    lol @ Richmond players prancing around like they are any good

    Too bad we arent playing them next week to put them back in their place again

    They are absolute hacks playing against a team that is literally not even trying

    You know you are a bad team when you make Vickey and Hampson look good.

    At least from Scully's perspective he'll have enough cash to cover that pathetic "wrestle." (Are players still fined for wrestling?)

    Tiges go from 6.18 to 14.2 in consecutive weeks.

    I'm really enjoying watching Scully play in this game. I reckon he couldn't care less because it's not about winning it's all about the $$$$.

    I have never seen a back six give their opponents so much rope and such little body contact. As funny as it sounds, GWS were all over them in te first quarter, but couldn't convert and Richmond just took the chances the lacklustre GWS defence was giving them. From then on, GWS have given up and Richmond are full of beans.

    They never had a chance. If there's one certainty in football, it is that Jack Riewoltd will kick goals just as soon as it doesn't matter anymore. That said... oh Giants... that's just getting embarrassing.

    Maybe they will have to bring in Andrew Demetriou to run the place, since so far he's the only person who has 'won' them anything.

    Sigh, I spent a couple of months up in Sydney recently and I have to say the atmosphere at Giants games was cheerful enough. Small but happy crowds who were quite cheerfully aware that any win was an upset and that for now it was just about enjoying the potential and individual performances. And of course, the win over Sydney had them well excited.

    But this... as we all know, massive losses when you're expecting to see improvement and competitiveness really suck the fun out. And the Giants will only have crowds at all for as long as it is seen as fun.

    Jack Riewoldt. 5 marks, of which all five are inside forward 50m. None of them contested. Debacle.

    What the? He has a running bounce to his name?

    7.19 one week

    18.3 the next

    That's the importance of pressure.

    Clearly match fixing

    Who has turned their kicking around this week?

    Dwayne informs us that the crowd is silent. No crowd=No noise.

    You'd be [censored] if you were one of his teammates who was on far less money, despite being a far superior player which most of them are.

    You'd have to laugh at Leon Cameron wouldn't you?

    Jeremy Cameron starts off in the backline and Heath Shaw on Jack Riewoldt? Absolute [censored] imo.

    Gws would have been so much better off if they just did the right thing by choco Williams and he was in charge

    Shame about the draw , i wouldve rather have played Hawthorn, Geelon, Freo and Port in those early rounds.

    We play saints and GWS now and we win.

    Hope they implode. Was destined to fail. It was all about Vlads ego. Wouldn't listen to advice including from Roos that it would be a hard sell. Also Sheeds has a lot to answer for. Can't say I'm sorry. The Scully decision must be biting them in the bum. What a joke he's a million dollar player. Doubt he's one of their top 5 midfielders - run with player at best with no penetration with his disposals.

    Gees schadenfreude I feels good.

    Expansion sides are always going to have alot of young talent but the suns recruited players to set standards and examples for them the giants have failed because sheedys ego meant he had to do it his way and it hadn't worked.

    I found it funny too, trying to stick it up us when we actually won the Scully situation, they got a million dollar [censored] and we got Chris Dawes among others.

    like ablett laughed at GCS when they offered him the keys to the safe?

    jazza I think there is a big difference

    Ablett had won premierships and B and F's etc he had done it all, to him GWS was the big pay day.

    Frawley gives every indication that he wants to play in an winning team including finals, now a salary increase would not hurt but if he goes to GWS I will be amazed.

    Besides a bigger wallet the only thing he has to look forward to at GWS would be more of what he had at the MFC in 2012 -13

    This is the main reason i consider Vlad's tenure of the AFL to be very poor.

    It is such a waste of both huge amounts of resources and cash.

    Kelly hasn't touched the ball after coming on in the 3rd. Haha

    If Scully wasnt on one million per year he wouldnt even make their team

    But, but, he's such a great trainer and so professional, so he's definitely worth the money. Hahhahahahahahahahahah, sucked in GWS

    • 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.
