    111 point loss to Geelong in Paul Roos last game.

    They knew they'd win tonight even when 5 goals down in the 4th, why would they respect us?

    You're forgetting the club sending members finals reminders just before losing to Collingwood last year to miss finals by .5 percent. Tonight's game hurt almost as much. Perhaps more.

    When we needed to dig deep  and get in and under and scrap hard in the last 10 minutes we just couldn't do it. We are mentally frail and when you are 29 points in the last and doing it easy enough after working hard for 3 quarters and winning the quarters you should be in a winning position. We couldn't wipe the smirk off Scotts face. I am guttered and it is mentally scarring myself as well. I am sure it is hurting many of us. I hope for %$@# sake we click and decide that we have to beat the these teams around us to be a better team..........

    I said enough l have had enough however l didn't think l would take this as hard from a loss. Well l did . I am shattered.

    The players panicked. As usual.

    I think the coach panicked myself. He has no idea about defending

    as i said in another thread. Who gives a flying F if we have 115% for only 11 wins

    Flat track bullies. When things are good, everything’s groovy. The moment an ounce of pressure is applied we go to water (on field and in the box)

    Chokers ...effing chokers!  Yes they kill their supporters,  there’s nothing more to be said.

    I’m not angry, i’m just astounded how this club continues to find new ways to disappoint us.

    How a team can give up a 5 goal lead, after kicking 5 straight goals to establish such momentum, and lose is inexcusable.

    What could Simon Goodwin possibly say in his Press Conference. 

    All the blame lay fairly and squarely at his feet. He such a stubborn bastard in terms of his tactical nouse eg killing a game or nullifying a player when hot eg Hawkins.

    He either doesnt know how to implement such tactics or he is such a stubborn, stupid, moronic Manager of Men.

    • 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.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
