Its not my system. Its Champion datas. Its also now supercoach points.

Not joking. 5 points. Only players that get injured in the first 10 minutes finish with that score.

Agreed.  Ineffective kicks are a Spargo forte 

 
 

Bedford and Pickett all to come out of today. 

We are way off it, just a dismal performance.

27 points flatters us.

    How are the umpires still so blind? 
    the crowd noise means nothing

    Predicted it, probably all West Australians, it's the ones they haven't paid to us.

    absolutely

    The result in isolation is ok, but the performance was ****house. Anyway, it matters little at the moment.

    Yes but he wins the ball and has a crack, more than a lot of others

    Worst part of the 10 week break is that we have time to build up our hopes again.

    That allows the team to kill our hopes twice in one season.

    All of this.


    Great handball from Bedford and goal to Kozzie. Something to look forward to. 

    27 points, can already see Goodwin’s presser. “Had some great opportunities early to put scoreboard pressure on, they capitalised on a 5 minute lapse at the end of the first quarter, we weren’t efficient with out ball use. At the end of the day that last patch in the first quarter was the difference.”

    He won’t be asking for accountability, he won’t be honest that there are players that are just not doing enough. 

    FWIW Viney, Bedford, and Kozzie made that sh—show worth watching.

    @Lord Nev how's Simpson's 1 ruck idea going? Gawn getting smashed by Nik Nat AND Hickey. Making one of the best rucks in the game look like a simpleton.

    Geez imagine being the sort of person that, with everything going on, jumps on the internet to restart a footy argument.

     

    We need Yze to be coach, he has coached under the coach of the century. Goodwin is a Essendon reject a team that has done nothing for 20 years. We need Hawthorn's game plan not Essendon's.

    We are nowhere near being a contender I’m afraid. On the evidence of today - one game of course - we have not progressed at all. If anything we looked worse.
    Not  that it matters now.

    Our kicking is deplorable. 

    I have used that sentence for 15 years as my main gripe and nothing has been done to fix it.

    Didn't help today that about 14 of our players were pathetic.

    • 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?
