How was his kick that should have been spoiled over the line that Weid fortunately ended up marking and then his up and under to the North defender, instead of lowering his eyes.

The guy is finished and should have retired at the end of 2018.

Found space and the Pill to hit targets that lead to 3 goals

Melksham, Hannan, Spargo, Fritsch and Weideman have laid 4 tackles between them.

Surprisingly, Melksham has 2 of them (Hannan and Spargo 1 each).

Weideman is not there to tackle. His role is to mark or neutralize contests. That’s his forward pressure. And he has done it very well.

    Also, fitness is going to come into this.

    This is where Burgess will make his coin.  Both sides off a four day break.  Hopefully we have more in the tank than the Roos.

    If the umpires will stay out of the game we will win.

    To an extent I don't care if we win by 2 goals or 20 goals from here, we have just got to GET THE JOB DONE.

    i somewhat agree as it's 4 days between our last game 

    just want us to kick away a bit 3-4 goals I'll be happy

    Why must we always play on 

    because we're the dumbest team in the league? 

    Come on mate you should know this by now 


    Brayshaw WTF


    Spargo giving Bennell a lesson on how to play in the forward line. Spargo will keep his spot next week by the looks of it!

    Hollywood again from Trac

     

    Too casual Trac

    T Mac is finished. Honestly this should be his last game. He isn’t even close to AFL standard anymore.

    • 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?
