Starting to take more risks with dispoal and trust a little more...numbers at the ball

 

Oh my god we actually have players at the back of the pack. It’s a miracle!

    Amazing what a bit of scoreboard pressure can do.

    Suddenly the Hawks are not so composed and our frantic game style is working in our favour

    Helps when we hit a few targets

    For sure....Harmes movement from the 2nd quarter also got us going

    Our best quarter of the year will mean [censored] all if we don't bring it again in the last. Can we just bury Hawthorn for once?

    Why you play Salem off a wing!!!

    connection... this is why I wanted Salem on the wing... since earlier in season.

    Start him from the wing...  so he is free from minding a half forward...  but he pushes back to the back-half to assist... and to run and carry forward,  and connect with Forwards. 

    As a good winger should be doing,  anyway.

    Tracc into the middle brings a bit of  space to move in for Hunt and TmAc

    exactly !!!       Tracca is too slow and cumbersome,  on a f/flank.

    He kills our F50 with his lack of.

    Harmed has been outstanding. Back to second half of last year form today

    What the complete F is happening??

    team balance is happening.

    Wow hopefully we can hold off the 21 hawk players on the ground in the 4th this umpiring is beyond diabolical

    Just heard the best description of a blatant free kick which was not given against Roughead. A commentator called it "the good bloke rule." Enough said.

    School kid stuff. Can't kick, can't handball and still to many in close at ball and no one spreading. Its not that hard !

    We actually disposed of the ball better that quarter and looked for players in the red and the blue. Amazing stuff. Also spreading. Come on boys. 30 more minutes. Hawks off 6 days. They must be tired after chasing us that qtr.

    Harmes has been fantastic. I love Salem on the wing, it's great to have brains out there!

    Much better from Hibbo, too.

    It hasn't been pretty, and we're so low on confidence that you can see the jitters every time we get the ball, but geez if we can bring this home, it might give the boys something to think about.

    Loved seeing a smile on TMacs face, too!

    Let's go Dees! I'm here but have a special guest so only 97% focused instead of the usual 100.

    As good a tunnel ball throw after being done for holding the ball

    F... I hate those cheating maggots

    • 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?

    • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?

    • NON-MFC: Round 10

      The Sir Doug Nicholls Round kicks off in Darwin with a Top 4 clash between the Suns and the Hawks. On Friday night the Swans will be seeking to rebound from a challenging start to the season, while the Blues have the Top 8 in their sights after their sluggish start. Saturdays matches kick off with a blockbuster between the Collingwood and Kuwarna with the Magpies looking to maintain their strong form and the Crows aiming to make a statement on the road. The Power face a difficult task to revive their season against a resilient Cats side looking to make amends for their narrow loss last week. The Giants aim to reinforce their top-eight status, while the Dockers will be looking to break the travel hoodoo. The sole Saturday game is a critical matchup for both teams, as the Bulldogs strive to cemet their spot in the top six and the Bombers desperately want break into the 8. Sundays start with a bottom 3 clash between the Tigers and Kangaroos with both teams wanting to avoid the being in wooden spoon contention. The Round concludes with the Eagles still searching for their first win of the season, while the Saints look to keep their finals hopes alive with a crucial away victory. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
