  • The dees have caused us problems since 2021 and we need to arrest their dominance over us.
  • There's one thing we have going for us - it was reported last year that the side had discussed the Melbourne problem at some length since the most recent loss (Rd 1 2023) and are determined not to be Melbourne's b@#$%^& any more.
  • Our team is vastly improved on paper where Melbourne has arguably gone backwards. They still have the best backline in the league in my opinion but we absolutely should be able to get them this year.
  • Dogs by 21. JUH to kick a bag.
  • We need Lobb to play May defensively. If we can do this we are big chance to win.
  • I can't see how this Melbourne forward line could kick a winning score.
  • Fritsch worries me the most. Lock away him and Pickett and we win.
  • Their forward line looked abysmal so they might try McDonald this week.
  • I’d be surprised if Schache survives that game, he was no good. Dees had no aerial impact up forward. McDonald and Fullerton were both emergencies and I imagine one or both come in with Schache out.
  • Their marking forwards don't bother me at all. Their ground ball game does concern me.
  • A lot of grubby ground balls coming in from Sydney, May and Lever didn’t have much influence.
  • They'll drop Schache for McDonald or Sideshow Bob ... or both. And floppy Bob usually bumbles his way to a few flukey goals
  • Would love to see one of our boys clean up that campaigner Pickett for once.
  • Picket? phtttt. This is the game that fritsch circles on his calendar. Someone needs to make fritch their b*&^%$.
  • I’d bank on Harmes tagging Petracca. He always cuts us up.
  • Fritsch kicked six on us in a grand final, with Brown McDonald and Jackson kicking a collective 6 as well. Last year Brown kicked 4 on us and so did Pickett though we were a shambles, worse than 2022 where Brown kicked 3.
  • Well last year I had to watch Alex Keath try and run down Pickett right in front of my seats in the cheer squad so there’s already one scenario that isn’t happening this year.
  • Rather Demons have won the other night, they will be super hungry to prove a point.

    There's been a significant rivalry pop up bw us and the dogs lately.

    May it continue with us beating them by 27 points.

    Our mids to dominate with Jv best on ground and Kozzie to have a picnic.

    Maybe I'm as deluded as some of these comments?

    Ps don't answer.

    Agree with him but we somehow landed 100 points on Carlton the other week (albeit a practice match)

    Typical week on Demonland after a loss eh...

    How lucky are they AFL as a junket organisation, that the majority fans are so emotionally attached to meaning of one single game and the fortunes of the club, that they spend thousand of dollars of membership each year and 10's of millions on punting annually.

    They've curated it well.

    It was pretty convivial aboard my Watergardens train post game. They know we own them. We know we own them. What's to argue about?

    As long as Beverage is coach we will own them. We are so far in his head since 21 that it reminds me of when Malthouse coached Carlton and all he wanted to do was beat Collingwood.

    We broke the Dogs. Haven’t been the same since that grand final humiliation in 2021. 
    Bevo lost the absolute plot too after that one.

    We certainly broke "Premiership Hero" Eastonwood, who immediately retired after Fritsch kicked 6 on him

    They did alot of banking on the weekend doggie supporters for f k all in return.

    How they think they have improved has got me well and truely puzzled to use a polite term.

    On there way to centerlink they go for their next cheque.

    • 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?
