Doggies don't like teams that bring pressure. Tigers, us and now Swans have found them wanting. They look good racking up 100 point wins against bottom feeders but not sure they'll get the ultimate success unless they find a harder edge.

Was going to post the same thing

 

Might have to get on the Tiger train next Friday. If they can beat Brisbane and we get over the line against the Hawks it's hard to see us travelling interstate again after we play in Perth in round 21. 

 

Assuming Richmond and West Coast finish this round in the 8, here's the top 8's record vs the top 8:

  1. Melbourne - 6-0
  2. Sydney - 5-2
  3. Geelong - 5-3
  4. Bulldogs - 4-4
  5. Brisbane - 3-4
  6. West Coast - 2-4
  7. Port - 2-5
  8. Richmond - 1-6

The media will now roar Cats and Swans. Let hope we keep flying under the radar. Hand up MFCSS expected to be fifth at weekend close. How beautifully wrong I was

Me too.

My calculations have that being a 16 point round for us.

Not sure about your maths but a great win by any calculation. 

 

JUH was less ready for that debut and had equivalent impact to Watts on QB. But the commentators talked him up at every opportunity. What a joke. Not even close to ready for AFL and certainly not against the Swans. 

Love it !!! The football “experts” and commentators have been rubbing themselves hard under the desk with excitement for the Bulldogs and the Bont.  Finally shown they are not premiership definites just yet !! 


Big round next week too. All 3 opposition matches could help be games clear.. Go Dockers, Tigers and Suns. All have a good chance.

I prefer the word [censored]wits rather than commentators.

I like commontatoes. 

After the Giants loss, I was fully expecting to be 5th by now. Instead we are a game clear on top and 2 games and % clear of 5th. Shows just how important Thursday's win was (and perhaps not to overreact after a loss - every team has them).

Cheers for the mental image.

If they had their say in the All Australian vote, they’d have Hunt as an All Australian Wingman..

This doesn’t need a new thread.

You’re right. But there’s been a tonne of even less necessary threads. And for some reason they’re usually the ones that take off. ?

I was about to ask who the two teams were that we hadn’t played yet. Christ it’s been a long week.

  • 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?

    The Demons pulled off an absolute miracle at the Gabba coming from 24 points down in the 2nd Quarter to overrun the reigning premiers the Brisbane Lions winning by 11 points and keeping their season well and truly alive.
