Ok, they need to kick as many goals in the last as they have all match. We need to kick 2 and we win.

 

What a shame the umpires haven't improved their skills during lockdown. Razor Ray = still no idea.

    Any danger in Tom McDonald doing something decent?

    He’s been poor for a while now. Needs to massively improve

    That is EXACTLY what we needed and need Petracca to be. Someone to take the game by the scruff of the neck when its in the balance. 

    100% agree. Been saying for two years he has got to be a bit more selfish and take shots himself, rather than always look to do the team thing and look for the pass (though he does that well)

    Melksham has been terrible.

    Jetta still got it.

    C'mon Dees find that first quarter form. Gawn BOG then Petracca, then Oliver then Langdon then Salem then Hunt

    Nope, Smith has been pretty disappointing in my books

    Smith is being played out of position.

    He needs to be forward which is further reinforced by McDonald’s inability to provide a target.


    I'll be putting ny phone away for 25 mins. Still can't handle the close ones

    Loving Petraccas game. he looks dangerous every time he goes near the ball. With viney, if he gets hold of you you are gone.

    It was meant for HB, but he wasn't expecting and ran forward.  lack of knowing your teammate yet.

    Steady, you are Demonland, joy,  despair, ecstasy, vitriol, hand wringing all in the same minute

    Expecting dispassionate observation?

    How did he miss Harmes getting 50 and then getting blatantly blocked on his way to down to take the kick?

    It's a clear second 50 and certain goal when we had all the momentum.  Ridiculous he let that go.

    Hogan kicked 2 goals in the seconds game today.  Would prefer us to have at least one big target.

    We're better off just kicking it along the ground and hoping for the best at the moment.

    Now lets see about our supposed fitness


    What has happened to TMac?

    Totally bereft of confidence.

    Is it just me or does Jackson have a completely confused look every time he gets the ball?

    • GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road for their 3rd interstate game in 4 weeks as they face a fit and firing Crows at Adelaide Oval. With finals now out of our grasps what are you hoping from the Dees today?

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
