We waste so many chances going forward

    we should not be relying on free kick to win this, we need to rely on our field kicking, our kicking is pretty poor. The team is putting in the hard yards around the ground but then turning it over. we need to stop that switch, quite a few times they switch to langdons wing they get a kick at goal. Where are out players on that side of the ground where is their accountability. We need to strong last quarter to show then who is the better team. we have a few players who are down who need to lift, ANB is certainly one.

     

    Confident?

    Not really. The Pies have their tails up and we looked under serious pressure for pretty much that whole quarter. 

    But I'm holding hope that they spent all their tickets in that quarter, and rode their luck. It has to run out, right?

    WE HAVE TO MAKE THE MOST OF OUR OPPORTUNITIES INSIDE 50!!!!

    Momentum has turned big time. Pies made up their tackle deficit in one quarter. Their pressure is immense and we are crumbling. 


    I'm getting really sick of our players stopping, trying to take on 2 tacklers, then handballing over their heads. Collingwood's pressure is too good for this and we are turning it over to their runners too many times. ANB in particular is driving me nuts.

    Also Max, and BBB should be allowing midfielders to pick it up off the ground. 

    And if I see the Pies get 1 more mark  within 20 metres of goal I will freak out. 

    Having said all that I still reckon we are the better side at this point. 

    Nibbler is garbage. Everytime we try and transition our way through he feels the need to completely stop in his own tracks and take the tackler on. 

    So infuriating

    Pretty sure Nibbler has a bit of calf soreness.  Harmes time

    Yes ANB is seriously [censored]. Fumbles is his new nickname. Of turnover king !!!

    Maxy please stop kicking mate

    Stop kicking to pockets, open the forward line up, Jesus we are predictable.


    We are in trouble here. We won’t win this in a close one. Pies are full of confidence. We are playing what can only be described as brain dead football. 

    If you were a neutral you'd say Collingwood are poised to pinch this. We need to raise our game to change the narrative.

    Can't remember Viney's last touch.

    Double the inside 50s yet only a goal up. 

    Get it in quick and our defence is caught napping, They are always on the move.

    We need to be willing to risk a few things this last quarter. Our system is seemingly choking our instinct atm, we have very little dare.


    Answer the challenge Dees

    Has Quanore been on Kozzie most of the night?  If so he's probably had the better of him so far

    Yes I think we need one set of fresh legs 

    This why I never post that we will smash a side.

    Demons just need to take a few of our opportunities and we will be okay!


    We are slow and stodgy. We need to lift big time otherwise we lose this game

    We never win these games.

     

    .....but would love it to stop tonight.

    We are toast I think, pies evened out the contest which was our advantage, now they getting more supply they over run us

     

    Anb and others are forcing a stoppage by receiving the tackle. Creates lots of stoppages and clearances 

    But not using it well at all

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
