Tuggers celebrating goals like they matter. 

 
 

No surprise to see the Tigers get on top here.  If you're watching it carefully, the mistakes are coming from the depth players who are being given a run today.  It also means that our work from the kick outs, and even the run from defence, isn't working how we'd like.  

That's what JLT is for, though.

I want Salem to be a midfielder - but he just isn't. He is far more effective down back.

Yep agree King. He's just not quick enough instinct/reaction-wise. Nothing wrong with being a good disposer coming off HB though.

 

Petty has been one positive in our backline so far today.  Has already taken three good grabs and has used it quite well.  Positive signs for him.

Score anyone?

 


13 scoring shots to 10... hm....

I’d seriously play Petty or Frost over OMac. He’s getting outrun by Nankervis for god sake.

He's slow in the head and slow in general play. He reminds me so much like Garland in their seemingly lackadaisical approach.

Spot on.

spargo... 65% gametime for 1 possession

He’s been rubbish. He was poor last match too. He doesn’t get involved a lot, so he needs to make the most of his opportunities and currently isn’t. Jeffy however has been good the past few marches and should be in the team round 1 on form.

Pruess has been a big disappointment today. Someone his size getting tackled and pinged by small rejects like Mac Weller is an embarrassment. He’d wanna turn his form around or he won’t be playing much senior footy this year. Very uncompetitive today.

Stands out when our defence is butchering the delivery

  • 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?
