Really?

Brown and Petrie combined kicked 3 goals and neither was ever that dominant.

Gawn was smashed by Goldstein in the first quarter but fought back after that and by the end of the game Goldstein wasn't as dominant as it looked like he was going to be.

This game wasn't lost at the selection table, it was lost in the first quarter and with the subsequent errors made by senior players.

    Plus Waite their big men provided targets all day and allowed them to move the ball quickly.

    Gawn was out on his feet in the third and got soundly beaten around the ground.

    Providing a target is one thing. Akum's post suggested they'd dominate the game - they didn't. Waite played well later in the game but Brown was subbed off and Petrie hardly influenced the game.

    Besides which, looks like Fitzpatrick would have been a late withdrawal from the seniors anyway if he'd have been picked.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
