Now that's what we lack coming inside... a beautiful finish kick

 
 

Umpires aside we are struggling big time. Very same same. Lots of players out of form. Can't score easily and defence is starting to falter 


What about the free kick for Weightman just jumping on players heads and getting no where near the ball? [censored] [censored].

    And again, all our hard work undone because we don't man up. Bont free? Lever outdone by a third gamer?

    Neither of those two disposals that got to Bontempelli were handballs.

    Well done umpires. Pay [censored] frees all night so that our players can’t take a tackle and reset. 

    They've won. We should get ten frees in the last five minutes

    Hagen done bugger all all night and now kicks this. That's the difference, they've kicked the goals when they had to, we haven't


    Game on the line and our midfield gets touched up. Nothing more obvious.

    Holding the ball, then elbow into Salem’s head - ball up

    Harmes and Hibberd are hopeless.

     

    Yep they've both done very little all night. 

    Would have have had Harmes on Bont and Viney on Libba all night

    Another coaching fail.

    AND TO ADD SALT TO THE WOUND, HANNAN SEALS THE GAME.

    Reload we will beat them if we meet again in the finals

    We were poor. Gave the dogs so much space

    Good mini comeback, but when the chips are down Bont is  king out of the centre


    Win or lose. Goodwin needs to lose his [censored] about the free kick count. Make it public. Times to do the Clarkson tactics. We are being shafted in a massive way.

     

    Fair few plodders out there for us tonight. Brayshaw, Salem, Harmes, Hibberd, Langdon all poor.

    That’s one win in the last month. Coaching staff needs to reset this group. Season is teetering on the edge now.

    • 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?
