Jake the Snake killing it in the midfield. Jack Watts like in his delivery but mad as a cut snake around the ball.

    Two players stood out the most:

    Tim Smith.  Clunked some marks and used it pretty well.  Can he cement a spot as a third tall?

    And I've loved Goodwin's move of giving Hibberd the job on Martin.  He's kept Dusty quiet while also winning a bit of the bill himself.  Great to see Goody trying a few different things.

    Over ran a ball, then missed a handball, otherwise going well for his new contract negotiations!

    Once again being murdered by the umps. 

    Weid needs to watch Tim Smith take a mark. 

    When Oliver can be tackled around the ankles and no free kick that says it all.

    Can we sustain this intensity in the second?

    At the risk of sounding like a broken record, he is the WORST special comments person on air.  Loves the sound of his own voice, points out the bleeding obvious and can't say it succinctly.  Has to waffle on and on to make his point.  Can't stand the bloke.

    The uncontested turnovers are absolute killers.  We must have had a handful already.  Just bombing it from defence and it just comes straight back in.  

    No run from behind the ball.  One or two too many at the coal face.  Need at least one of those coming off the back of the contest for the receive and ideally another forward of the contest (Geelong are brilliant at this in defence).  Get it forward by hand and commence overlap and create run

    Lets stitch Harmes and Petracca together like Siamese twins after this season.   I want them to Trac square fore 3 months after the season.  

    Should see an improvement, immediately after removing the sutures.

    Our general field kicking may be the death of us.  Clean it up FCS!

    With the election coming up, I'm thinking of forming my own political party. The 'Get Ling Off The Air Permanently Party'. I only need 500 members to register.

    Let's be honest - we're not the cleanest side at the best of times, and this dew is playing havoc with us at the moment.  Can't fault the endeavour one bit, but if we don't clean it up a little, then we can't win this game of footy.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      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.
