    Ed sounds like he's dying.

    Just watched the reply. Harmless stuff really. Just like any bunch of biased supporters following their team. "Straughney" (spelling?) is possibly the most unfunny comedian ever.

    Are you joking? Talk about the age of outrage lol

    I'll forgive you for not knowing what I had to put up with in the 80s and 90s from commercial tv. Sneer if you want, but this is hardly an isolated incident for me.

    Ed said "we r 21 points down and need to kick 4 to win the game"

    Really that is genius commentary from big ed.

    Yeah I'd love to see Ox, Titus, Sheehan and Lyon do a press red for, but prob safer to wait a few years til we have a rough idea we are going to win that game.

    Dr Turf would be brilliant

    Ian Henderson for a bit of "cred" !! :)

    Hendo is the most bias one eyed Demon supporter ever! Classic.

    Just record the game live, if we lose delete it from your planner. Doesn't everyone do this?

    A completely common sense approach. One that I sadly can't support because I've convinced myself that we never win when I record the game live. That's only one of about 37 footballing superstitions that I'm cursed with.

    For what it's worth, Hudson called the actual game and was excellent. I found him annoying in the early years, but I reckon he captures the moment very well.

    Need more professional comentators like him and Whately, than ex footy player boofheads, or try-hards like Basil and Hamish who try to fit in with the jocks.

    I, for one, will be contacting Foxtel, The AFL, and the MFC tomorrow to complain. It is offensive that every replay of the game this week has this rubbish as commentary. Imagine if this was done to Collingwood on one of their wins

    Agree, but probably not in the bailiwicks of AFL and MFC.

    Go hard on Foxtel, but…..

    Needs it's own thread. I've been supersticiously wearing this stupid red and blue striped shirt every weekend because it was obviously the only reason we beat GC in the first round.

    No need to rub it in Nasher.

    I don't mind Derm. He does dribble a lot, but from time to time does have points of interest to raise. He knows the game I think, you just need to see through the waffle that intersperses it.

    Funnily enough I reckon Eddie is a better commentator than most of the idiots on TV (when he is not doing the red-ed nonsense). Not being an ex-player he just describes what is happening rather than having folksy chats recalling old playing days, clubs we have known and bleeding obvious tactics like the others do.

    I’m in the “Derm’s not that bad” camp, but this time he was definitely more on the inane side.

    Just watching the Fox replay now.

    Absolutely disgusting commentary by Eddie, Shaw and that non-entity 'comedian' ?Strauney??

    Just plain barracking - we, we ,we, they, they, they !!!!

    Ruins any opportunity to fully enjoy the victory.

    What a disgrace.

    PS: still in first quarter - will maybe enjoy their grief at the end.

    • 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.
