Some players are having bad games. 

Good. It gives them focus to train out those deficiencies in the coming weeks. 

Video to be studied very closely.

He’ll struggle to get a game this year.

I feel like he'll be on the bubble every game, but won't get dropped once injuries start.

Brayshaw probably to the main offender, which is annoying because he is a ball magnet.

Yes, his disposal hasn't been good so far today, but I'll put it down more to it being the first half of real competitive footy for the year than anything else.  His disposal isn't always that flash regardless.

The Wagners and Hore don’t look up to it.

I thought Hore looked alright myself.

    ANB also very ordinary 

    You are just realising that now?

    Richmond winning in the air and on the ground. Who is 38 for them? Killing us in the air.

    Is number 34 for us Hore?

    He has done ok INHO.

    Poor disposal from gus, nibbler, JKH and stretch hurt us.

    RIchmond spread brilliantly and opened us up. 

    I have not seen Dusty up close before. I now see why he is so hard to stop!


    Steady on guys. Even Winx gets beaten in barrier trials!

    They moved dusty onto the ball that quarter and the whole game changed immediately. 


    that midfield combo of oliver, brayshaw, and harmes with trac and salem coming in would have to be one of the most exciting group of 21-23 year old mids i've seen

    shame gus can't hit a target and trac can't kick a set shot

    they're basically full strength, and when they had the centre square combo of martin, cotchin, prestia plus titch edwards coming in they were so much stronger than the group that we had up against em, which at one stage seemed to include stretch and jkh

    And for all that, we're on level terms at half time.  Funny that.

    Who would have thought that playing two Wagners wouldn’t cancel each other out? 

    Petty looks promising. 

    Oliver quite possibly could be the GOAT.

    Just wait till we add Viney back into the midfield mix with Gawn knocking it down they're throats.  It will be orgasmic to watch.

    I had a feeling that the rotations through the midfield were biting us.

    Richmond were doing their flood dump kick attack that quarter.

    Weeds seemed to get caught under the ball a few times.

    We need that tall option to take the contested marks

    We’ve shown lots of promise for an exciting season ahead for mine

    FMD!! I'm reading some negative [censored]. It's half time in a [censored] JLT match FFS .Settle down lads.

    Bit bitter but optimistic, wouldn't you say?

    There wasn't much else to say about the second quarter. Just sucked. Nothing much more you can say. Noones slitting wrists.

    IDees very ragged and being belted at ground level. And sorry  to say but Petracca looks slow, overweight and not that interested.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

    • GAMEDAY: Hawthorn

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.
