Ok but totally biased against Viney.  Hit up Brown for a goal. Hit up Kozzy for a goal.  Kicked super goal in the third. 
Nine tackles. At the contest.

“Very good game”.

Agree Viney average

Gawn no idea of where his mids are clueless ruckwork

Oliver..... sensational

Fritsch Dermie was right

Gawn had 16 (from 56, so 28.6%)

English had 3 from 14 (21.4%).

Jackson 3, McDonald 2.

Thanks mate!

Where'd you find them btw?


Going on about umpiring like Essendon fans ignores the fact that we still should have run over the top of them but froze and fell to bits against a side one player down on the bench.

Agree with most but not with Viney or Hunt both tried extremely hard and and we’re in our best.

Gawn - Dominated hitouts department

Pickett - Costly early miss

Brown - Costly 2 behinds (and 1 on the full)

Fritsch - Above the knee

Viney - Better than r18

Petracca - Clangers superseded brilliance

McDonald - Lose more weight? (lol)

Oliver - Possible 2 votes

Hunt - 611 metres gained!

Neal-Bullen - Stop getting smothered

May - Some dumb FA's

Salem - Losing his AA 

Harmes - Didn't notice him

Jackson - Rising star slider

Lever - Our best defender

Spargo - Pressuring has declined

Brayshaw - Just a game

Hibberd - Not our worst

Langdon - Season low numbers

Jordon - costly dropped mark

Rivers - rookie soldiering on

Petty - always seems unlucky

Umpiring: A please explain

Disagree with many

trac was very good

petty and Rivers solid

hunt was good

Browns first half was poor but he did show signs in the second. But the damage was done by then

There’s no way the game has passed Viney, proved again what he will do for the club, was in and under all night.

As I said during the week, the umpires will destroy our game chances, once again, through incorrect use of the whistle (in any way that they 'can get away with'). The attempt is made in every game the MFC plays.

We were In it all night. Midfield matched the dogs, Gawn dominant. 

We were wasteful in attack, again, they were not. 

We missed several gettable shots, they did not.

We failed to take our difficult chances, they did not. 

We got a rough ride from the umpires, they did not. 

Game over...

What's most frustrating is not losing a game like that it's burning points against the crows, giants, pies and Hawks

Agree - had our chances, can';t kick straight.  BBB first two "attempts" were actually pathetic.

It is inconceivable that WBD could break the rules only 11 times in 350 contests.

It really does feel like a syndicated, 'old boys' conspiratory against the Dees, that many amongst us cannot for some reason accept or acknowledge. It has pressed us, for years; it is still pressing us after we have - as a footy club - re-organised and re-structured against the odds and expectations of 'the rest of them'. We live in hope, as a consequence. Will our Board ever do something about it? Nearly all of the consequences of last night's footy match against the Doggies were in the hands of the umpires and were so delivered across the game without sanction, excepting of course those few that were too blatant to be ignored. However, the power of the whistle applied and re-applied to quell the eveness of the game that would lead to a different end result.

Player A,B,C,D, etc:   didn't handle conditions.

Lots of dumb kicks

Kicking straight into an opponent who earned a 'smother' stat without even waving their arms around - when does that get fun?

  • 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?
