Just now, whatwhat say what said:

he doesn't provide the defensive pressure

laurie will either make it as a mid at afl level or he'll have a long vfl career a la mitch white

Have to disagree re defensive pressure.

He's had 7 tackles in a half so far and had a good 1minute late in that quarter where he had 5 or 6 repeat efforts scrapping at the lose ball to cause an opposition turnover. His game against the pies he had the most pressure acts of anyone on the ground despite only playing 65% game time.

    Blake Howes has been solid

    Really hard to read what might be AFL-relative footy in this wet slog.

    Jefferson a standout for the way he is presenting and looks a dominant point in the forward line.

    I feel sorry for Laurie - far too good for VFL but can't quite produce it at AFL level (going in and out of the team isn't helping).

    Sestan and McAdam playing like average VFL players.

    I wish Mitch White was 22-23 yo. I would roomie list him in a heart bit.

    Casey defensive and effort is outstanding.

    Composure inside F50 an issue (sounds familiar).

    Playing well but not capitalising.

    Howes looks classy. Hopeful future. McAdam staking a claim. Not Jefferson's conditions but still competitive.  Laurie nearly double figure tackles.

    Howes is dominating this 3rd quarter. Very steady influence. Unlucky to have that beautiful goal cancelled by a free against McAdam. Laurie our next best.

    McAdam has played his role well but we can’t afford that ill-discipline at AFL level. Wouldn’t mind seeing him as sub soon.

    Impressed with Jefferson getting in the right spots and using the ball well.

    Brown has had some really impressive moments and also some really bad.

    Hunter and Billing’s have been deplorable and so hard to watch. Almost as bad as the umpiring.

    We should be way further in front but very wasteful in front of goal.

    I know it's wet, but to be 10 points up with 10 more scoring shots is criminal. Surely Choco moves on at the end of the year

    Time and time again we have free targets inside 50 but players electing to have a ping from difficult angles. Frustrating

    We are slaughtering the Bullants, only to play country style footy inside F50. Very frustrating.

    he has a lot of tackles as he's second man in at contests

    chandler's frontal pressure is much better

    • 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?
