Kanga Kanga Kanga the difference in the end.

Chandler was massive and Judd just knows what to do. Hooray for youth!

We have some issues but I'll take any win in Round 6.

Please just retire Riewoldt. Always kills us.

    Van Rooyen is going to be a genuine star for us, how many young forwards have a quiet one for three quarters and turn it around in a matter of a quarter. 

    Gotta be mark of the year contender.

    Tonight showed us how close the comp is right now. True grit from 25 down.

    If there’s one moment to stand out from tonight, it was Hunter winning a clutch ball on the Members’ wing just before 3/4 time to set up the Oliver goal on the siren. The roar after Oliver’s goal was the loudest I’ve heard here since the Wattsy 2017 QB goal.

    I cannot believe we won that game. Apart from an increasingly good last quarter, our game play, skills, and decision making were as poor as they have been in 3 years. 

    Take a bow Jack Viney - epic game in every way.

    And welcome to the big time JVR.

    Brown's gotta come in to protect JVR and/or Petty

    Not sure only 2 key defenders is sustainable

    Great game by Viney

    Very odd coaching to have Gawn ruck to majority of the game when we needed a seasoned body up forward

    Win's a win. The first three quarters were far from enjoyable but I like how we responded in the last.

    Van Rooyen was incredible late. Looks a gun. Chandler's fast becoming one of my favourite players. He's tough, quick and super composed. Love him.

    Couldn't have been anyone other than Viney. Tough as nails and a constant presence even when we were getting beat.

    We take the win obviously, but there are some things we need to look closer at. Our backline was poor, still too much millionaire football, and our forward structure is a mess. 

    Having said that, positives: wrestling the game back, JVR and what a crowd!!

    Learn from this and take the W onwards

    Go Dees 🔵🔴

    Still worried about how we handle ground balls in our back half.. we just cannot stop the opposition.

    Gutsy win in the end but a few things to work on as well.

    JVR is heading to cult status.

    If JVR doesn’t get you excited, nothing will. 
     

    Plenty to work on still but gee it’s good to wrestle back momentum and grind a win out. 
     

    Judd ‘knuckles’ McVee is some find too, love his composure

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
