I can't believe I'm saying this and I know it's early in the JLT praccy matches, but the lack of contests are making the game a bit tame.It seems it's end to end footy with no real oomph. Have I gone too early on this??

It is a bit early 'spurs' and of course it's only practice match footy but yeah, it is really boring stuff to watch.

There has been zero pressure in these games so I guess we have to wait for the season proper.

So far it's about as interesting as last years AFLX footy.

...and just maybe it comes back to that old saying "be careful what you ask for".

Someone had to say it, but at the moment the emperor has no clothes.

 

 

I heard the commentator saying that Dixon won't be available in round 1. Nice.

Ryder rolled his ankle too, not sure how serious

Has the annual "dancing with your sister" cliche procession begun yet?

If not consider this the first offering.

Is that dancing with your sister, or a sister?

 

Freo play the Pies tonight.

Will be interesting to see how being back home affects Jesse's approach and his game. 

Any loss for the Pies is a good loss, pre-season or otherwise.  Wouldn't mind if Jessie has a day out!

13 mins in 1 mark, 1 kick. 0 goals.

More than half way through the 2nd quarter and 2 kicks, 2 handballs, 2 marks and 0 goals.

Head drop and chases given up on: 17

I was actually going to add 2 dummy spits.  To be fair though, he did improve his output by half time so he now has 2 marks, 2 kicks and 3 handballs.

Hogan looks completely disinterested.

Nice to see his new coach sorted out his attitude problem. Early days, but he looks to have the same interest in second efforts now, as he did the entire time he played with us.

Not the work ethic of a champion player.


Hogan is past history. Stuff him. I hate to say it but the filth will be hard to knock off this year.

  • 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?
