Very very disappointing. Dominated then dropped off. Why the [censored] do we refuse to leave a tall one out in the square??????

Because that would be smart football Jaded. We don't play smart football.

Poor intensity today. Hopefully we get out of first gear and bother to run back and defend. Letting them kick those easy goals is unacceptable. 


Where’s Oliver?

Heavy tag?

Thus far the worst thing is when we inevitably do turn it over going i50 the corridor seems to be wide open for Hall and Martin to link up and carry the ball the length of the ground

They’re not wasting opportunities like we are currently

Need to clean up i50 delivery, and not overpossess.  Looking so much better, but with no reward yet.  There are 1 or 2 players from the suns we need to get into, and they fall apart.

 

was that our good quarter or our bad one ?

Seriously..ahead by miles on every stat and just ahead on the scoreboard.

 

We are the opposite of clinical

Overusing the ball. Get the backmen to pick up opponents.

If they exploit space....theyll be a big worry. Its how Richmond toreus apart.

Dew...pays attention !!


Golden opportunity for us at the end almost turned into a goal for the suns. They’re looking a bit up and about, spreading quickly when rebounding out of their defence. 

Have to come out strong next quarter. 

why does the league use a yellow footy when the seats are yellow? anyone else finding the ball hard to track against the background?

I feel sorry for our forwards, our delivery recently has been shocking. Either lower the eyes, or if you want to bomb it in long and quick, have someone tall there ffs (with a couple of roving smalls to boot). It ain't rocket science.


It appears the players have little respect for the Suns. Too much fancy play handing the ball around dinky kicking and 2 feet handballs. 

I never like us when we play like it is just going to happen. 

We are the better team on paper but Suns working much harder and cleaner in open spaces. 

 

 

We love handing it directly to our opponents dont we

  • PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

  • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
