    Yes fatigue may happen in the last qtr for the young blokes but geeeeeeez this is exciting!

    Viney is just unreal. 
    I forget how important he really is for us until he stands out like this. Never fails us when needed the most.

     

    keep pushing lads!!!

    Manic pressure and lions crumble

    I'm seeing glimpses of 2021! I know most didn't pick the Dees to win tonight but I did. I thought after last week, a spark may have been lit. After the devastating week I have had, this is my only glimmer of joy this week.

    Ugly as sin 

    What on earth is he chewing continuously? 

    The massive change has been our tackling pressure, and that's set off a chain reaction that has resulted in a turnaround in every other phase of the game.

    The frontal contact on every Brisbane possession from Kolt, Chandler, Viney, and Kosi has absolutely flipped the script on the lions, turning them into the hunted ones and has allowed us to pressure their disposal and allow our defenders to defend ugly ball for a change. Then when we get it we're running in waves and seeing a real target in van Rooyen up forward. Fantastic stuff.

    If Tholstrup’s ball hadn’t been touched and he kicked the goal it’d almost be game over.

    I could not care about the result. I just want to see us keep cracking in, getting the ball forward and everyone playing for each other. This is a tiring way to play for a young side and they are a good side and will come. Let’s keep it up. Go Dees.

    We need to continue this into the 3rd quarter (obviously). The intensity has been unreal - it is what we have all been waiting for.

    First quarter, having a crack. Switched on.

    Second quarter, increase pressured and belief. 
    They are also starting to play for each other.

    Fantastic quarter. Most fun ive had watching us in 6 weeks.

    I hope to win but Brisbane will come - big ask to maintain this intensity for the whole game but just loving the intensity. Been terrific from the start. All I want to see. 

    Oliver with 15 disposals and a goal. Good thing we didn't drop a champion eh?

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
