Freo finishing 4th or 5th last we be a dream but It ain’t happening. They are better than this and will still finish somewhere in 9-12. Still gives us a top 10.

    Suns are already above them, I'm getting greedy now and want Carlton to leap frog Freo in the coming weeks.

    Understand I was confused because I loathe Carlton.

    I don’t know if it’s already been asked, but how the flip did we lose to this basket case!?

    ...just need Sydney & Carlton to run into a bit of form now.

    Then the way Hawthorn have been going is a bottom 3 position for Freo too much to ask for?

    That’s what we can only hope for.

    they don’t have an easy draw: Collingwood, Doggies and Cats all away. You can almost put down 3 losses there. 

    Lions, Bombers and Power at home - would be hard to win more than one of those.

    Blues, Swans, Eagles and Hawks round out the rest , which they’ll probably 3-4. 

    So can’t see them winning more than 4-5 games for the rest of the season for 10-11 wins, which is about 9-12 ladder wise.

    The bye certainly came at the wrong time for the boys from Cockburn.

    GWS would have to be a chance this week but seem unable to string 2 wins together.

    It's always the wrong time for cockburn, bye or no bye.

    It’s premature -  I know.

    So if teams finished as-is. We’d have pick 6, 18, 24, 36 and 90.

    I’d take 18 and 24 to  Cats  (as Suns unlikely to trade ) for Pick 9.

    Take 6,9 to WC for Reid. If they take it, good otherwise we use it on Curtain and Duursma.

    These umps either have money on the saints or Freo to make the 8 cos this is putrid. 
     

    But tigers doing enough to shunt Freo down further!

    Why are the cats giving us a top 10 pick? Slide down 9 places for a pick in the 20s is not a deal I would do if I was them.

    • 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?
