Viney does some good work inside there on the wing.  Handballs to Tracc.  Why not the shepherd after that to give Tracc some extra space  / time??

We are so bad at supporting teammates. Shepherd, blocks, remonstrating....just non existent

    Pathetic Max. And how was Fritsch there?

    Clearly had no one forward of the ball to kick to.  

    Edit - not defending him there, but he normally kicks in that situation.  I think it's evident there was no one ahead of him so he made the decision to try and retain possession rather than give it away 50 metres down field.

    What a [censored] comedy of errors.

    Only needs Benny Hill Music to top it off

    Why handball when you can kick it.


    Are we doing training sessions or running sessions during 4 day breaks? Because we are leg dead again. Port, Sydney and now this. We are clearly recovering poorly for all the genius of Burgess. We should be off legs all 4 days. I bloody hope we haven't been running.

    How’d we cop Dwayne twice in a row. 


    Fumble Rivers, clean pickup Fyfe. Fumble Max, clean pickup Walters. Goal. Sums it up.

    Justin Longmiuer has been at the dockers for 5 minutes and they already have a better system than we do. 

    says everything that needs to be said about Goodwin really.

    Fritsch dumb. Rivers slow and lazy chasing. Gawn sloppy. That’s just such a [censored] goal to cough up.

    What a disappointing first season Kozzie has had. Yeah, he brings some pressure, but very little goal sense.

    Rare opportunity to actually kick through the middle and we decide not to take it, turnover and concede a goal. Story of the year 

     

    Pickett seriously. How does a small forward miss this??? He needs the rest of the season off. He isn’t ready. Barely touches it and when he does nothing happens.

    • 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?
