The only comment worth noting that is not about Max is this (and I'm not joking):

Who's going to lock down on Sharp?

    It is a grave injustice that this thread has no other comments

    These are my faves

    Although maybe it’s a reflection of how civil this mob’s fans are

    It really is slim pickings. All the talk from bigfooty Brisbane board is about Gawn vs Big O. Big O is struggling big time and they are worried Gawn will dominate. McInnerny is getting epidurals to get him through the pain. A lot of comments about playing Fort instead or tag teaming Gawn, however Fort has been dropped.

    The draw to North last week has really put doubts into their minds. I'm surprised they aren't more confident, but I guess we usually matchup well against them.

    Some standard comments that I've picked.

    1.This game against Melbourne is going to be a tough game especially as Gawn is playing so well in the ruck.

    2.Gawn's clutch marking all over the ground is such an asset, I'd love to see how we can use Payne to get to those contents and nullify him in the air as much as possible (especially against a weaker tall forward line)

    3.I am a tad worried about Kosi as well, always seems to go well against us, does not need many touches to cause damage, I assume Answerth goes to him.

    Also think this game will be very tough, the Dees have played some decent footy the last few weeks albeit in patches, we would not want to take them lightly like we did North    .

    4.100% on Kossi he slays us keeps them in games against us and i always get nervous when he is near the ball inside our D50.
    Melbourne like a low scoring game if Kossi gets us like he normally does they will be in this 1 and perhaps cause an upset if we play in the manner we did last week (looking at our mids whilst saying this)
    And if B.Frisk gets his out the back ****min goals that he has a rich and proud history of....im quitting footy

    Probably something like “do our players know that Max Gawn doesn’t play for us?”

    Every week no matter who we play the opposition supporters say why do we always kick it to Max Gawn?

    They don't he's just everywhere

    Yep. It always makes me laugh that opposition fans think Gawn is getting the ball because they’re giving it to him, rather than because he’s just that bloody good!

    No juicy nuggets. As mentioned above, there is a lot of frustration with their players kicking it straight to Gawn. A lot of disappointment in their midfielders not working hard defensively.

    These are the only worthy mentions from the bigfooty post match thread on Brisbane's board.

    1. Noah terrible, and how Harris continually gets bullied by Melksham is frankly pathetic.

    2. Goodwin may be average in many areas but he does a really good job in identifying opposition weapons and get plans in place to blunt them.

      Melksham on Harris and Petracca playing on Dunkley were interesting moves.

      Highest tackle count on Lions side was Lester with 5. Even Dunkley had only 4 as I think Petracca went defensive on him. Rest didn't bother.

    3. Note to Brisbane defenders. The big bald dude is not - I repeat NOT on your team.

      I know we were wearing a different jumper today but it's not excuse for not being able to kick to a team mate. How many kicks inside attacking 50 didn't even go to a challenge, let alone to our advantage? And clearing defence ..... what a ****ing joke. Just keep kicking it to the biggest guy on the pitch and hoping he doesn't just send it straight back.

    4. Gawn was always killing us today. He is the best ruckman to ever play AFL/VFL football. He will be a hall of famer as soon as the waiting list is over post retirement. Criteria is 5 years. He will get it as soon as he is eligible

    • 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?
