Turner has 12 days between now and next game so won’t be out with concussion protocols 

Bears will slaughter us the way we played today - stagnant ball movement and atrocious disposal will play right into their hands

Problem is our next game is on Thurs 23 June which is 10 days away.

    I would prefer us to play one less tall forward and get some more pressure, movement and separation.

    Turner will miss the next game but May should be back.

    May owes us big time. Mitch Brown & Daw not the answer. It's soooo annoying that after last week Mitch got another run. Maybe inject more youth with Laurie in and Neal- Bullen to find form. We can't have so many HFFs not hitting the scoreboard.

    Out: Turner, M Brown

    Time to mix up the forward line and midfield mix. 

    We don’t have quality talls so there’s no point playing 2 of them. 

    We’re slow down back, we’re slow up forward and we lack midfield rotations. 

    Hunt for some much needed pace across half back (rather than deep), Harmes permanent CHF, Brayshaw in to the midfield/forward rotations.

    Those calling for Weidemann to be recalled to the Seniors should look at the VFL stats. He kicked one goal in a team that thrashed Collingwood in the VFL.

    Sensible suggestions. And bring in Ablett, Blight and Bartlett.

    It’s not about individual players. Most of these players are premiership players. It’s about not following the game plan. The players are kicking sideways, hand passing galore until the forward line is absolutely flooded with opposition players. Mostly. Or kicking the ball always to Gawn in the field. He’s triple teamed by opposition players.

    Just had 9 days off. Cant whinge.

    Yeah but a 9 day then 10 day break means you can’t really plan a few days away from the club to refresh mentally. Teams with 12-14 days will often take 3 days or so away from the club before getting back into the work for the balance of their bye

    You know who we're really missing? I never thought I'd say this, but Joel Smith would have been very handy to have on hand the last few weeks.

    They have to take 4 days. Every club. CBA mandated.

    The short bye likely explains why our players had a nice dinner during the week. Sensibly getting in some festivities so they don’t overdo it this week. 


    Brown and Sparrow should be the first ones dropped. 

    After that, take your pick.

    Left field idea. Move Trac to the forward line and Brayshaw inside. If Goodwin is all about reward performance then he has to look at Tracs form in the middle. It is well below par. Brayshaw on the other hand has been in the top 3-4 players for the last month.

    I like a small forward line but with our ball movement this is a death wish. 
     

    If we spread like wild fire from  turnover then it may work but slow transition will make it near impossible to score.

    Out: Rubbish performances 

    Honestly the game against Brisbane feels like a finals Game already, elimination game.

    Lose and it's 4 in a row at the MCG! Can't see ourselves recovering from that considering the trend we are in.

    Win and we are back to the top and with a solid foundation to start a really tough home stretch.

    I will.still believe in the boys but I really need to see some more fight in them!

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
