Why the [censored] would we sub kolt.

Sparrow and chandler have been 100000% worse 

Zero tackles given his role might have something to do with it.

Because they play the same role

Why are they all unmanned so often in their forward 50?

Ok we are down in the ruck but why so poor in defensive effort today??

You can't defend so many horrid turnovers in bad spots.

Sparrow needs to be dropped for Laurie.  Too slow and badly out of form for months now.

Is Petty worth anything as a trade now??

Even a packet of Twisties?

I'd even take Chicken Twisties

Yes the 2023 off season not looking good at all decision wise by our off-field team.

Lever is our Darcy Moore -  just wants to lay off and can’t defend a man…

can’t believe we didn’t pick a ruck - either stupidity or arrogance

Hubris. We got away with it in the wet against a B grade ruck combo but on a dry-ish deck against one of the best if not the best ruck combos in the league it was always going to bite us.

You can say "oh yeah a VFL ruck is going to be the difference in a 10 goal loss" but it just gave us no chance, being on the back foot from the get go, unable to win a clearance and the ball locked in their forward line for a large portion of the game.

Coaching clinic by Longmuir today. Utterly disgraceful effort by the coaching team. Major changes needed.

Hawks deserve to be ahead of us. Been sensational for weeks

They will be by the end of this. 

Is Melksham even playing?

He should have been subbed off rather than the Kolt

This is going to get very ugly now 

100 point loss on the cards

FFS we won a Flag on this ground…

Why would you start Salem in the middle instead of Rivers??

Rivers is a mile ahead in the middle.  SG has seriously lost the plot this season for mine.

Ahhh because we are 6 goals down and need a change. Rivers was slow and lazy in the middle today. He wasn’t dominating.

Rivers has improved the backline. Salem has been more involved in the middle.

If we had 2 Rivers we’d just play both of them.


5 minutes of sustained effort  wow

Hope you don’t pull a muscle Dees

Also allowed too many easy around ground relief marks from Darcy.

A two meter tall competitor just might get a few more of those to ground and give you a 50/50 chance.

Especially up around the wing where a ground ball win can often result in a shot on goal.

How wasn’t that 50 against the “athlete”

  • 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?
