    Nice work in the clinches there... Lingers going ok just wish he'd stop bombing it.  Nice finish from Dogga & BB

    Brown actually has 3 goals before quarter time. Pity the video ump squibbed it.

    I'd consider dropping Fritsch for McDonald. It's between him and Melsham IMO for that 3rd tall spot, and Melk has more tricks.

    Jackson is such a smart footballer - that kick to BBB was so imaginative.

    Phew. Was sure we’d concede a goal in Melbourne time then.

    Shocking decision that touch off the boot nowhere near the ball.

    Who are these people making the decisions?

    Melksham sure has more upside than Bailey

    Imagine thinking Weideman was better than Brown.

    Anyone who thought that had no idea.

    I wanted Brown in from day dot, and was a bit puzzled when he was dropped based on a mediocre performance on a wet deck with way too many talls (all 3 + Gawn and Jackson played that day vs Carlton).

    Fritsch didn't make that contest on wing with 15 seconds to go

    Zero stats to 1QT and a free against

    Just poor

    Really sloppy first quarter. Only for BB and their poor kicking we'd be in real trouble

    Amazing some people thought so.

    Needed the extra pre season though Chook.  Multiple leads, strength in contest and ground ball follow up.  Might play in our favour now touch wood.

    • 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?
