How f'ing hard is it for our back to pick up an opponent when the ball is in our f50, knowing that it's likely the ball will slingshot into their f50?

Dumb football

    We're Fremantles [censored] unfortunately. They've had it over us for years for some inexplicable reason despite being a bog average side.

    So Freo just run players forward as they know they'll win most of the ground ball comtests and just sling shot it with speed via quick hands then the long kick out the back.

    The only way to counter that is to either win more one v one contests, dont turn the ball over so often and/or play man on man for a while.  The latter is something we seem incapable of bringing at all, let alone for 10 or so minutes.

    I just don't know why they have to push so relentlessly high.

    Well done Windsor. Ffs just hurt them if you can’t do anything else.

    Goody simply has to go at years end. No it’s not all on him this woeful performance, but he’s the bus driver and has lost control.

    [censored] senior players are an embarrassment today

    thoroughly disgusted with this performance

    hang your heads in shame senior players. getting smashed by Freo not once but twice is pathetic beyond belief

    i'm turning this rubbish off and taking the dog for a walk. much better use of my time.

    Like him but Kade Chandler has probably been gifted too many games.

    Theres no point in complaining. We were never set up to win. Not this game or this season. Inexcusable to make your list worse in the off season and we went and did that.

    Perhaps Lever and May are just following the Game Plan.

    I’ve never been this disappointed in Viney. I love the bloke but start hitting them hard

    Truly embarrassing. 

    Same thing, every time. 

    Have we caught on? 

    Nope. 

    Nibbler needs to play midfield all game now. Nobody can defend like him.

    Where's the pride. Your meant to come out breathing fire after a team has done what Freo did last time. Same with the Pies and Blues game. Just no heart. 

    So far we've dropped 3.4%. Drop another 2% and we'll go below the Dawks.

    • 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?
