    In golf we just press pause and then recommence whereupon the Lightning ceases 

    There is a lightning tracker app, which shows lightning at Redcliffe which is very close by.

    Wonder if we get 2 pts if she's called off...??

    Absolutely no chance. We are 33 points up with 15 mins left. Why would we give that up???

     

    They better resume the game in our forward pocket and not in the centre

    If this game had started when it should have it would be over. 8:10 on a Monday night was B/S

    There’s no doubt the (w)AFL will find a way to give West coast 8 points of premiership points under a modified Nicholls-Margetts system whereupon the home time finding itself behind at the cessation of play shall have 100 points added to their score and an extra 4 premiership points awarded for the inconvenience

    So now players cool down and go out again? Hello injuries....


    Solid way to give west coast a rest

    Surely there is the AFL equivalent of the duckworth Lewis rule from the cricket? 

    The game is over.

    Absolutely. Thank WA government and their [censored]. Could have played yesterday but no, 7 days to quarantine 🙄 coz 6 is not enough but 14 is too much. Flogs. 


    I know is most footy comps the rule is if the game is called off after half time the team in front is awarded the win

    Judging by the weather radar it will take at least 30mins for the storm clouds to pass

    • 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?

    • POSTGAME: Brisbane

      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.
