At least he will be able to have an intelligent conversation at Melbourne. Although Darcy Moore would have been alright to speak to

    But Fly and Wrighty, Fly and Wrighty couldn't guarantee
    That by Tuesday evening you would still a Magpie be

    What a force across the AFL for the next few years.  Gawn and Grundie, "The Gee Force" or "the Gee Dees" heading the 'awesome foursome', Oliver, Petracca, Brayshaw, Viney. 

    The excitement is arising, 2021 reawakening

    Brodie is going to bring a different dynamic to the group. Jackson appeared to me like he was in no way a leader. Brodie will add weight to the leadership around the place and be automatically respected. Good fr the club.

    I'm so intrigued how this is going to work structure wise.

    Say both play 80% game time, obviously one would be in the ruck and the other spending time up forward.  Thats fine.

    I'm just thinking of how teams this year cut us up by going through the centre of the ground instead of down the line where we'd own the skies.  Does one of the Grawndy then setup behind the play as an intercept marker down the line with maybe May/Lever to go more in the centre as another interceptor?

    Grundy I remember is a great clearance player with good skills and grunt.  I can't remember many big, contested marks like what Maxy does.  

    So I'm thinking Grundy will be our main ruck with Gawn basically plugging a role down back when things are tight or having the ball bombed on that magnificent scone of his.

    Speaking of, I’ve just been on my Demon Army WhatsApp chat and I’m blushing like a mofo. First time ever it’s  been so racy. I’d even go so far as to say hot n steamy. Even the blokes are joining in. This is one of many, many examples of what’s causing such hormonal raucousness …

    Ok that’s one example. Here’s another…

    But this is the one causing all sorts…

    Personally, I’m a little meh. But if anyone’s got a few buckets of water or better still a fleet of firefighting hoses, they’re needed over on WhatsApp. STAT!

    Edit: update… phew. idk what happened there but things have returned to normal and now we’re back to talking about all things crepe paper and sticky tape.

    Five minutes of craziness has ended and DA folks back to their staid middle-aged selves. Thank god.

    Welcome to the MFC Mr Grundy. Once you have been cleansed of the filth I hope you and Max can provide a positive ruck combination that oppositions struggle against.

    Is Gawn and Grundy the best ruck duo ever?  The only other I can think of is Polly Farmer and Sam Newman.

    Strawberry odwyer and Stynes!

    Thought his statement was very lovely and spoke of a player deeply hurt by what went on at Collingwood. 

    No different to Treloar, he will have a point to prove and might finally help us beat Collingwood.

    Telling for what he doesn't say: no thank you to the club, coaches or staff.

    Good on him for being genuine.

    At least Brodie didn't tell everyone he'd been talking to Melb since mid year. As genuine a final message as they come.

    Grundy in the middle, gawn floating around back, petty up forward?

    And then for the kick ins - Gawn on the left flank. Grundy on the right. Players ready to smash it straight through the corridor after. Perfection.

    For some reason thinking of Gawn and Grundy reminded me of this deadly duo. Random I know

    • 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?
