Post Match Discussion - Round 12 (never in doubt)

Featured Replies

Finally get to rejoice now all have gone out.

So happy to be wrong. Impressive effort all around Dees, players, coaches all.

Had to look at the scores more than twice.

Well done Dees....lets keep it up.

Pleasantly gobsmacked :)

 

Stretch is slowly becoming a weapon. He looks really flashy and evasive and he's not a bad kick either.

Dunn played perhaps his best game ever.

Credit to Dawes, even though he looked a bit proppy he certainly contributed for forward pressure and he held on to a couple of good marks, which is all he needs to do.

Also, one of the biggest surprises was Gawn and Spencer's pairing. Spencer wasn't amazing like Gawn, but he didn't lower his colours or look lost out there

 

Don't want to be the one that jinxes it but how has Demonland not crashed yet?

Well done nasher and others.


Awesome win, I have so many Geelong mates, have been waiting years to get stuck into them! I'm still [censored] about the St Kilda game though! Haha

Last week was more furious with the players than I have been for years. This week, they can get stuffed because it's the first time I've missed a Vic game I could have been at in years - so of course we won!!!

Brayshaw is a complete footballer. Amazing.

We kicked a big score but we won the game in defence - which shows what the best Paul Roos coached side can do.

Best thing is there's still plenty of improvement and blokes to come back in!

Still pinching myself!

 

Canr blame you. Im giving them next week to produce a club defining win down at Geelong. If they cant do it, I am done too.

Just thought I'd repost this here.


I really like that Im not searching through "Changes for Next Week" looking for hope.

I can't f-ing wait to play Carlton if we keep this brand of footy up. Nothing bruise free about it. I hope when we play the lions that Viney and co hammer that [censored] Mitch Robinson.

We are finally a hard at it team!

I went to create the "Changes for Next Week" thread and couldn't do it. Need to let this one settle a bit before I start thinking about which 1-3 players will be very stiff (depending on Garland and vandenBerg with Hogan a given).

I'm still relatively speechless. I never thought before the game it was going to be some sort of run of the mill belting like many were posting, and I knew we had the midfield cattle to compete there, but I never in a million years could have foreseen us kicking 113 points, especially given Dawes didn't kick one.

I haven't been able to watch anything except the highlights, but from what I was able to glean off patches on the radio and the articles written so far, as well as the stats, our midfield is finally coming together. Gawn's presence is no coincidence to this, I'm sure, and we've now got all of Jones, Vince, Viney and Tyson playing together at once. Then when you have a 22 playing together, you can get the job done anywhere, anytime.

The future is bright, and today showed that the present (i.e. 2015) does not have to be the dull result last week suggested.

I wonder if we may have 'turned a corner' today?

Selwood an absolute champion, a bit churlish sledging him.

Sellwood is a cheat simple as that and has absolutlely no Grace appalling indivigual Ducks throws cheats and gets away with it cannot stand him

The best thing was that with our midfield so on top, our makeshift forward line managed to function as well. Spencer, Gawn, ANB and Matt Jones all made very valuable contributions in addition to the "genuine" forwards in Dawes and Garlett. The question on everyone's lips before the game was, "how are we going to score?", and in the end we did it more easily than we have all year.

The midfield is everything really.

1. Cripps $1.80

2. Hogan $4.50

3. Brayshaw $9.00

Could someone let me know how Watts was today?

He was good - playing with a lot more confidence since coming back.


Made it home, good to see a lot less pessimism on the boards than before the game. Fantastic game to watch and great to see a good turn out of Dees supporters down the highway, bearing in mind 28.000 was the biggest attendance at KP this season, sure Enright would account for a few more Cats fans but there was a good smattering of Red and Blue around the ground from the Players stand to the Gary Ablett Terrace. I'm sick of the BS "they only let 200 of us in" whenever we play there. That was a load of crap Sam Newman got stuck into us about over 10 years ago and it's stuck - the facilities then were absolute crap, unlike now,

We'll see a few more wins this year, we need to remember we got smashed by Fremantle, Sydney and Hawthorn and were in winnable positions in other losses. These wins are no longer upsets.

 

lazy [censored] bastards. we should have beat the [censored] by 10 goals

We can blame Mission

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
