How mammoth was Max in the last quarter. 9 possessions, 4 clearances and a goal? I was worried that Max might have been injured early because he was off the ground for a large chunk of the 2nd quarter. Didn't realise until the end that he had a concussion test.

Great interview Andy. Really enjoyed every minute of it. Chin kept his goal a game average too.

Burn Baby Burn. Disco Inferno. Love it.

13 is a special number in Judaism. 13 is the age that a Jewish boy becomes a man and become Bar Mitzvah. So Mazel Tov Clarrie indeed.

Missed you guys last week. Didn't get my Demonland Poddy fix so neither me nor my old pup Jonesy got any exercise. I thought May's post game interview on channel 7 was interesting especially in regards to acknowledging the poor disposal and the turnovers that resulted and that rather than going into their shells and reverting back to long down the line after halftime they stuck to the gameplan. Thoughts?

Further to this do you agree or disagree with Kingy that Hit out stats are overrated.

Wouldn't mind adding his class to our rotation but agree with Watson that he is in the rung below the upper echelon of A grade stars.

Imagine being a full grown adult and feeling the need to write something on a public forum criticising the way someone speaks when their own written complaint is littered with errors. Clown.

When the fixture came out and I saw this block of 3 games leading into the Bye, the Back to Back Adelaide Games and a matchup against last year's Grand Finalists Brisbane I was very worried and thought we'd be lucky to escape with 1 win. My hardwired negativity, which thanks to this podcast I now have a name for, MFCSS, I anxiously feared that we could have lost the lot. Fast forward to the end of Gather Round and we collected the 2 on the road wins and are facing a Lions team that was toothless in the first few rounds and have finally found a soft Kangaroos outfit to prey on. Still we can't them lightly. For the most part they still have the personnel that took them to within a claw of having their paws on a Premiership cup. Their forward line can be potent with their talls, mediums and smalls all capable of finding the big sticks. Their midfield has a dual Brownlow medalist roaming around and they do have a solid defence. How do we go about capping off a wonderful 3 weeks so that we can sit back and relax during the Bye?

Apologies for my wording. i meant to say that we got killed on the stats sheet.

@binman what did you make of the fact that we got killed and should have lost the game on expected score?

Welcome back Positive Lingers. Thought Ed Langdon played his best game for the Demons in a long time. Along with Windsor and Billings we have genuine weapons on either side of the ground.

I was critical of our small forwards last week but I thought they played better and contributed more this week. Do you think that it had anything to do with Kozzy returning?

Why haven't we seen the footage of the ball hitting the camera from the camera's perspective?

Forward connection, for want of a better word, was virtually non existent except for a few nice passes to the leading Fritsch. Otherwise it was just long bomb and waste all those inside 50s. It’s certainly not panic stations but I am starting to panic.

I was beginning to lose faith in Sparrow and I thought he stood up after 1/4 time and had an excellent game kicking 3 goals. We need a big year from him given Gus’ retirement and Clarry’s potential absence.

So much love for this kid. Forever a Demon.

Thanks you for another great listen. Really appreciate it guys.

Oh Balderdash. If say the coach or the CEO or the President took the responsibility that you calling for you'd be the first one to stand up and whine that we are even more in the [censored] now.

Great to have Footy and the Demonland Podcast back. What did you think of our small forward brigade? With the exception of Pickett I wasn't overly impressed and I thought Chandler in particular was MIA. Almost every time the ball hit the deck inside our 50 it went out with very little effort. Would love to see the inside 50 tackle stats.

I'll be very interested to see what our tall forward set up will be in these practice matches. Tom Lynch will not be playing for the Tiges so there is a chance to try a defender or two up forward just to work on connection in case we need to break glass at some point this season.

Count me in but I don't think any ruckman worth his weight in gold would consider coming to the Dees after the Grundy mess.

Thanks to all the Track-watchers for all your excellent reports. I'm a desk jockey and getting down to training is not an option so having all these reports is like boundary riding.
