Why on earth would anyone pick Maynard ahead of Tyson? Crazy stuff.


I know it’s just Brissie but ruddy hell! We are outmatking them like they’re not even there. Possieion is virtually all us. I see no weak link whatsoever. As long as we don’t have our quiet quarter, this is an easy win.

Salem has been great. Tackling, chasing, influencing contests.

Petracca is a class above.

Lever has started better.

Garlett has done more tonight than all last week, getting up to the contests around the ground and imposing himself.

Tyson has been clean.

Hogan is the best forward out there by a mile.

5 goals, they're scoreless, no junk time goals to them and we're moving the ball well.  

You can't ask for a much better start when you're playing interstate.

Scrappy quarter but well done. Good to see Fritta kick that goal

Great start. If we don't fade out i can see a big win, Brissy really lacking that ball movement off half back.

I love his X factor. Can leap for marks and kick goals.

CRAPPY SPELLING

We must keep the same intensity in the second quarter, we need to be 40 to 50 up at half time!

he tightened up with that first kick... i want him to do well, but jeez he turns it over proficiently in the middle of the ground...

The first half was regulation belting game. An absolute arm wrestle before the weaker team completely capitulate. You probably haven't seen this movie much before Drunkn being late to the Dees party, but believe me, we all have.

If we are as good as I hope, this will be a hiding from here on.

3 more quarters of this please

That was a quality quarter in the end.  Our defence is far more cohesive than last week, several players who were asleep are geting things done and Tyson is adding some much-needed class.  Now we just need three more quarters of this.

In Round 1? Okay.

I didn't think we played all that well that quarter... nek minnit up by 5 goals. Nice.

  • 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.
