    We look great with extra 4 days break. 

    Long long road but will take over those AFL protected maggots.

    Absolutely! He looks dangerous whenever he gets near the ball, and when he doesn't have it, he's working for it. Lots to like, big future.

    He is the small forward we need at the moment. Tackles hard, is confident enough to go up the ground and has footy smarts. I like his hard edge

    great win dees, jones & harmes really stood up when the team needed them to. 

    i've been telling my mates all week to keep the faith but they all chose to throw in the towel. glad i stayed strong. 

    hopefully this is not another false start and we really can get going this season. 

    up the mighty demons!!!!!!!!!!

    Winning move; They benched OMAC for that last minute

    pfft, even after a desperate one-goal season-on-the-line win you want to snipe?

    For what it is worth (and I know Oscar had a few hairy moments as always),

    O. McDonald. 8 kicks, 6 marks (1 contested), 100% disposal efficiency, 0 clangers, and 10 one-percenters.

    He did his job. Nothing special or super, but he did his job.

    Story of the win really - a bunch of players who have been in seriously bad form were able to come out and at least do 'enough'.

    Best examples would be Nibbler, Hunt, Stertch and O.Mc himself.

    Meanwhile, a couple of players seemed to actually find some of their better form, led by Harmes and Hibberd obviously.

    Eddie spaghetti said the umps were good today. 

    WTF

    What game was he watching. 

    Dumb arz 

    The umps did everything to help Whoreform - even break the rules of the game, blatantly - all the way to the half-time break. And, it showed.

    Seriously, they were bad

    The Roughead holding the ball and the non 50m were blatantly wrong and any idiot could see that

    They've had an awful year so far

    Totally agree!

    On the topic of small forwards, I like what Garlett was doing today. He doesn't have much to show for it, but he got himself into good positions, and generally looked dangerous.

    So wrapt with that win. Should’ve gone to the game in hindsight...

    Can anyone please explain that second 50m against Harmes? I saw no player run past the Hawks player at all. They didn’t show a replay either.

    Stats don't count the 2 contests he should've won but didn't even make the contest in the last quarter, resulting in 2 of the goals that Hawthorn kicked to almost pinch it

    Am away interstate so watching on tv and Fox Footy showed it in replay analysis

    I don't want to snipe either,  but Omac almost lost us the game

    Agreed. Jeffry didn’t have big stats, but he created a load of opportunities and was directly responsible for 4 of our goals from his pressure. People can continue to hate him on, and he’s not perfect (see shot at goal instead of passing to TMac), but he’s comfortably the best small forward on our list and one of the Vestberg in the league when he’s in form. His crumbing and pressure today were exactly what we’ve been missing up forward all year.

    What really pisses me off is this magical protected zone whose limit seems to vary with the whim of the umpire. Blatant similar ones not paid, blatant worse ones under the old rules (which still apply) ditto.    Since the umpires are guessing already, why not have them guess whether the player running past is likely to interfere with the player with the ball.  If not, no 50m.  Almost every one of these 'in the protected zone' penalties would require the infringing player to tear muscles to be able to change direction to interfere with the player with the ball.

    Hawthorn lost to Harmes. 

    Game was a mess, Harmes stood out like dogs balls. 

    A win is a win but my heart cannot take 3 hours of rubbish and a nail biting finish. 

    Some excellent efforts from Frost.

    And the umpires, probably 4 clear holding balls not paid against Hawthorn and a couple of iffy ones. All when we had momentum too.

    • 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.
