GAMEDAY: Rd 23 vs Brisbane

Recommended Posts

Well this 4th Maker's mark is going down well.  The two mountain goat starters didn't even touch the sides.  A bit like our kicks for goal... straight down the middle.

We're ahead yeh?

26 inside 50 to each team.

We are just brutally efficient tonight. Won’t happen every week but you take it when you can. 
 

We need to put this game to bed this quarter. The Lions will come out firing so we just need to hold strong for 5-10 and not give them any momentum.

Brisbane brought a knife to a gun fight, and I’m talking the blade on a a pair of fingernail clippers to a 155mm Howitzer.

That was almost a faultless first half. Every kind of entry whether long kick or lowering the eyes we executed perfectly every time. Winning contested ball like absolute animals and 16 shots from 26 inside 50s is incredible. 

Brisbane getting hot under the collar, I don't know whether it was to find a spark but it is working against them big time. Matthison is such a bin Dipper of a footballer.

Winning almost every 50-50 right now. I'll be happy if we build the lead in the 3rd then rest guys and take the sting out in the last. 

Come on Dees, let's Bin Diesel these bottlers!

What a sight to see us so effective inside 50. The eyes are wide, we're looking for targets, it's manic, we're relentless, we're CONVERTING!

This is exactly the sort of motivation we need going into the finals. Shots fired, watch out everyone else. 

Lions = pretenders.

Now let's bury em.

TV already making excuses for the Lions tackle on brown. disappointing to see.

Yeah, " momentum of the tackle yadda, yadda , yadda."
Didn't matter when Chandler got 2.

I thought up until Max took took those two late contested marks, that he and perhaps ANB and Spargo were the only ones just going.

The rest have been scintillating. Jackson  May, Kozzie, BBB, Rivers, Langdon, Harmes, Tracc, Gus...

I notice the rubbish default kick to the FP has been turned on its head.

The default is now lowering vision for the hit up pass...or kicking to the hot zone just outside the square.  The surprise marginal option is now kicking out to the flank or pocket then cutting straight back in on the angle.

And look at that...we've scored our rough average score for the season in the first half!

Good to see Harmes playing....a lot of extra muscle with him...Trac...Sparrow and Viney.

May standing tall.

Gus 17 touches. Oliver 14.

I think Rivers has been good 

My $ on kozzie for 7 Sausages.

 

Bbb 5 marks...3 goals.

17 at 35% and many of those awful no look flick or kick out of a pack which almost never works to our advantage…

Absolutely love the bloke.  HATE his flick out possessions.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
