IMO No mono.

 

Has anyone been dragged at ¾ time to suggest they may be emergency tomorrow, or are there three missing out on a run just in case?

Tomlinson would have no opponent tomorrow, we need to go smaller and quicker down back or the Pies random forwardline will destroy us. 

Woey comes in for a full game, he's been a sub for too long, so if he wasn't going to start, he needed to be dropped to get some match fitness in.

Yes it's called using your Peripheral vision everyone's got it you have to know what's around you.

I'm confused as to why Ben Brown is rucking when we have verrall and fullarton playing

Yea. Sounds strange.  Battering a frail old man around in the ruck when there are two able bodied youngsters is just weird.

It seems Verrall has his calf strapped and Fullarton is being given more time in the ruck. BBB sharing the load.

McAdam showing he would have benefited from a few more weeks at Casey.

Good game from him today without ripping it open

Needs a 3-4 week block at Casey in my view to build some confidence in his body

Lol, Adams first touch late in the 4th is a turnover leading to a Collingwood goal. 

No need to have a crack at him mate. I've seen May miss a bucket load of short kicks.

  • 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?
