Effort is there.

 

Just some polish and we can absolutely win this.

    Surprised they're not finding a way to pay frees against us. 

    Unbelievable eh

    There's that last-second goal concession that we all knew was coming… 

    I spoke too soon. He's missed it. He's missed everything. That's very big for our confidence (mine at least) that we go in ahead at the break.

    It’s amazing how Dangerfield can scoop / throw out the ball right in front of an umpire and it’s play on.

    Think we will loose this unfortuanlty, have all the footy but kicking behinds and kicking it with pinpoint accuracy to their defenders

    My gut feel is similar. It has the makings of one of those games. The Port game, The North game last year, hell even the Freo game in 2002 where we led slightly at half time and Farmer daggered us on the siren.

    Man I hope I'm wrong

    Yet we can handball...and get pinged for throwing !!

    It's the Belmont effect !! ?

    Or how Tuohy can fend off a tackler, turn 180 degrees, take a step and then get nailed and he's had no prior opportunity.

    Considerable difference in interpretation on tackles. Shame the umpires can't mute the crowd sound

    We are still long bombing into the forward 50. Doesn't work on the narrow Geelong ground. LOWER THE EYES!

    Belmont? But I agree interesting what Danger gets away with and the snickey ruck nomination in front of goal was a classic. We just have to be aware that they are sly bastards. Rule needs to be changed.

    Harmes to Danger or Lewis to injure him. Pick an option.

    Being the usual enigma that he is 

    I feel like I haven’t even seen him at all.. not injured or anything? 


    We need to keep the effort and we're a chance. Try to go through the middle more and take our chances. Do we move Harmes onto Danger or keep Selwood under control?

    Hate mentioning it...does Chunk EVER look where he's kicking ?? Ffs ...kills momentum and effort

     

    Loving the effort, loving the pressure and loving the fact that, in hostile territory, we are more than serving it up to the enemy.

    We are right in this contest, and if we can keep the scoreboard pressure up then a win is there for the taking!

    • 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.
