POSTGAME: Rd 15 vs Geelong

Recommended Posts

The Demons made their forced annual trek down the Princes Freeway to the Cattery and were well placed for victory going into the last quarter only to blow the lead eventually going down by 15 points and losing touch with the Top 2.

Disgraceful performance after a week off. Geelong even lost their best player a few minutes into the game. Fritsch will be suspended for next week too.

Petracca nailing his hardest shot for the night once the game was killed sums him up.

Lol

I have no idea why I come on here during losses… some of the negativity is so over the top. Incredible.

Putrid 1Q and 4Q though. But the 4Q is all about us pressing too high and fumbling/losing contests when we’re all goal side. To say the cats blew us away is to suggest it’s because they were so dynamic, it was all our positioning and skill in dangerous areas.

Agree on ANB. Just grab the ball man.. so frustrating.

Shocker from Gawn

The most disappointing thing for me was the start of the last quarter. Everyone knew their season was on the line at 3/4 time and for us to come out flat footed and allow them to monster us and get the first two goals was very poor. That got their crowd going and the rest is history, once momentum starts it’s hard to stop.

No words for how badly we performed tonight. 
Cats without Dangerfield and Guthrie and lose Cameron in the first few minutes, and we just go on to play some of the dumbest, softest football we’ve dished up all year. 

We absolutely should not have dropped Tomlinson for Petty who was totally underdone. We needed someone to drag Stewart away from the contest, but instead we went too small and nobody was able to stop him intercepting. 

Spargo was a terrible choice of sub, not to mention that subbing him off for Jordon was just idiotic. 

Infuriating garbage.

Really disappointing to come off a 10 day break and get run over by a middle of the ladder team coming off a 6 day break. Came out completely limp in q4. 

Towelled by Rohan - embarrassing

We cant just pick and choose when we are going to turn up to games. Such a frustrating club to follow. 

And finally, goals win matches. 

Blah

    CONSISTENCY by The Oracle

    "I think we have got a team that can win a premiership, and if we get in this year, I don't think there is a team that is going to want to play us. This year is not a write-off, I don't concede that. Not at all." — Collingwood President Jeff Browne. I love this sort of optimism from the Magpie President after his club’s eleven goal defeat at the hands of the fast rising Hawks. It’s consistent with the fighting spirit of the club that won last year’s flag.  I only wish I could say the s

    FEARS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne’s worst fears about the absence of Max Gawn were realised when it received a shellacking from Fremantle’s ruckmen Sean Darcy and Luke Jackson who dominated the hit out tally in their game at Optus Stadium on Sunday by a massive 47 to 19. As a result, the 50-point deficit at the end of the game proved to be a loss that was long foreseen that was two years in the making and demonstrated a complete lack of hindsight and planning from the club. To add insult to injury, Jackson was a D

    PREGAME: Rd 20 vs GWS

    The Demons return to the MCG in Round 20 to take on the GWS Giants and will be hoping the injured Captain Max Gawn is fit to return to his role in the ruck as their season is slipping away. Who comes in and who comes out?

    POSTGAME: Rd 19 vs Fremantle

    RAIN CHECK by Whispering Jack

    The Frankston Dolphins broke a run of six straight losses against their neighbours, the Casey Demons and kept their hopes for a long-awaited return to the VFL finals alive with a 27 point victory over at Kinetic Stadium. Casey was welcomed to the Peninsula by grey skies, heavy rain and angry seas with threatening white-capped waves whipped up by gale force winds. After a slow start in the opening term when they failed to take advantage of the breeze, it appeared that the Demons had decided

    GAMEDAY: Rd 19 vs Fremantle

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a golden opportunity to stamp their 2024 finals credentials as well as make amends for their disastrous first meeting against the Dockers earlier in the season when they take on Fremantle at Optus Stadium.
