Gawn - a dominant game

Oliver - an elite performance 

Petracca - outstanding second half

Salem - career best game

Langdon - great first half

Neal-Bullen - important negating game

May - polished and inspiring

McDonald - provided strong presence

Hunt - was used well

Tomlinson - reliable and efficient 

Pickett - exciting forward presence

Rivers - great first half

Spargo - limited but effective 

Viney - great first quarter

Sparrow - effective holding game

Jones - justified his selection 

Fritsch - had limited impact

Jackson - an almost performance 

Brayshaw - rarely imbued confidence 

Jetta - experience proved valuable

Lever - was mostly reliable

Jordan - was rarely noticed

Can’t argue with most of that, although Jordon did well imo. I think he adds important balance to our midfield, and had 20 in the end.

Jordon with a game high 9 tackles along with 20 touches. Pretty bloody good for a second gamer. 

 

I love Joeboy's analysis every week, but one thing we seem to keep forgetting.  It's a team game.  We dominated possession and given it is only round 2, hopefully the errors that irk us all, will gradually be ironed out. 

 

I'm pretty stoked tonight, given the occasion and what that occasion would/should have meant to St. Kilda. 

My 3 word analysis?  You Bloody Bewdy.

 

 

Joeboy - most positive analysis

 

But Jordon was good. Does the hard stuff the let Oliver and Tracc do what they do.

And Kozzie - he's a star

 

Agree with most but Spargo was very effective. Always busy and always good vision

Off just 65% game time


Just thought I might put this in here if that's ok 'joeboy'...

Where are all those Oliver can't hurt you knockers tonight?

Hah, hah, hah...

Harsh on Jordan.

Absolutely - joeboy must have gone to the kitchen to make a cup of tea in the second quarter when Jordon got 10 disposals.

I thought Rivers' second half was better than his first!

Harsh on Jordon and Spargo. Playing their roles superbly at the moment.

Joe boy sees things his way.  Then we can read all the corrections.

we all see things in our own perception 

great to have a basic analysis, even if I don’t agree ...often even.


Completely wrong in regards to Jordan and Fritsch took most of our marks inside 50

  • 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?
