    And seriously Frost! How the [censored] can u argue that [censored]!

    17-3 center clearences.. [censored] disgusting our mids

     

    That was not a push in the back free kick, btw.

    Our midfield are shocking.  BEaten in every contest, not covering dangerous opp players.

    Sheesh

    Allowing man bun stick man to kick 4 in that quarter?

    And that’s the winner. 

    Goodwin make a move. Seriously this coach! 

    Biggest fraud in the entire industry. Been saying it for ages.


    We would’ve won this game an hour ago if we could even halve centre clearances. Our centre bounce work has been pathetic.

    Clarry's finish today has been mostly shizen other than one easy short pass inside 50 that found a target.

    Seriously need to fix that or he'll be known as a ball getting beast but at the same time a turnover king offsetting the good work.

    I reckon Gus is gone.  And T-Mac also.  Time to trade both.  Seriously flawed teasers who will never take us to the promised land.

    Game over.

    Oliver, Gawn, Harmes, Brayshaw..

    All [censored] terrible!!

    I’m going to give Gawn a break. Oliver has also been horrible. Dumb handballs, unaccountable, now two way running. 

    Our midfield needs an absolute rocket. The worst performance I’ve seen from them all year, which says a lot.

    Need to have serious look at the midfield. The centre clearance stats are killing a team that supposedly has a dominant ruckman.

    Like our forward line and the gameplan it doesn't work


    How can someone that looks like that and is named Eric be dominating us like he is? Eric!

    Mate it was a clear push. Had 2 hands on his back.

    Oliver was clearly held by the arm and unable to contest the ball, but no holding the man for Melbourne players. On the other hand a Brisbane player gets brushed and wins a free kick. Rubbish, umpires.


    This is just so typical at no stage could you have any confidence. The good aspect at some stage there need to be acceptance the last seven years of rebuild has been a farce. Same mistakes happening for years it never changes. Putting aside school yard errors the over possessing of the football particularly in the middle is pathetic. Whilst Goodwin is coach expect many more years of this garbage. Being bottom three is about right.

    Stoppage coaches instructions: If we win the ball in a pack everyone stand completely still and make sure you handball to someone with at least two opponents on them. Combined iq of this club is well below average, well well below, coaches especially.

    Midfield are getting a toweling. Coach has to swing a change. Sticking a tackle in the middle might help. Max is on one leg. Couldn’t really jump for half that quarter. Not until it warmed up a bit. We shoot ourselves in the foot too often

    • 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.
