Great effort from the boys. We still can’t kick goals to save ourselves but can’t fault the effort.

    I might be crazy but we look the better team. They're getting free kicks and we're also turning the ball over too much. If we tightwn things up more we should get more isolation forward. But they're at 60% F50 conversion. They don't lose at the Gabba when it's >50%.

    Nah just like the Collingwood game. Brisbane aren’t playing well but still beating us, we ain’t a top 8 team right now

    Fritsch is getting monstered by Andrews in the marking contests.

    The cost of having an out of form Petty coming in.

    That means its mostly on Rooh to stand up here and Petty as well

    Great kick JVR. 
    should’ve tried on your first attempt

    If you take a mark and opponent knock ball out of hand 50. Not if the game is in Brisbane. Love Roo

    JVR having a career best game so far.

    Nice goal from the Roo. That's how you finish a set shot.

    I love the fight we’re seeing. Our contested ball is so much better than previous weeks.

    • 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?
