Not sure about everyone else but kicking a point isn’t advantage?

They should never call advantage so close to goal. Just let the team take a set shot.

Kayo having a mare. Just work dammit!

Is it crashing for you as well? I thought it was my nbn down at Phillip Island.

It's been flawless here for me. Maybe try restarting whatever device it is you're watching on?

Done that 10 times already. 

 

Bummers will continue to run and gun. We need to get our hands on it a lot more.

Would be good if the midfield could play the whole 4 quarters without lapses in concentration.

Kayo working flawlessly for us


I've never seen Clarrie start a game with 2 touches in the first.

Fine start for Essendon they should be really proud of that effort. Draper scorching us in the ruck and if Petty is really hurt then they could really exploit that weakness down back.

Great kick from Melksham to steal one back before QT but these guys need a rocket up their behind.

We need to keep backing our ball movement because once we break the centre line the Bombers are very susceptible. Get stuck in and win more contested footy to shield the backs and we can easily get back in this.

If you take the advantage it is, miss the goal stiff 

We didn't take advantage, the foul was called after Grundy had disposed of the ball. Hard for Kozzy to know if he should kick or not.

Him and Trac need to really lift. Not good enough.

Damn. Hope it improves for the rest of the game for you.

I'm 5 km from the Adelaide Oval and there's no wind at all, so I don't know where you are. It's not raining. In fact, perfect conditions for footy. BB will play. There won't be any changes for weather.

Might have changed your mind ..windy ..a bit of rain & no BB 🤔

Shocking defence efforts but very efficient forward line entries -  almost the opposite of last season -  our backs need to get head in the contest and mids work harder defensively 


Mids need to get involved more just letting the bombers have to many unpressured entries fwd  

Let’s hope the coaches have sorted some of that [censored] out.

Petty and Tomlinson stinking it up 

One of the results of playing Petty up forward for most of the year?

They are playing with a really high defense. Just have Rivers and Sparrow kick to space behind their last line of defence, get Kozzy, JVR and Milkshake work on ground.

 

1st 

fumbles very costly 

Bombers spare defensive across half back is very good (Scott 1 Goodwin 0)

Draper causing problems 

Oliver 2 touches 🤮🤮

Parish 13 disposals 🤔🤔

Pickett nearly dangerous 🤩

Fritsch 💙❤️

Good news is that they can’t play much better and we have much we can improve on. Not losing to those cheats in Adelaide.

  • 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?
