Collingwood looking like the better team at the moment. Surely Geelong can take advantage in the forward line without Darcy there

    I never understand why some commentators refer to certain players by both names (Christian/surname), as if they have a hyphenated name. e.g. Isaac Smith ... there is only one Smith on the ground. Bobby Hill's another. Taylor Adams. And Hoskin Elliott ... oops, that is a hyphenated surname!! 

    It's usually players with surname-like Christian names, especially the Bulldogs' Baileys (x3) - Smith/Williams/Dale. A few others ... Touk Miller, Conor Nash, Zac Bailey (what is it about Bailey?), Dyson Heppell.

    I think I have too much time on my hands.

    And of course there is our ANB referred in the 2021 as Bullen

    Dangerfield threw himself back.. or got shot by that sniper again.. 

    He obviously needs to take that straight to the Board.

    Well done to Collingwood. This is more like the effort they brought for the past 22 rounds.

    You hate to see it.

    Could care less who wins this game.

    Seen enough. Even if pies win, they are looking all over the shop defensively.

    What I want to see is huge contest after huge contest.

    Lot's of big hits from the cat's dad's army.

    Let's see how they go next Friday night against the lions, who will be looking to smash them in the contest.

    And what was that from BT -  they're like mushroom, they're coming alive!!!

    The week three people die from toxic mushrooms!

    Geelong to miss finals, but at this rate there is no chance.

    They are finding their groove at the right time of the season.

    Maybe not.

    Go Pies.

    Ffs BT. “They’re like mushrooms.”

    Love ❤️ - that’s what we call a failed simile

    220 pressure index for q2 by Pies. That is literally off the charts.

    Hard to seem them sustain that throughout the game.

    My guess is they got given a serve by Fly after yet another poor quarter and they relied. 
    They’re lucky they are playing a side that’s as cooked as yesterday’s dinner. They should absolutely run Geelong off the field in the second half.

    • 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?
