Fritsch, Kozzie, Melksham and Turner with a combined 21 possessions. Melksham makes the most of his 5 though.

    Because we are playing extra in the stoppages which we never do normally. 

    Which is all cool if we're winning the stoppages......

    We can very soft at times, honestly two players tackling that should have ended in a HTB instead they let him dispose of the ball.

    Let get real where playing a top 4 side on their home ground with our two best players on side line. Hardly a surprising result. Dee’s have fought it out and sucked in King for calling out a 100 point loss.

    That Windsor speed up the middle with any kind of forward line and/or some better composure, let me dream

    Some of the goals we've conceded as they've walked into them have made us look like a bottom 4 side.

    To be fair... they really didn't have much opportunity to get many more.

    We raise our intensity and the umpires raise their intent. 

    Exactly...it seemed like every time momentum was starting to shift wr would either make an error, miss a goal or the umpires would blow a [censored] free kick.

    I am not saying it’s working. Or a good strategy. Just answering the question. 
     

    Midfield and defense should be ashamed of this performance. Senior players an absolute disgrace with lack of accountability and defensive effort. 
    No excuses and I love May but Jesus stop carrying on like a pork chop, you’ve been embarrassed today.

    • 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?
