    So bloody proud of the boys. Weekend can only get better if Colliwobbles appear again and they go out in straight sets! About to watch replay

    Anyone considered a possible repeat of 64? Dees and pies? So proud of the boys last night. No voice left today.

    In losing last night, Hawthorn becomes the first club in the current top-eight era to go out of the AFLFinals⁠ ⁠ in straight sets twice . They are now 0-4 in finals since the 2015 flag.

    Did we get the rub of the green with the umpiring?

    I thought it was pretty even.

    Not even close. I thought we got the obvious ones where we were impeded, and didn't get the obvious throws and HTB. Lewis is generally pretty fiery but he went off his tree at Nicolls for that non-decision against Roughy

    For the first time in 20 odd years, I might throw Murdoch a couple of bucks to get his paper...

    I thought even too. Pretty bad lack of recognition on this board for a decent negating effort by the Hawks for a good amount of time and executed their skillful possession game well. Took away our strengths and had their chances to make it tight. We obviously are a class above in pressure and took our chances. But no, UmPiReS TrIed tO WiN tHe GaMe foR thE HaWkS

    Yeah a member so that’s good news, telling my bride I am contemplating dropping over a grand on flights my not be though.

    Tell her you’ll drive over to save $. Then after a suitable amount of time allegedly “doing some research” come back to her solemnly and declare that you have figured out it would be cheaper to fly and takes less time which gives you time to take her out to dinner and a movie and give her foot massage. Problem solved!!!

    If anyone else has any problems they need solving I will be here all week ?

    Wet Toast will be a tough gig 

    Darling and Kennedy will be playing this time

    I think our defence has gone up a level on that round 22 match too. But yes a massive effort required and a little bit of luck our way and we can match it with them and win. I'm less impressed with their footy IQ than I am with hawthorns, so I don't think they can negate our game style and we'll have a bit of a high quality shootout again.

    Kennedy looked pretty off the pace most of the game last week. Dont forget he was playing on a bloke who was coming in for his first game of the year in a miracle recovery. Frosty will be a much tougher opponent. 

    Darling hardly set the world on fire last week and Collingwood have no key defenders.

    Huge shoutout to our defence. Hawthorn were on top at times but we never coughed up a run of goals like we would have earlier in the year.

    Hibberd is so important back there. Frost and OMac have grown. Jetta is a rock. And Lewis is playing his best footy he has played for us in the last 2 weeks.

    Tommy Mac always been a good player, now elite. If Jetta was unlucky for AA so was this bloke.

    Anyone think the pre match stuff presented by Hawthorn was utter crap?

    The compere’s performance  was very ordinary compared with Robbo’s class.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
