Expect more from the Kolt if rocking a perm like that.

    I watched Oliver very closely that quarter. He is plonking it up big time. Multiple occasions where he can go for the smother and he doesn't bother. Once he's out of the contest he stops. Also, maybe I am reading into it too much but I always noticed players slapping hands/backs when they run past each other. I saw three occasions where Oliver ran past a team mate during a dead ball and there was no interaction. It almost seemed like once the other player realised it was Oliver, they hesistated to acknowledge him. Twice was Langdon. The other time was Viney.

    Throwing his body at the ball for that intercept/mark. It wasn’t much but it was effort and attack.

    our ball disposal is still pretty poor, we are getting away with it because we are playing north. hopefully we will continue to get away with it and get the 4 points.

    Forget scoreboard ...should almost be level ...nearer 0.0 v 0.0

    Just a scrappy crappy game..... bizarre

    HTB erased from rulebook. Seriously was changed just for the Scott whinge.

    Absolutely this

    The AFL are the biggest bunch of BShiiiteers going

    They imposed the rule for roughly the first two games in the round after the Scott whinge and conference call to Tax Payer Park and then reverted back to the same old crappola

    Not just you. North is way off it. Spirited but way off it. Brisbane is going to spank us. Scared for that game.

    Needs time at Casey. Goodwin has to make the call. We are playing more than a man short because he is a liability.

    Love it.

    I reckon it was "make it look like I passed out in my undies at a 21st and my drunken mates have got stuck into me with a couple of Nikko pens"

    Talk about stats being misleading - we’re down in just about every category including disposals, disposal efficiency, contested possession, uncontested possessions, clearances, marks …

    Surely the scoreboard attendant is asleep at the wheel.

    I wonder if Davies was the nice dad and Uniacke the [censored] or the other way round.

    • Haha 2

    Our disposal efficiency and shot on goal accuracy is putrid. Need to show some improvement in the last.


    Fgs Oliver how about just once you look before you just bang it onto your boot. Maybe find a teammate for once

    • PREVIEW: Sydney

      The two teams competing at the MCG on Sunday afternoon have each traversed a long and arduous path since their previous encounter on a sweltering March evening in Sydney a season and a half ago. Both experienced periods of success at various times last year. The Demons ran out of steam in midseason while the Swans went on to narrowly miss the ultimate prize in the sport. Now, they find themselves outside of finals contention as the season approaches the halfway mark. The winner this week will remain in contact with the leading pack, while the loser may well find itself on a precipice, staring into the abyss. The current season has presented numerous challenges for most clubs, particularly those positioned in the middle tier. The Essendon experience in suffering a significant 91-point loss to the Bulldogs, just one week after defeating the Swans, may not be typical, but it illustrates the unpredictability of outcomes under the league’s present set up.

    • 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.
