    You mean gws have supporters? I thought they hired those blokes with monk wigs who turn up at their games.

    I literally don't know of a GWS supporter. I don't live in Sydney though, so perhaps there are 5,000 up there.

    Interesting that their two wins this year and yesterday's close loss all happened in wet conditions. Given the talent on their list, their (on average) younger legs and slighter bodies, I would have expected GWS to perform better in fast, dry conditions.

    Young teams make mistakes.

    Mistakes are harder to capitalise on in the wet.

    I have family in Sydney across the board with age and location. None of them know anyone who follows GWS.

    I know of a LOT of people who have adopted GWS as their "second" team here in Canberra..

    What is a second team really..

    MFC and only MFC for me

    A second team is like a friend of your sister that you used to kiss when you were 12 yo.

    You still like her and dont want to upset her now that shes turned ugly.So you just pretend to like her {when they beat a team we all hate}and show happiness when she does get a{win a game} boyfriend.

    I have MFC and then Casey as my second team... does that count?

    Sit next to one of GWS's players brothers at work so his interest keeps me looking at them however they are quickly becoming the team I dislike the most. I'm a bit of a sicko and take satisfaction out of seeing them get pumped each week and hope so many players want to leave at this years end.

    Cannot agree with you on this one deeko they are far from the team I dislike the most.

    That spot is reserved for the Crows they are so far entrenched that no one will every supplant them.

    GWS is still in front of WCE, Collingwood and Essendon.

    Yeah thats all good..

    I just dont see how someone can claim to have a second team in the same competition. I do like your definition tho Jezza..

    • GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
