  1. About 10 minutes into the game I was completely relaxed, knowing we'd win by 5+ goals. Opposition coaches are scared to kick the ball long and risk turnover to Gawn, May and Lever. I hadn't seen such spineless ball movement since the Neeld era Demons. Question is, does the panel think teams will move the ball with more confidence against a side missing Lever and May?  I'm quietly confident that we have the depth to cover them, I'd probably favour Petty going back with Thommo and TMac. Same Forward line as round 1 should be ok

    I think he made some good points and agree with most of what he said. 

    Everything apart from 'they were found out in the finals'.

    Our inaccurate kicking caught up with us. I don't think out game style failed us. Maybe it's semantics to some, but I think there's an argument to say we let ourselves down, more so than got found out by opposing teams in those 2 finals. 

    I agree with the instability and the question mark about whether our gamestyle will hold up again.

    Was trying to have a break from Demonland until the 2024 AFL season started.

     

    This has absolutely gutted me! Very sad news, I wish Angus Brayshaw all the best. He will always be remembered as a Demons Premiership hero who helped end our 57 year Premiership drought.

    I will squarely lay the blame of this tragic set of circumstances with that piece of excrement and all-round knuckle dragging troglodyte Brayden "the thug" Maynard! Never forget that he is responsible for all this and Angus Brayshaw being forced to retire! Be sure to BOO him incessantly when we play the scum at Collingwood! 😡😡😡😡

     

    I hope that Angus Brayshaw considers suing the AFL, Collingwood and Brayden Maynard for their lack of duty of care!

    Was going to write something similar. 

    Gutted by the circumstances and ia a massive loss on and off field.

    Could someone please explain how the review of Alex Neal-Bullen’s “non goal” worked?

    It was paid as a goal. The ball was taken to the centre and then a review took place in which it was deemed to have been touched after a quick review. I thought it was inconclusive.

    Circus competition making the interpretation of rules and processes up on the fly.

    We have a forward line built around maximising our defence.

    What is the point of having a Jaguar of a backline and Rolls Royce of a midfield if you have to almost sacrifice a third of the game (when you have the ball) to protect the Jag?

    We leave ourselves open to good teams getting us on the break as our entries are shallow, to non-forwards, and/or delayed so in traffic.

    If one of you brings up expected score without using a lamenting tone - I am going to unfollow - don’t tell me me ‘should have won’ and ‘not too much is wrong’.

    Just isn’t true.

    We could/should have won for the last 2 weeks. Hindsight says injuries to Brayshaw, Petty and Melksham cost us. 

    You can pretend alot is wrong but the reality is fine margins decide finals and we were % off with personnel and % off with polish
