It was a dirty day, especially with Lever doing down, but good sides win games when things aren't going their way.  We did that today and showed real maturity after it took us 15 minutes to get going.   

The big one for me was our back line.  With Lever going down it left us with just Oscar as a tall defender, and we still kept them to a low score while also doing some wonderful things across half back.  Jetta was immense, Hibberd did some good things, Lewis and Vince provided calm heads and even Harmes patrolled across there once Lever went down.  It's becoming a real strength of our side.

Our mids were smashed in the clearances, which was really surprising.  But on the flip side they worked their backsides off once we went 3 goals down and helped to turn things around.  Oliver and Gus, in particular, were fantastic.

And then you have Hogan and Macca who both kicked bags and showed how awesome they can be together for a long, long time.  Awesome stuff.

Special mention to Bayley Fritsch as well.  What a pick up this kid is.  When we traded Watts for the pick we took him with we clearly knew what we were doing.  26 touches and 14 marks is a day out and he just keeps getting better and better.

We are 8-3 and playing great footy.  We now get an 8 day break and hopefully Lever isn't too badly injured and won't need to spend too much time on the sidelines.  Bring on the Filth and our 7th win in a row!!

Yeah it wasn’t pretty but it’s still a 50 point win. Good work by the boys who were under real siege.

2nd on the live ladder....best % in the AFL right now.  Kept a little in the tank for our arch enemy next week in the Big Freeze.

Great result against a scrappy desperate Doggies & Razor's best efforts to keep them in the match.

Chances of that happening are getting slimmer and slimmer.

Was that James Magner in the rooms?

Solid Win. Bulldogs came at us early, played with quick ball movement and looked quicker than us. Had a good run with the umps to start.

Hope Lever is ok.

How can a player of Fritsch’s build take 14 marks in senior AFL football?

Freak.

We have won SIX in a row peeps first time since 2006  

Game was interesting and we were at times sloppy with our disposal which is probably a bit of a hang over from last weeks game. 

Good to see a game where we came from behind and didn’t have it all our own way. 

Congrats Jones on ur 250 game. 

Go Dees.

ABC grandstand are saying they have spoken to Melbourne people and we are worried it's an ACL. Let's hope they are just being pessimistic

I have worded up my partner for tonights shift and we are madly putting everyone in bed. Marvelous how the residents all chose of their own free will to have an early night. Almost never happens :)

(Good for the replay straight after i slip them all some extra "happy pills")

Razor's efforts in the first quarter were unjustified.

Brayshaw (39) and Oliver (38) combined for 77 disposals.

Brayshaw's disposal was shocking unfortunately.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
