Our kicking is poor. As usual.

Lucky omac can hit a target.

 

Some OK signs but just as many worries. ANB, Petracca, Brayshaw, Tomlinson decent.

Jetta, AvdB, Oliver and few others well off the pace.

Good pressure so far. Just need to capitalise on the scoreboard more.

3 set shots missed! We just have to fix that or we waste another season. Wasn’t Lewis taken on as goal kicking coach? He is commentating but not taking ownership. 

Hawthorns disposal have been garbage as well- it’s the wind.

 

 

Come on  Dees!  Preseason  or not Hate losing to the Mongrel Hawks. Stressed before the season actually starts.

Weid needs to start clunking marks. 


Poor skill from both teams. All the summer training and they are still rusty.  MFC dominate inside 50s with little scoreboard impact or pressure. 

whyyyyyyy can't weed mark it

he gets to the right spots time and time again, his second efforts are good, his kicking is generally sound...but he just doesn't clunk the marks

He did down back I think that might be his future.

One day Weid will take a mark. 

Yes. Built like Tarzan but plays like ... well he should be stronger at marking the footy like he really wants it. 


Really glad we've sorted our goal kicking over the summer...

Did at Casey too 

The funking hilariousness of blanket statements being made on the basis of a qrt. It’s preseason, for all :)

I did see him take that mark. U could be right Earl. 


Langdon is a 10/10 pick up. Love him. 
He is fast and he can kick. Already he’s 100 times better than anyone we’ve had on a wing in the past 4 years. 

 

Super kick from Milkshake.  Love him from that distance.

Great link up play too.

Skills aren't great, true, but the conditions aren't exactly conducive to it.  Slippery all round the ground.

  • 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.

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    The Gold Coast Suns find themselves outside of the top eight for the first time since Round 1 with pressure is mounting on the entire organisation. Their coach Damien Hardwick expressed his frustration at his team’s condition last week by making a middle-finger gesture on television that earned him a fine for his troubles. He showed his desperation by claiming that Fox should pick up the tab.  There’s little doubt the Suns have shown improvement in 2025, and their position on the ladder is influenced to some extent by having played fewer games than their rivals for a playoff role at the end of the season, courtesy of the disruption caused by Cyclone Alfred in March.  However, they are following the same trajectory that hindered the club in past years whenever they appeared to be nearing their potential. As a consequence, that Hardwick gesture should be considered as more than a mere behavioral lapse. It’s a distress signal that does not bode well for the Queenslanders. While the Suns are eager to remain in contention with the top eight, Melbourne faces its own crisis, which is similarly deep-seated but in a much different way. After recovering from a disappointing start to the season and nearing a return to respectability among its peer clubs, the Demons have experienced a decline in status, driven by the fact that while their form has been reasonable (see their performance against the ladder leader in the Kings Birthday match), their conversion in front of goal is poor enough to rank last in the competition. Furthermore, their opponents find them exceptionally easy to score against. As a result, they have effectively eliminated themselves from the finals race and are again positioned to finish in the bottom half of the ladder.
