A shout out to some things that might go under the radar.

Fullarton a good chop out for Max, and seemed to understand his forward role well.

The tackling from Viney, Trac and Oliver. A lot of in-close hard work from all three.

Langford's strength and poise in the last quarter.

The gut running from Langdon, Chandler, Rivers and Spargo in the last quarter.

The quiet but effective games from Howes and Windsor.

    Just heard on the radio Max say at 3QT "We ain't losing this"

    If Max Gawn says we ain't losing this, you better just take it to the bank.

    The Bison must have been listening

    Got the lead out of our saddle bags in Fritz and JVR. Petty with 4. Go Dees.

    I think at face value those two have been contributing to our woes. Not solely responsible, but the forward line functioned better without them today. I hope they are made to earn there way back.

    Pressure!!

    Not being ungrateful at all because all we want is a W but we still leak like a sieve.

    With those numbers you shouldn't be conceding 97 points.

    Credit where its due to Goodwin and the leaders.

    Terrific result but more importantly the way we played was outstanding

    As much as I'm ecstatic with the victory, Why does it have to take us starting down the abyss to play desperate hard fast footy like today?

    And accurate kicking wins games

    Controversial opinion - but if we don't make finals, I think it might have been better for the club long term if we'd lost that game.

    I hope I'm proven wrong but I'm convinced Goodie is not the way forward and this is just delaying the inevitable.

    Controversial is not the word that comes to mind.

    Hooray!

    A win! Finally!

    How good was Harvey "The Bison" Langford?!

    Congratulations to the players and coaching staff.

    Hopefully, things are starting to turn in our favour.

    GO DEMONS!!! ❤️💙👹

    No Lever no May no McVee. Petty up forward. Disco concussion.

    It was certainly not perfect but I’m not gonna complain about our rag tag group keeping their prolific scorers under 100.

    You could see we were pressing up just about 10m too high and Freo were super good rebounding off a defensive turnover. They are top 4 in the AFL at this so not surprised that they did this well.

    In the NBA all the teams used to foul Ben Simmons because he can't shoot free throws.

    If I was the opposition and Max marks it 70m out I'd dead set give away a 50m penalty on purpose to force him to take a close range set shot

    Means everything doesn’t it.

    It is great to win again. Grat effort to kick over 100 points in a game. The 4 first round picks in the last 2 years played well. I hope they play many more games together. The style played today was what I watched at training over the summer.

    Defensive pressure not really seen since GC game late 24.

    Most of our kicks actually went forwards and to team mates.

    Handball chains slick....

    Sadly I think it has come to the point that he should be told to try to kick a point on the right hand side of the goals. When he starts scoring points (and not on the left side!) he can be asked to aim at the goals again.

    Might even tune in to the replay of the 1st half this week.
    1st time in a long time I've had such a notion.

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?

    • CASEY: Collingwood

      It was freezing cold at Mission Whitten Stadium where only the brave came out in the rain to watch a game that turned out to be as miserable as the weather.
      The Casey Demons secured their third consecutive victory, earning the four premiership points and credit for defeating a highly regarded Collingwood side, but achieved little else. Apart perhaps from setting the scene for Monday’s big game at the MCG and the Ice Challenge that precedes it.
      Neither team showcased significant skill in the bleak and greasy conditions, at a location that was far from either’s home territory. Even the field umpires forgot where they were and experienced a challenging evening, but no further comment is necessary.
