Tigers dominating the centre clearances.

And smashing them in contested possessions also. 

 

The Tiges need to play body-to-body more, and to nominate an backline interceptor like Lever. McKay and Curnow are being given a run and jump at too many balls. 

Blues getting murdered at ground level. Taranto, Green and Dusty tearing them to pieces.

Not to make the non-MFC thread about us, but the speed teams are playing at this season is worrying.

I don't think we've got the capacity to adapt to this with our list and gameplan. Might be a long one this year.

Curnow is just so enjoyable to watch. Will be an all time great. A true KPF.

Blues as good as they are offensively as they never win a flag without another KPD.

Haven't capitalized on it though.

Thought the Tiges held em off very well considering the time in possession & number of entries i50

Poor conversion by the Blues. I hope they rue their poor goal kicking at the end of the game.

He actually could be so much better. He's got very little craft or tact - he's all athleticism, footy IQ and skill. Obviously still enough to be just about the best forward in the comp but if you watch closely there's a lot he doesn't quite do that well 

Close game but not the best quality.


Blues run forward of the ball way too much, Tigers get them on the counter when being a tad more defensive would help the Baggers (Not Goody level defensive).

Tigers hanging in when they shouldn’t be, Carlton too busy thinking they are world beaters.

More scuttlebutt about Petty going to the croweaters next year.

We can't even get him on the park.

Is it open season on Dees players?

At that size, to move the way he does, is just freakish. His marks stick and has great kicking technique. Takes the very best to take him out of the game. 

The half time reporter from Adelaide just said that Harrison Petty is almost certain to be wearing Crows jumper next season.

  • 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?

    The Demons pulled off an absolute miracle at the Gabba coming from 24 points down in the 2nd Quarter to overrun the reigning premiers the Brisbane Lions winning by 11 points and keeping their season well and truly alive.
