Where so far off our best footy it’s not funny just need to hope we get over the line somehow. It really is hard to believe where reigning premiers and second on the ladder at the moment. 

Yup, said in a group chat, we have 5 games coming up and can easily lose them all. We haven’t been great all year, we have had great qtrs etc and got wins, but overall been good, but not great and if we play like we have been, including today, we are making up numbers.

    BB is playing well. It’s not his fault we don’t have a player in the team who can hit him on the goddamn chest when he’s leading at the ball…

    Fritta i would drop you if Tmac wasn't injured burnt another player in the goalsquare.

    He is doing some selfish things of late.

    I think his last two errors (pulling the kick from a set shot and playing on to handball to a teammate under pressure) was him trying to make amends for that early burn.

    Just needs to play smart..

    This is the truth. Talk loading, injuries and other stuff all we want but we qre simply not playing well enough right now.

    Yes BBB was on the move clear of Aliir and Salem kicked it short i50 to Aliir's advantage 🤷

    BBB getting marks in the wing and CHF. Need him inside 50 kicking goals. It’s our lack of Tmcd or a CHF that’s a killer !!

    Weid or JVR would have been a better selection than Bedford.

    It’s a shame cause his skills are sublime.

    He’ll come into the game in the second half…. *casually crosses fingers*

    We are butchering the ball, and I think the harder ground is making then ball bounce with higher variation because of it. So many fumbles from both clubs, from players who usually have clean hands. I don't understand the poor kicking though. So many unpressured kicks missing targets by a long way.

    Our forward pressure is back on which is good, and our forward system is at last showing early signs of organisation, but it would be good to have someone actually taking a contested mark for a shot on goal. 

    Sparrow has such a huge upside, but he is quickly becoming a momentum killer. Some of his decision making is outright poor. 

    I thought Harmes, Trac, Langdon & Kozzie lifted well that quarter.

    100%. Salem missed him by 10 metres

    He’s also playing a heap of time in in the middle of the ground

    edit: by middle I mean wings not on the ball

    Liked Tomlinson today. Playing well.

    Kozzie's been electri

    Sparrow and Rivers working hard.

    BBB doing some good things.

    Dislike Petracca playing like a millionaire.

    Mindless bombs into forwardline.

    Maybe @bing181 can explain? You're big advocate for his selection. 

    I never advocated for his selection, nor for any player for that matter. I tried to understand the reasoning behind his call-up, from those who are paid to make those decisions.

    Don’t know how you play well when you have a certain amount of injuries and are loading. Form isn’t a magical thing. It is often explainable.

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?

    • CASEY: Collingwood

      It was freezing cold at Mission Whitten Stadium where only the brave came out in the rain to watch a game that turned out to be as miserable as the weather.
      The Casey Demons secured their third consecutive victory, earning the four premiership points and credit for defeating a highly regarded Collingwood side, but achieved little else. Apart perhaps from setting the scene for Monday’s big game at the MCG and the Ice Challenge that precedes it.
      Neither team showcased significant skill in the bleak and greasy conditions, at a location that was far from either’s home territory. Even the field umpires forgot where they were and experienced a challenging evening, but no further comment is necessary.
