POSTGAME: Rd 20 vs GWS

[Demonland 72,521]

Despite being in the hunt for most of the game the Demons capitulated early in the last quarter against the Giants before mounting a comeback but falling short by 2 points effectively ending our 2024 season. 

[At the break of Gawn 4,460]

Horrible centre bounce work by Gawn and the mids in the last qtr

[layzie 33,882]

Not good enough mate.

23 shots to 20. 
 

That’s the game.

[GCDee 3,199]

Genuinely lost that game due to the umpiring. 

[Dee Zephyr 19,267]

Yeah shizen feeling to lose, but they didn’t give up which is admirable. Especially with so much inexperience out there. 

[Graeme Yeats' Mullet 6,778]

Season over

A few games like thos one that we should've, could've, but didn't....

Hope Petty was a cheap resign - just a deplorable season

[leave it to deever 17,511]

Season 24

 

 

[MurDoc516 1,529]

Positives: A better first rounder.

Negatives: We are a long way off anything close to a team that can contend (and i'm not just talking about this year).

[layzie 33,882]

One team's season ends while another starts. Better team won 

[SPC 3,551]

Oliver was putrid in the last quarter, let Green push him around like he was a first year player. Tmac looked like the tmac of old.., Have we won a close game since 21?? We buckle like a cheap seat from Anaconda

Just not good enough.

Why can’t we seal these close games 🤷‍♀️

[JJR 681]

Billings and Laurie not up to AFL standard.

Don't vent your frustration please. You'll hurt their feelings.

Who would have thought that Tom Green would have won that last centre clearance. We were shizen all night in the middle.

[John Demonic 5,821]

Chin up young Caleb, there'll be plenty more opportunities to generate a match winner off the back of a burst down the mcg wing. He was genuinely gutted and it's great to see so much passion. Future is bright. We'll be back

Umpires genuinely cost us the game, no ifs or buts about it.

[BDA 22,785]

Tough loss.

Thought our effort was very good most of the night. stuck at it when the game looked gone

They just had that bit more class than us when it counted.

The boys can hold their heads up. We were just beaten by a better team on the night

Go dees.

[BrisbaneDemon 1,572]

Can’t go out in straight sets if we don’t make finals….

 

[dees189227 12,394]

Windsor hurt himself at the end there. He was hobbling off

With 2 goals from blatant umpire errors I tend to agree.

Fought it out which is all you can ask for but got comprehensively outplayed for 2.5 quarters. Still too many passengers and some old legs look like they're struggling late in the season. Gawn still looked underdone and once their mids tightened up after quarter time we struggled to win a clearance, Rivers went missing after a huge first quarter.

[praha 11,240]

Allowing them three centre clearances, three entrances, and three goals at the start of the last was disgraceful and cost us the game. Gawn was rucking against a guy with one arm, and our midfield was clueless. We lost the game there.

GWS were clutch?
