small foward and list spots are at a premium.

I watched the first half and then had to tske the boy to cricket practice so only caught snippets of Q3 & Q4. Dees looked very good. New boys Mihocek and Steele looked very good, Latrelle Pickett looks to be a livewire and Kentfield might have some potential. A very good first hit out by the Dees 👍

I did chuckle thinking "Trac, you are playing before what seems to be a Covid-19 lockdown sized crowd" From the hallowed halls of the MCG in the beating heart of Melbourne to a little stadium in the Gold Coast hinterland. Enjoy your time at Porpoise Spit CP3 😁

Saints looked quite good as the game went on. But then again, last year in a pre-season practice match Carlton won by 60 odd points against GWS only to lose to Richmond in Round 1 😁 GC Suns looked decent in the first quarter but really fell off as the game went on. They did have some key players out. Might be some worrying signs for their second tier players though? 🤔 I always like to assess things after 3 to 4 rounds of the real season, get a much better handle where things sit then.

TISM have a gig in Port Melbourne on 2 May 2026 [balaclava emoji].

I like the 80s retro vibe of 'C'mon Demons' makes me feel like tapping my moccasins whilst watching Ch7 VFL footy on a Sunday morning in my PJs whilst my mum made me toast 😁

If Motlop is put on the Long Term Injury (LTI) list then both E Hollands and Derksen can be signed up. That is what I anticipate will happen. Derksen looked good out there last night.

My lid is floating down Opossum Creek 😁

Jagga was very good, looks to be a quality footballer.

Yes. The Blues better sign him up. Looked handy out there.

Cornes does seem to have an axe to grind with MFC, its not just Dees fans imagining it.

I think I was on DL for close to a year before I 'came out' as a Blues fan 😁 I try not to mention CFC too often but sometimes people ask me about what my perspective is as a Carlton supporter. Anyways, enough of this distraction. I quite like 'Awaken Your Demon in 2026', a definite double thumbs up from me 👍👍

Thanks Ghostwriter 😊 I am also a Dees member too ... I just suspend the MFC love on 29 March 😁

Oh no, I have been outed by Chat GPT! 😮😁 I never played for Carlton, I actually played for Collingwood U-19s a few times. It is true what Brodie Mihocek says about Pies supporters! [still shuddering after all these years] I am am a Blues supporter since childhood. Up the Baggers 😁
