    His numbers have been good but he has looked absolutely buggered during games recently.

    Back to Sparrow, Harmes, Viney all being in the same midfield group. The stuff of horrors.

    Surely Harmes is there to tag Neale into the ground again

    I feel so sad for him. He was dropped and made sub around the same time last year and ended up as sub in the grand final. I feel like he’s more than earnt his spot this season and I hope it’s just a temporary rest and he’s back in the side for finals.

    Clause 1A in Gus' contract looking shaky 

    Might be playing forward pocket at this rate

    Surprising! Maybe a late change?

    If not, should consider himself unlucky with Charlie Spargo getting a gig in front of him...

    Not stiff. He’s been fading out of games for a month.

    Really think he just needs a rest to freshen up. While he isnt the most damaging player, he sure has been good as that link up player on the wing this year.

    Sparrow is lucky imo.

    Dip in form of Jordon was no doubt caused by that knock to his medial ligament that happened a couple weeks ago. Been strapped since.

    No Weideman in emergencies is telling. Shows how far back he is.

    Jordan unlucky, I know he was carrying a niggle but it’ll be hard to get back into the team now.

    I wonder if Gus will go back to the wing or we try Sparrow or Spargo goes there full time.

    It's a case of horses for courses. If Harmes can mininise Neale's influence the change will be justified, however unlucky Jordon is entitled to feel. Bit worried about Spargo, though. His impact in recent games has been minimal.

    That would be Melbourne Football Club premiership players Mr. James Harmes, Mr. Jack Viney and Mr. Tom Sparrow.

    Been a liability since the knee injury. Will be better for it. Most oppositions attack this side of the ground to expose his questionable fitness.

    With the injury to Tmac this side is about as good as it gets. We should be able to get a win in QLD.

    I don’t understand why they played Harmes in the slog last Sunday if they intended him to play tomorrow. Did he get rested in the last quarter? Surely JJ won’t miss out again after playing all year - perhaps being freshened up.

    • 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?

      The Demons pulled off an absolute miracle at the Gabba coming from 24 points down in the 2nd Quarter to overrun the reigning premiers the Brisbane Lions winning by 11 points and keeping their season well and truly alive.
