    Understatement of the year 😅


    Gawns post match comments 1000% confirms Oliver won’t be dropped. 
    Selfless game apparently lol. 

    In form team of the comp versus out form team of the comp. 

    Cross everything you got.

    Fascinated to see the impact of having lever back.. not a coincidence that our form dropped away when he left the team. Critical for structure and leadership

    Underrated observation. 
    Lever makes us much better. His leadership has been sorely missed. He’s a totally different leader to Gawn and Viney.

    Can wait to see the mighty f#cking dees rail the Lions on their home deck. 

    In: Lever

    I'm a two hour drive from Brisbane and my heart says go but my logic says no.

    I purchased the tickets and the flights after the Geelong win. Things were looking fine back then. Think I’ll put the 8yo on the iPad w/ headphones at 1/4 time 🤷‍♂️😀👌

    Max must have missed Oliver trying to give away a 50 with 5 minutes to go.

    In all seriousness, they're just trying to keep him well and nurse him through. Unclear whether that is okay or not.

    Make a holiday of it and head down to the beach and safe yourself the mental anguish. 

    Even if we play our best performance of the year, we are miles off the current Lions form.

    Look at our list v theirs. We simply have way too many inexperienced players and a forwardline that is simply no match for their backline.

    So you would prefer that our captain, whilst still on the field, criticises his teammate, who we all know is trying hard to clean his life up and come back from a poor pre-season, because he couldn’t shake a tag?

    Yet every chance you get you complain about our club’s culture being broken?

    [censored] me.

    Lever would be a welcome inclusion. 
    What is going on with #31?   Preseason some were talking him up as a Coleman prospect.
    A good performance tomorrow by any Casey medium / tall forward would be welcome.

    The logic may be there but the same post would have been made about Hawthorn a month ago, the week prior to them beating Brisbane.

     

    Going along with kids and Grand Kids but fearing the worst. We just are not playing well and our kids, whilst going Ok are just not improving enough. Plus, our middle players are also not doing enough and the less I say about Mr Fritta the best.

    Could be an ugly showing at the Gabba.

    As I mentioned in the non MFC thread today, how is it that Brisbane keep drafting and successfully blooding goal kicking forwards, and now have 2 more in Lohmann and Morris that are now established in their best 22.

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
