• Petracca, Oliver, May and Windsor out.

*Miller back for GC to further strengthen a potent midfield.

•South East Queensland’s hottest day forecasted in 4 months.

* MFC’s public relations at its lowest ebb since Norm Smith and the MFC had a minor disagreement.

*MFC’s first dead rubber since round 23 2019.

Aside from the above, I’m pretty bullish about today.

 

First dead rubber in 5 years. Have to say it’s been the best 5 years in my time as a Demons supporter

Usually after round 6 it was all dead rubbers and cheering if we won a quarter

    Work day today but I'll be listening in on the radio while I go about my rounds. I might even watch a replay tonight if we put on a good show.

    You a jailer @Demon4Life?

    Will miss the first half most likely, seeing a few open for inspections. Hope we put up a fight though, Go Dees.

    Are you a gyno @layzie?

    I was going to take my eldest 9yo to his first dees game and try and get a photo with Nibbler afterwards after he rang the eldest on a junior ring around.

    Unfortunately in Syd at brother in laws . 
     

    was ambivalent about missing but woke up in northern rivers this morning to an absolutely cracking day, so now a bit cross we’re not going especially as it was the last chance to see Nibbler. 
     

    go dees!

    How many 9yos do you have?!?

    Dermie saw us in the rooms and reckons it was focused and intense and angry even. 

    GC all smiles and high fives

    Lets see what happens

    Dont really care who wins but some pride in the jumper and going in hard would be great to see

     

    This game feels like a practice match. Intensity is non-existent from both sides.

    Can someone explain why all the commentators say Tollstrup not Tholstrup. Have I been saying it wrong? 😂

    We are a shell of a football team at the moment. Truly pathetic by foot, zero composure. I’m sorry but Goodwin looks to have lost them. At the moment, we are looking like the bad Melbourne of old.

    Rudderless. Big change is needed. There is no pride in this jumper from those who wear it.

    It is crazy how far we have regressed. Haven't seen us like this for many years.

    • 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?
