I’m off to the Doctor tomorrow morning for some of that Medicine 

Believe he’s been a liability all year

Cant have a bloke in the side for excellent finger pointing who won’t chase or tackle except on the odd occasion when he feels like it

Nonsense. He was great in the two finals that we won.

    LOL Melbourne player nearly takes a mark and some idiot teammate crashes into him and he drops the mark, resulting in an easy West Coast goal. Sums up our day. The worst team performance of the year. 

    Once again, I'm glad we served this up today and not next week. The idea of us playing this badly against the Pies is vomit-worthy.

    Viney leads the game with 11 clearances, next best is 5 for either team. God this kid has heart.

    make him sole skipper next year, throw in an injury free year along with Lever and Hogan, we can get back here next year

    He’s not alone, but Joel Smith has had a shocker today. Not sure it was a great move bringing him in for a prelim so early in his career. He still hasn’t shown he’s even afl standard, let alone ready to play finals. 

     

    Maybe that's a reflection of the level of confidence within the coaching group, and also the selectors... That they thought we need to change structure as many of us did as well...  suggests they were concerned about the opposition,  to bring in a raw kid not long back from a long-term injury.

     

    I think in the back of my mind, I might have thought we had done enough in one year... = satisfied with 2018 ???

    Not necessarily. Look at Western Dogs and Adelaide.

    After Jones performance today, he has no right to complain if he's stripped of the captaincy. He went missing again, when it mattered most.

    A truly poor football player. Delist.

    Tyson has been atrocious today. I haven't been on his back all year like some other players but I fully understand why he frustrates some supporters. Almost every decision he's made today has resulted in a West Coast advantage.

    The aftermath of today will be crucial. The Club has to be tough on this. This preformance cannot be repeated. 

    We know what happens when it does

    Just think back a year, we got beaten by Collingwood last round of the year to miss finals, with West Coast benifiting.

    This year we went two games better.  I hope Collingwood win next week and then next year we go two games further.

    • 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?
