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

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    POSTGAME: Rd 12 vs Fremantle

    The Demons were blown out of the water and were absolutely embarrassing against the Fremantle Dockers in Alice Springs ultimately going down by 92 points and getting bundled out of the Top 8 for the first time since 2020.

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
