Viney is being well shackled. Badly need Oliver back in this team to drive the team forward

    Thank goodness they can't kick straight 

    They would be ahead if they kicked straight.

    Momentum swings so much. Need to be more consistent.

     

    I tell you what watching live is far less stressful than TV.
     

    We look far more superior in structure but have been a bit clumsy with disposal and i50 entry. Nothing that cannot be tidied up.

    Lucky to be in front at halftime. BBB's AFL career must be very close to the end on that showing.

    Both Brown and TMac are at the end. Both contracted for next year. Expect both to finish up then or retire early. Their bodies are shot sadly. Both great servants of the club and will be fondly remembered premiership players once they hang up the boots.

    At the game, and the lack of (defensive) pressure in the forward 50 is staggering! Ugly signs, and we’re going to get run over if we don’t improve our contest and pressure, Jack Viney excused, and assuming Crows have the legs. Can’t exit defensive with any conviction, can’t keep it in our own. Awful football, except for that bright 10 minutes.

    I hate jumping on the bandwagon when it comes to our KPF’s, but BBB is not providing a contest.

    I don't know why they persist with BBB

    He's been lacklustre. No doubt about it. I think Petty is a better option. But it won't happen. 

    I think Bbb gets another half a quarter before Smith is subbed .

    Good to see Chandler back in the goal scoring.

    We need to biry this side in the third. Are we seriously competing for a cup this year. No more just scraping in fgs.

    I think Max is tired from last week. Nice goal in the first but only three touches since. Lever not doing much. Anb needs to lift again.

    Milk is continuing his good form thank goodness 

    This game is poised at even money right now

    Yep, coming out way too quickly/easily.

    Whats so hard to have our talls bring it to ground with our smalls locking it up?

    Keep M Crouch and rankine quiet in the second half and we win comfortably

    All about starving supply, but they’re attacking much more than us, just have wasted shots.

    Has definitely been the case today: reckon he’s been better in the previous few weeks

    M crouch hadnt been able to get an AFL game, we should be able to quell his influence but I agree keeping rankine quiet is a challenge

    Maybe it is time for Petty to play forward and make Tommo a permanent fixture down back. I thought BBB was turning the corner a bit last week but he's off the boil today.

    Adelaide desperately need the 4 points to stay in the finals race. They're not going to go down easily

    Hopefully Goody straightens us back up at the break.

    Gawn has only 4 disposals to. Our midfield haps to do better to.

    Trac very off today

    Grundy>BB

    Yep, I think we have to have a tall beside JVR to give him that help. If not BB it probably has to be Grundy

    Minding their pacy forward is proving to be testing and the hit up mark on the wing hasn’t been there. Need the forwards to rotate up to be that option. Brown, trac, melk and JVR.  Adelaide doing lots of block/grapple work to keep them quiet. Umps will chirp in if our forward go the ball in air (as they have a couple times already)

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      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?
