Judging from the comments I have read today it appears that Turner should get a go in front of Tommo

    I doubt we will see Tomlinson in the firsts again. Or TMac

    the up and coming on ball brigade are struggling but our obsession with boundary line play makes it tough when it comes to forward delivery.

    Should have won but it wouldn't mean much

    One thing I would agree with the commentary on today.

    Tommy looks like he's running in treacle.

    It was a bad day for most. No need to stick the boots in, and write anyone off. We will need 3-4 of those guys to gain confidence and play a roll if we are going to go deep in 2023.

    So you think it was a good game then, and there was no negatives or do only look at the good points?

    We really missed those hard bodied and experienced VFL players, Munro, Buntine, and Baldi.

    Wow, BBB not taking his opportunity from straight out infront, though not the only one.

    We have a few AFL listed players who will have to lift/develop their game, if they want to be AFL standard. Jefferson, Adams, AMW, D.Smith, Farris-White. 

    Some terrible field kicking and missed opportunities killed us.

    Nearly stole it.

    Why were Buntine & Baldi left out?

    The Araldite (White + Munro) back will make a big diff next week.

    He was somewhere between solid & good - nowhere near outstanding.

    I thought D.Turner turned the game and momentum, by those intercepts in the third. Played a good game in a dysfunctional backline. They couldn't zone well as they let the opponents get to the ball first and very few attacking moves that came off, (couldn't find a corridor).

    Tomlinson needs some confidence, his leadership and structural set up down back appeared to suffer, as well as his poor decision making, slipping over and switching off. He usually dominates and supports D.Turner very well at this level.

    I always look at the bright side. It’s one of the reasons everybody loves me (the other 2 reasons are that I’m drop dead gorgeous, and that I’m very humble).

    Should we recruit Bell as a back up ruckman ?

    Played a good 1st half, and I thought the same thing, but left in the second. Consistency is needed, especially at the level he is playing.

    Give it a [censored] rest, will you. If there’s more than one way to say something, without exception you’ll choose the most belligerent, abrasive way of saying it. It’s unpleasant and unnecessary.

    So I gather, seeing you did not answer the question you're not sure either? also I tell it the way I see it if you don't like that block me it's simple not going to bother me.

    I love you for that first reason, which is good since I think you’re full of [censored] re the other reasons. 😁

    Yeah true. But in my defence it’s very hard to be humble when you look this good.

    Agree, and it also showed why we can't play both in the same team at senior level.

    • 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?
