Interesting free against max there right at the end of the QTR , sounds like the umps are going to call him for the "straight arm block" again

    Can someone shed some light how there was no 50m penalty paid when Jones (StK) was [censored] around and not getting off the ball??

    Absolute [censored] take, it was no different to what Fritsch did and he was penalised 50m.

    Nice to see set shots going between the bigger middle sticks. Good work boys. 

    Dramatic turn around in the number of possessions during that term

    at around the ten minute mark we were about ten down and we finished the quarter 11 up

    That quarter turned when we got on top in the middle.

    We clearly have the ability to move the ball and find scoring options against their defence. Need to stay on top in the middle.

    4 goals from 4 set shots.

    Great start from the Dees!

    Not bad from 3 less inside 50s.? Guess Tracs 70 m goal doesnt count.

    Edited by leave it to deever

    Ominous sign right on 1/4 time.

    Max pinged for the ridiculous straight arm rubbish they crucify him with. Him and only him

    Weren't we playing the Saints the last time they pulled the rubbish on him?

    Colour of the jumper only plausible explanation.

    Jones found the uncontested target

    Kicked it over his head!!


    Which team is coming out for the second quarter? That is always the worry. We are obviously prone to the Saints leg speed and quick ball movement so we have to maintain the intensity. Here is hoping!

    Need more from Gus and Oliver. They both had stinkers last week. Need to lift.

    Easy fix  -  run and jump at the ball and tap to advantage 

    He'll adjust

    That's what I thought - the game we ended up losing by 2 pts? Many dubious 50s in that game too

    We were down 0-3 and then 3-6 in clearances but finished the quarter 8-8. 

    The midfield battle is crucial.

    We had Jones on a wing at one stage, which isn't my ideal wing line up.

     Time for Ratten to make a few adjustments and shut us down.

    Slighty harsh on Oliver.  Had 7 touches and 3 clearances that term.

    Agree with Gus.  Viney only the 1 touch as well.

    Who is picking up Butler, can’t tell on TV? Must shut him down.

      After kicking the first goal of the match the Demons were always playing catch up against the Saints in Alice Spring and could never make the most of their inside 50 entries to wrestle back the lead.
