Always enjoyable belting west coast. Thoroughly dislikeable mob.

    That score review guy needs to be fired. Looked like a goal to me, at worst it was worth a closer look. I'll be bringing this up in August if percentage becomes a factor! Plainly unprofessional.

    Good solid scrappy win. A 10 goal margin was probably about par. Grundy is a freak of nature.

    Well it wasn't pretty but we got the Easter eggs.

    Vineys back and so is Fritta.

    Grundy still going gangsters.

    Tmac has returned and Kozzie out for 2 weeks could have kicked six.

    McVee and Hiibberd great in our baxkline.

    Using our wings again to create opportunities. 

    Any win against eagle supporters is a goid one.

    Petty back behind the ball, BBB up forward

    For all the whining about the umpires (not entirely unjustified), we won the free kick count 22 to 16.

    Completely justified in fact. No advantage that I could see to either team, there was just simply no consistency. I use the cliché reluctantly, but the adjudicating out there was a raffle. For evidence, just look at the centre bounce ‘call backs’ alone. It’s an embarrassment to the game.

    Good to see tmac find some form and jvr snag a couple. Fritsch oozing pure class as usual. Nice percentage boost and no injuries.

    bring on the bombers

    I love being a good team. Underwhelmed by a 10 goal win in Perth

    Grundy slowly hitting vintage AA form. Imagine Pies fans watching that.

    They carp on about the fact that if they kept Grundy, they couldn't have brought in 4 players during the trade period, being McStay, Hill, Mitchell and God knows who else.

    It's quality, not quantity filth fans.

    Salem should take Bowey’s spot IMO. 

    Salem should earn his way back through the VFL at this point. 2021 was a long time ago now, and he hasn't played too well in over a year (not his fault - but true all the same).

    McVee won’t be back at Casey anytime soon. Love his balance and composure. JJ looked very good when he came on. Chandler is now a fixture. JVR is a beast. A lot to like.

    Petty was probably our one negative from the day. Never looked settled in the forward line, lost some easy one-on-ones and was moved back to defence.

    Think BBB might have to bide his time at Casey until the opportunity presents itself

    Memo to AFL

    If you're going to do goal line reviews get a camera and a replay that inserts the goal line

    that shot on the final score was atrocious

    Maybe we worry about Salem when he’s ready to return …

    That 50m penalty against Hunter was one of the worst I have seen.

    Was Hibberd injured? AFL app says so but I didn’t hear the commentators mention anything during the 4th quarter?

    No. Subbed out in the last for JJ. Not injured. Just managed.

    Love Chandler's efforts, works hard in the forward 50 but runs back just as hard in defence. 

    He doesn't want to give up that spot any time soon by the looks.

    Very true, spent Easter with some Filth fans (the things you do for family peace...).  They were adamant that it was a good call to get rid of Grundy and that they'd be fine even with Cox out.  Said it's better to have players all on the same pay packet rather than someone on more like Grundy.

    Essentially what Collingwood saved getting rid of Grundy only paid for McStay.

    Great professional win.

    McVee, Grundy, Fritta, TMac, Viney, Hunter, Rivers, Sparrow all good.

    Must keep JVR in. 
    Might be a game changer for Trac’s confidence in front of goals.

    Didn't really notice but no doubt Clarrie had plenty.

    • 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?
