We finished 4th last year with 16 wins & 4 losses. Regardless if the Pies win, it’s still difficult for either of these teams to make top 4. Swans finished 8th with 12.5 wins and 10 losses.

Going early with that statement...

    They can't move the ball without Coleman. 

    The AFL can't allow teams to have breaks within 2 weeks of the season starting, its disjointing for the competition.

    You either play everyone opening round or scrap it all together.

    Completely agree about Coleman. He kept them in the granny last year and Brissy’s whole set up revolves around him. He’s a superstar that doesn’t get the credit he deserves. 
     

    And yeah the ‘opening’ round has played out poorly. Further compromises the season.

    Umm so is Daniher. Not too sure what Hipwood brings as a KPF, but he plays smaller than Spargo.

    Always seems to play his best games against us though

    Absolutely. I just didn’t want to name both in case the angry ghost of Norm Smith reads my outrageous comments. He sees these posts & makes these blokes play well against us 😁

    With the list that Lions have, Fagan looks to only have a plan A. Not sure he will get the ultimate success. 
    Hipwood reminds me of Schache

    Nup much worse

    Thanks Brisbane for ruining the best running joke of the season. Twitter/X was fun while the Pies were winless.

    The pies looked linke they go the rub of the green with the frees, but at least they put some effort in.  Lions were slow, stationary and putrid.

    Channel 7 asking Pendlebury in the post match interview about a ‘love tap’ on Neale is everything wrong with the AFL.

    Stop creating the narrative. They did it last year and it’s fundamentally wrong.

    It makes me hate the game.

    Fagan senile.. like half of his players, inept!! has Hipwood had a touch??? My 3 year old grandson goes harder than him!

    Picket, I find it helpful to understand your posts if I read them using the voice of Donald Trump. All of a sudden it explains a lot!

    Pies are a chance for finals if lucky

    Tough night to be a Lions fan.  Frustrating to watch the team play so bad, but oh my, the umpiring was next level atrocious.  Would ruin the long weekend.

    How is that Maynard tackle different from a sling tackle?

    It was Maynard, so it was deemed a “football action” 😬

    I find, when Selwood speaks, it has a laxative effect. 

    Oh that's interesting. I seem to have problems at the other end.

    It’s been a very strange night. BT calling posters as goals. Also saying this absolute trash game feels like a ‘finals game’? WTF?

     

    Umpiring was AWFUL. 
     

    The standard of the game was terrible by both teams. 
     

    Brisbane just played worse than Collingwood. 
     

    Joey Montagna saying Pendles punch was just a fine??

     

    Interviewing and asking a player about an incident they should be suspended for straight after a game?

     

    Referring to the incident as a ‘love tap?’

     

    The reality of what we just witnessed vs the way it’s characterised by commentators is worlds apart. 
     

    Painfully obvious tonight.

    • 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?
