Max might not see the year out. 

Hes playing against probably the best ruckman in the league by a fair mile. He won't be the last to have their colours lowered by Xerri

Same movie as 2022, 2023, 2024.

Nothing has changed.

Goodwin and his empty promises. So much for the new game plan.

The club has been expecting the backline to win games for us.

Defenders don't kick winning scores.

Why doesn't JVR ever lead? Petracca goes down there in Q3, leads and gets a free. JVR waits at the back of the pack, waiting for the big bomb, which he never marks ( he's a two-grabber). Turner leads occasionally, but JVR.....

I think I’ve seen 3 times he’s lead and the kick has gone over his head. We can’t kick to the advantage of our forwards. On top of that it’s a lot of just bombing it high and long. Again. For years.(Forwards also not moving to dangerous places)

    He's really melted down today. Got the body language of a young Jessie Hogan.

    He'll come good once he's elsewhere 

     

    Im sorry… but that’s 50.

    he isn’t allowed to be there

    Where is the communication from the ump about the mark?

    more stupidity. this time petty

    we're well and truly cooked

    • Thumb Down 1

    Breaking down all over the ground, clearances out of the middle are few and far between and when we do it is a long bomb into the air, no one down forward can take a contested mark. Ball use off half back is sloppy and just average at best. We look slow and unskillful. Forward line issues have haunted us since the grand final. Long season.


    Unfortunately we can't tank because Essendon owns our [censored] this season. Otherwise I would say just play the kids, start building the future.

    Thank you Max, May and a couple more vets.

    Not sure what to do when you clearly see no care whatsoever from some of our senior players.

    Only comfort from this is knowing we’re not a snowball’s chance of challenging this year. It’s the hope that kills you. 

    Game over. What a pathetic disappointment.

    Time for the proper rebuild.

    This is going to be a 10 goal loss 


    Petty is such a lazy and not smart footballer. Lever isn’t overly footy smart either. Heck the whole team plays stupid football.

    • 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?
