Wouldnโ€™t get a game at Oodnadatta โ€” not because heโ€™s not talented, but because Kevin the club sheepdog applies more pressure, impacts more contests, and doesnโ€™t need four GPS trackers to prove he was โ€˜in the areaโ€™.

Brilliant Analogy and 100% correct

Out: Sharp, Johnson

In: Lever, Viney

Turner will be moved forward. He's actually pretty good at ground level and he's in great form. Petty to be back up ruck.

Like it or not, we just can't have 4 tall defenders so Turner has to go forward. I'd prefer AJ over Petty in the ruck, but Petty's marking and contest work edges out AJ.

I'd put Spargo as the sub as I think Fritta deserves a full game after his efforts.

Agree, but would have either Sharp or Brown as sub. Spargo at Casey where he belongs! Not quick enough, nor kicks enough goals as a small forward!

I think Lever comes straight in next week, he pushes Windsor out of the backline. I would also drop Sharp and Spargo. Any of Viney/Pickett/Langdon could fill the HF spots. Windsor can play a mix of HF or wing.
In: Viney, Lever
Out: Spargo, Sharp



Would like to see Windsor back on the wing rather than play in the backline, with the swans down players courtesy of the tribunal and their form at the G. This is a gettable game if they bring the same effort as they brought against the lions.

Yeah the other option is push Viney to HF to play that pressure role ahead of Sharp, Spargo or Sparrow. They mentioned it On The Couch last night and how Viney out also allowed more mid time for Rivers which you'd like to see continue.

As you probably know, I've been asking for Viney to play a forward role for 5 years, but they never do it. There's always a chance they start it this week.

I've been surprised they've never rotated him through the forward line.

Instead of pulling players off all the time , I'd prefer to see some just change role for periods.

Imho not only can they bring other sides of their respective games to bear but also challenges the opposition in match ups etc.

Overated, harking back to the 70ts type footy. Cannot possibly sustain a 5 possession game and a lucky goal surely!

I know, I know

But he's a bull - love to watch him knock blokes over

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    โ€œMax 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.โ€ - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasnโ€™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 Oโ€™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, thereโ€™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 Demonsโ€™ poor use of the football, itโ€™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 Campbellโ€™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?
