Petty, BBB, JVR and Fritta a combined 0 marks between them.

Well Fritsch did have a mark but the Brisbane player illegally chopped his arms.

    It all comes down to the midfield. We are getting smashed in clearances and contested possessions. That’s the game. 
    You can’t blame the forwardline when the midfield is not able to win the ball.

    Embarrassing

    Look very flat, 2 hard games with 5 day breaks … not sure why we never  have tall fwds  when the ball is going fwd 

    BBB should be deep inside the 50 and trying to attract Harris Andrews attention. Instead we keep hoping that JVR can compete with a veteran Backman.

    What's disappointing about that is that he used to clunk everything for Casey.

    He's OK when the ball comes in soft but not when it comes in with pace.


    Tall key forwards Petty BBB JVR - one solitary disposal to half time.

    Add Frittata - 2 disposals between them

    2 kicks in total for the half for Brown, Tholstrup, Fritsch, Windsor, vanRooyen, Pettty combined😱

    Makes you wonder how Brisbane's midfield can be so superior, but they are killing us! Everything else flows from this.

     

    As a team performance this is about as bad as it gets, hardly anyone winning their position can't see us getting out of this

    We look tired;  BBB, Petty Billings nothing

     

    Shot to bits.

    We butchered two attacking thrusts in that last little peroid.

    We had them cold and reduced the deficit by a couple of goals.

    Terrible football.

    No it's his marking technique full stop.

    Well he's two disposals above Bbb. .Fritta and Petty the latter who has had zero touches.

    Petty no touches in a half.....hmmm.

    Joeboy. Great stuff. Name names. Running in circles.  JVR has dropped 15 marks in a row.

    This is simplistic. We are down in all areas aside from goal accuracy compared to last year and we are getting smoked by a team that is going moderate to good in all areas aside from accuracy. Just so happens there slotting them tonight.

    Easy shots given.

    You may be right. I do know that he can't be dishing up what he has been. Take the damn game on. There's a point in time where we may as well give Jefferson an earlier than expected crack.

    I think Norf put up a better fight against them last week. 

    We are kicking a score similar to a Hawthorn or North tbh.

    The inexperience of our youngsters, Windsor, Howes, JVR and McVee, is showing.
    And our experienced forwards, Brown, Petty, Fritter, are out of position when the ball comes in.

    Clarrie is obviously hampered by his hand and is pretty much useless tonight. 


    Agree we’ve been [censored], but I’m ready to jump the fence and deck one of these useless umpires.

    * violence apparently doesn’t solve anything. I might find out later.

    And when we win it we give it back.

    Did anyone else get the feeling we were talking up our wins in Adelaide too much.

    Like we had just one a final.

    Clearly we were very happy with these wins 

    So much so we have given up on this one 

    A very poor performance.

    Very poor 

    From the top down.

    And a shout out to Kozzie...well played sitting on the sidelines.

    Move Petty back & T Mac forward. Worth a try at least.

    Was thinking exactly that.

    Gotta make a move when absolutely nothing is working up forward.

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
