    Wondering if the Tigers reintroduce the squirrel grip in their game with Port Adelaide today?

    I heard Peter Filandia was a late inclusion for the Tiges.

    Sack Hardwick, he's lost the players. No plan B, no plan A ,yadda yadda yadda.

    Gee and they wonder why umpires get abused.

    Yep - one shocking umpiring decision can turn a game around and if one game’s turned around, it can change a whole season.

    It’s a very entertaining game this Port and Richmond game. Being absolutely destroyed by average umpiring, but it’s good to watch.

    Looking forward to Jack Watts getting a medallion around his neck.

    Not a bad game. For those that watched it compare it to tmrw nite for the dees v kanga blockbuster. Chalk and cheese it will be.


    Not a great coaching performance by Hardwick. Took on Port at full strength with a weakened Tigers team and played head on football.

    Dumb... like Goodwin. His tactics against the Dogs were much better.

    If Port had kicked straight it would have been a ten goal loss.

    Loved seeing Hardwicks meltdown after the 100 metre penalty.

    But loved even more seeing and hearing that awesome crowd and seeing tens of thousands of human beings out socializing and enjoying themselves ...  god i hope we get our [censored] sorted out in Victoria really soon.

    Or the Hopeate insertion

    Maybe our game against Port was not too bad after all.

    Must admit , have seen some rippers in the last week. Freeo v C'wood, RV Port , Saints vs GC, WC vs someone else . All been good !!!

    M v A top of the tree.

    • PREVIEW: Sydney

      The two teams competing at the MCG on Sunday afternoon have each traversed a long and arduous path since their previous encounter on a sweltering March evening in Sydney a season and a half ago. Both experienced periods of success at various times last year. The Demons ran out of steam in midseason while the Swans went on to narrowly miss the ultimate prize in the sport. Now, they find themselves outside of finals contention as the season approaches the halfway mark. The winner this week will remain in contact with the leading pack, while the loser may well find itself on a precipice, staring into the abyss. The current season has presented numerous challenges for most clubs, particularly those positioned in the middle tier. The Essendon experience in suffering a significant 91-point loss to the Bulldogs, just one week after defeating the Swans, may not be typical, but it illustrates the unpredictability of outcomes under the league’s present set up.

    • 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?

    • POSTGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons pulled off an absolute miracle at the Gabba coming from 24 points down in the 2nd Quarter to overrun the reigning premiers the Brisbane Lions winning by 11 points and keeping their season well and truly alive.
