Haven't watched the game due to being overseas, what's happened to Salem? Says he's injured, AGAIN?! 

Have said nothing on tv about it so far. He was in the midfield and then disappeared so possible. 
He is too fragile to play midfield.

    Lever has had one of the all times (for what he's impacted / contributed to).

    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. 

    Yep, I gotcha.

    We seem to be quite amazing at coming up with a strategy and sticking with it ALL game even when it's clearly not working.

    10 mins left and there's still loose Freo players everywhere in their f50

    It's that same old question mark about our lack of flexibility and adapting mid game if something is not working.

    Hasn’t been mentioned on the TV. Will let you know when I hear.

    This was never a team that was going to challenge for the flag. I had us making the 8 even with Gawn and Trac. Gonna be tough from here on out.

    After really fighting hard last week, did not expect us to be as soft as we have been today.

    Billings with 15 and a goal in a Q has been better than most

    I'm not sure what it says about our steam when Billings has already had more possessions in a half than about 3/4 of our side.

    Also I think we can dispel this is our 2nd home [censored]. Yes I know the significance of the ground but we are hopeless here.

    For what exactly?

    It was going to be hope for the rest of the season Murdoc. I'd like to change it to 'hope I've still got a little Scotch left from last week'

    Not that it makes any difference to the result but why does Sparrow continue to 'walk on water'? Seriously, when was the last decent game he has played? 2021 GF? So did everyone. Please don't give me 'he's playing a role'. [censored]. OK, midfield cupboard is fairly bare but make an example this bloke. Promote Brown and let Tom kick off the dew at Casey.

    And too slow off the mark.  Too often second to the ball.  He is simply NOT a mid fielder in any sense of the role and brings nothing to the table other than handing the oppo another opportunity at first use.

    Another terrible coaching decision from Simon today.


    Our shape around stoppage has been diabolical today along with everything else.

    Div 7 type positional awareness.

    Because something something he plays good defensive rubbish

    Lever embarrassing -  leaked goals all day.  Honestly can’t believe how lose he’s been and when he has won the ball he’s turned it over consistently

    Yes Turner, handball it back to Fritta so he can get gang tackled. 

    If a bloke of Turners size can’t mark he shouldn’t be in the team. That dropped mark was amateur hour

    • 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?
