3 Good Things v Brisbane

Featured Replies

1. keepingĀ BrisbaneĀ to 19 points in a half of football (and Geelong to 17) the backline can be pretty stingy

2. Hogan playing in to form

3.Ā winning away from home

Ā 

Ā 

1. Unlike other times where we have dozed off mid-game, this time when we woke up again we actually hit back instead of merely rebalancing.

2. Hogan has now played one good and one very good game to start the season, and is getting rewarded for work rate.

3. When we are at full intensity, we seem to be incredibly hard to score against and very capable of cutting off play and rebounding decisively.

Ā 

Honorable mention to Garlett for being the proverbial 'small forward you need to have' when nothing is coming easy.

 

1. Resilience shown by the team inĀ very tryingĀ sub-tropical conditions particularly after half-time. It appearsĀ that visits to the top end have ā€˜toughenedā€™ up the boys! Ā 

2. LionsĀ are definitely an improving side on Saturday nights performance and made the game a good contest,Ā but lacked finesse and meaningful firepowerĀ up forward.

3. A number of ā€˜unsungā€™ playersĀ some much maligned here made a positive contribution to the result at different stages of the match.

We moved up to sixth on the ladder.

We are sixth on the ladder.

We are sitting in 6th spot on the ladder.

Ā 


1. Going up a gear and getting the job done when we had to.

2. Hogan's epic tackle.

3. Fritsch's hands.

1. Hoganā€™s continued improvement

2. Jeff G coming good after last week

3. We won, maybe not the greatest win, but we got the 4 points

Ā 

1. We won

Ā 

2. We stopped the rotĀ 

Ā 

3. Our first half was good and all the players know they could've done better.

1. Clayton Oliver is a machine, best in tight hands in the game

2. Hogan and Garlett were matchwinners

3. We found a way to win when they had the momentum in the last

Exactly.Ā 

And goal kickingĀ is critical!!!!!

1. I didn't watch, so didn't know we gave up a 7 goal lead (yet again) until after the game was finished.

2. We won.

3. From all reports we won't have to put up with Bugg and his appalling goal kicking for too much longer.

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ā€˜G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sundayā€™s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0ā€“4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

  • GAMEDAY: Geelong

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demonsā€”but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
