Grant Thomas commentating on SEN shows why he has little respect... makes comment on a demons player and forgets his name. Who should it be but the guy that just about single-handedly ended his coaching career a few years ago... Brock.

You'd think that while not expected to know all players at all times, knowing exactly who is playing in the game you are being paid to commentate would be a given......

Apparently and unfortunately not, maybe he could check the numbers in future if he continues to get confused or senile ;) !!!

Yeah, he's only been playing AFL for about 5 years...

Meanwhile, demons accounting for themselves very well with everything except disposal. The only thing separating the sides is kicking into fifty and at goal.

MFC: 0.1 - 1

ADE: 2.3 - 15

Moloney, Brock and Davey among the possession getters. Davey our best apparently, and one of few using it well.

A quick Dermie stat. Crows are up to 20 running bounces, Demons just the one.

Crows getting touches everywhere. Goodwin up to 12, Johncock, Dangerfield, Bock, Edwards, Otten, Vince all 8+... Not good signs.

Is this game as bad as it sounds? Bad skills, good endeavour, hardly any goals... not dull, but a long way from watchable?

And however good our defenders are, our forwards are twice as bad...

Worst game ever!!!

Can't believe I'm freezing to death for this [censored].

Idiotic team selection to into the game with Juice and Bate and then let Adelaide do as they please by playing the most hidious defensive game I have ever seen.

Terrible!

And with that Juice, you are now living on borrowed time. You will not last more than a couple more years as a demon, if that. No player in a growing side does that TWICE and goes on to great things.

For the first time since he took the reigns at the club I'm REALLY disappointed in Dean Bailey. His game plan today has stunk and he actually lied about what he wanted us to do - which was kicking it long and getting it into our forward line quickly - nothing could have been further from the truth with all these stupid handballs!! Plus we went in to the game with 3 tall forwards when it was always going to be a shocker of a day. How Maric continues to miss out is baffling. Our forward line pressure has been non-existant too, although with all the players we are pushing behind the ball it doesn't surprise me.

I'm quite embarrassed by the performance today...

Unless he kicks 5 in the last quarter he will be straight out of the side for Robbo next week... against Geelong. I shudder to think of what they will do to us next week!

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
