First set shot at goal I’ve ever seen Amartey kick through the goals.

    Looks like Cripps has some big padding around the ribs on one side - is that normal for him?

    That’s where he stores the brown paper bags.

    I can’t wait to lose to this [censored] mob next week. Nothing better than going from one bunch of meth head inbred fans to the next. 

    Who is this post for? Is it venting? Do you think we care? Do you want to be proven right? Is it a way to hedge against the worst possible result. Would honestly love to know.

    Straight sets coming up again for us.

    Because we're bad or because the oppo are good?

    We are in big trouble. Straight sets again. I don’t think I could feel any more depressed right now.

    Both. Doesn’t matter how fired up we come out next week. We’re unable to kick a winning score.

    Please everyone cool it with the straight sets nonsense. It may happen but there's no point whinging about it based on two sides playing a game that doesn't involve us. You're just doing your own heads in.

    They were talking on the radio today about a Collingwood/ Carlton grand final. Ugh

    Carlton hasn't been that good. The intensity is way lower than our game last night. Those talking definate straight sets need to chill out.

    It’s just me commentating on the quality of opposition fans we are going to have to endure two weeks running. 
    Fun times.

    A lot of blues ‘fans’ must have needed directions to the G after not turning up for the last 15 years

    Umm, the Blues do play home games at the MCG 😊

    We’ve not cracked over 87 points in the last 3 weeks and that was with Melksham. And Roo. And neither are playing next week. 
    God help us if there is so much as one drop of rain or a slight breeze next Friday. You think Pies defended well, wait until we try to get 80 inside 50s against Carlton for 2 behinds.

    I think we are going to play the most contested, combative, ugly brand of footy next week.

    We will be angry. I like us when we are angry.

    Roo is tiring anyway and IMO is barely best 22. Melksham is a big out but is only good for 1-2 goals per game. 

    I don't care who you put in our forward line anyway. Forwards kick the goals but they don't create them.

    • 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?
