Best thing i ever did was switch to the cricket half way through the 2nd.  Anyone who is still contemplating...it's never too late!

    ran into the tackle 

    We often do that. Clear first options open, but decide to change direction and get caught.

    On the bright side tonight’s performance has taught me something. If I leave at half time I can be home by 3/4 time.

    i know some of you might think that’s soft; but in my defence I was there for a quarter longer than many of our players.

    No completely justified. An apology should be sent to each and every member.

    this has been a common theme for 3 years, mono.

    Yep but at least last year with Tom fit and in form, Melksham fit and in form, Weed developing and Jesse from time to time we had a semblance of a forward line and won a few games.  Totally at sea all this year with all three remaining carrying injuries.

    I know this is going to be controversial but can we have a kpi around goal kicking accuracy for anyone we recruit who might play in fwd half of ground ?

    Can't agree - he has always been a dodgy set shot. What we're seeing is pretty much par for the course. Though at least he's taking shots, albeit missing.

    He kicked 32.24 last year and was no. 1 for goal assists so his kicking was pretty on point for the most part last year. Maybe like a few others last year was the aberration. ?

    Do we have a strategy coach, a tackling coach, a kicking coach, an opposition watch coach??

    Indeed do we actually have a coach at all??

    • 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.
