spargo is so overrated here 

He is one player that has a red hot crack every time he is in which is more than you can say for others but he is just too small and limited which is a shame

    And JKH hasn’t been as bad as some say. Can see some of Neville Jetta in him. Could be our next small defender.

    I've got my annual Breaking Bad rewatch on one channel with the Dees on the other (muted of course). Far less stressful. Some kind of zen has come over me since last week, clearly.

    We're playing poorly, so is Adelaide, but we're worse. Adelaide is seriously average, and if we lose this, so are we.

    Oscar McDonald versus Jenkins is a comedic battle.

    We can win this. Midfield must dominate more.

    Nothing like Nev. 

    Not strong in the contest

    Not strong over head

    Literally [censored] himself if he has the ball and there is opposition within 5 meters

    Cant kick

    Only still in it because Adelaide are so ordinary. Any half decent tem would be 6-8 goals up already. I'm officially over Garlett, delist. Petracca is the ultimate built like Tarzan plays like Jane, not a footballers [censored]

     

    Oscar is doing quite well considering Jenkins is a lot stronger.

    Brayshaw, Oliver, ANB, TMac and Gawn are our top 5 players so far. Hard fought match, we are right in this.....fighting hard Dees. Good to see.

    [censored] you Melbourne with your [censored] typical shot on goal on the siren. 

    [censored] your tackling. [censored] your softness. [censored] your defensive efforts. Argh!!!! 

    We’re not playing well but effort is there. Had we kicked straight we’d be in front so relax. A lot of nerves out there, ball is hot and slippery

    So lucky.  We were so fumbly and rushed.  They dominated us in the first.  We should not still be in it, but we are. Maggots-my god they are one sided.  Gotta switch up at half time

    We might get investigated for tanking playing JKH, Smith and Spargo.....

    Everyone's complaining about JKH, Garlett, Spargo, and Smith. I'm over here wondering when Jesse Hogan is going to show up.

    Umpires setting a new standard for worst umpiring of the year.  Two first half goals to the Crows from marginal RUBBISH, Zero to us.  That deliberate out of bounds against Smith was a shocker, has been half a dozen worse sense from Adelaide that haven't been paid and in front of goal.  This stuff really makes me mad.

    Hogan's trade value decreasing with each week.

    I feel like we were on top for most of that quarter, Adelaide got gifted a couple of goals from the umps and we missed some very getable opportunities (JKH, Harmes, Garlett). 

    But certainly Max came into the game more, as did Brayshaw, Clarry, and Petracca (although he wasted it a couple of times). 

    We’re well and truly in it, but we’ve got to start taking our chances. Kicking goals is how you silence the crowd. 

    Are we 10 goals down and I am unaware? Any positives? It’s a tight tough game. We are having a crack. They look better structured forward and moving the ball out of stoppage are cleaner than us. Well in it if we get cleaner and take our chances as they tire. If we are going to be critical Jones and Hogan need earn their pay in the second half. Both been poor.

    Spud vs Spud makes for a fascinating contest.

    With how our tackling is going, maybe it’s time to try Vanders. I can’t imagine he’d be worse than Tyson who is like a snail out there.

    • 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.

      With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
