The 4 points should go to May. A deadset one man fortress.

(But to be fair, Salem, Trac, Rivers, Langdon, Lever and Weed were also great ).

A lot of passengers, though. Which is disappointing, but also kind of promising - imagine who we can beat if they get involved!

 

The back line as a whole did a magnificent job. 

 

The backline was incredible. We got shown up by the Dogs last week in terms of defending the width of the ground but we clearly lifted today. 

May should get 3 Brownlow votes. Lever and Hibberd weren't far behind. Rivers played well too.

 

 

Some embarassing comments in the match day thread.

@Demonland can u pls pin the game day thread for some Sunday laughs.

Steven May trade is a massive, massive win

Rivers looks very good too

We've got a real player there in Rivers.  Love his dash and courage, and he is a good user of the footy as well.

Trac - love love love ? All hail the chief of the back line Steven May. So good to beat St.Kilda ?Happy happy joy joy.

Missus just text the neighbours to assure them the fuzz don’t need to be called.

Same

Don't want to hear another word about the trade for May, i think his performances over the season and especially tonight have justified the pick 6.

A trade special.

And, if you go back and take a look, some shockers in the changes thread as well.

That was a big tick for Goodwin tonight.

Charlie Spargo, did little all game then laid the tackle of the match

Very happy, just a strange game and not used to seeing us win like that.

Yes i 100% agree.

Was impressive to be able to stop Aints scoring and actually rebound and control the game.

Lucky I went to the bottle shop and stocked up today.   Ugly game,  take the win,  turnover still a massive issue


First time under Goodwin that we executed a specific gameplan for a specific side. Some horrendous turnovers as we tried to implement a possession game with our skill set, however that was a confidence builder. Reminded me of what Geelong did to us. Denied the oppo their 1 wood first and foremost 

Big step - when was the last time we reversed the momentum and got the game back on our terms and won an arm wrestle? Probably 15 years. 

i thought we were going lose by 5 goals about 5 minutes into the 3rd quarter. 

 

Tough game to  watch in the last quarter however the Dees  did it for all of us supporters.

May and Petracca  were the two best players on the ground and couldn't split them. 

I want to give some credit to Josh Wagner he was consistent all night and he can hold his head high. Well done Josh.

Credit where it us due. That is 3 close games we have prevailed in - blues, suns and saints.

  • 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?
