... made our performance on Thursday look like Champagne football.

See, there's always a silver lining :lol:

There's no way the GC performances should be compared to ours .

We "should" be miles infront in terms of developement .

Only way that I'd compare to us is that the bummers managed a larger lead in 1 quarter than we managed in a whole game, but I must say it is really of no importance.

I'm embarrassed for you.

I'm embarrassed for us and no laughing at GC especially at the hands of the scum will help .

Sarcasm emoticon or not .

Now I'm even more embarrassed for you.

Shows up the disparency between Essendon and us nicely I'd have thought.

New game record looming and happy to lose it

Your obviously a Dk'Ed , so I don't care .

Thirty minutes is a long time in football. GC17 win the second quarter. The Bomber revival is over and some of their fans are muttering "sack Hird" under their breath.

Where do I find the sarcasm emoticon?

What really shows how bad we were is that the inside fifties in that quarter was 25-9.... We only managed 22-3

very much my thinking. It took a whole game and many many goals in junk time to amount that lead for us.

Cant help but be impressed by the Bummers today

I don't think it matters when you score the goals, we still performed well against the Suns in my opinion. GC beat Essendon in the second quarter today 5.2 to 3.0 by the way. Still, 15 goals in the first quarter pretty much seals it.

edit: also impressed with Essendon. Just goes to show you that a change in coach and admin can do wonders for a list. Essendon will trounce the Dee's in a few weeks.

Actually , to me it does. GC in the first qtr have fresh legs and all the game before them.. They jumped us. They have been pummeled by Essendon. We got our big scores agaisnt GC when they were knackered ( youngens ) We were junk time kings...Essendon have shown their ability when it really matters.

A big difference to me..:)

In that context, I do understand your position. Both Melbourne and Essendon have smashed GC, but Essendon have done it more convincingly by kicking 15 in the first quarter and the final margin is likely to be 20 goals plus easily.

The really sad thing ( for us ) is that despite the obvious difference in the sides ,GC are still having a crack, still playing with what they have at their disposal, still putting bodies on the line...... unlike some other club I could mention :rolleyes::(

But the awesome thing for us is that the likes of Tom Scully must be watching this game and wondering just how much worse GWS are going to be next season, especially if they don't attract a big name like Ablett (and they probably won't).

it hurts when Gold Coast outscore the Demons, even though they were thrashed they still managed to outscore us. :(

Ours was the 3rd worst performance from the 7 matches this week IMO.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
