    There is a strong likelihood Richmond will play Melbourne this weekend with the QLD govt playing hardball on the Tigers flying into QLD to play West Coast. Would leave West Coast to play Sydney

    @AFLcomau

    Yep,  it's a season like no other and will not surprise me if it happens such is the severity of Victoria's infection spike.

    Gives us another opportunity to blame the footy gods when we play Richmond back into form lol.

    Perfect timing for the tigers to get back into form.

    Also we have our schedule change again, something everything week when it comes to us

    THE ROUND five fixture is set to be flipped on its head with West Coast's clash with Richmond on Thursday night expected to be postponed due to a hardline stance from the Queensland government. 

    Due to the outbreak of COVID-19 in Victoria, Queensland health officials have held fears of the Tigers flying in to play the Eagles on Thursday night. 

    It would leave the West Coast-Richmond clash and fixtured Sydney-Melbourne game for Sunday to be split.  

    AFL.com.au understands people at the Tigers were on Monday morning preparing to tackle Melbourne this weekend, while officials at West Coast were expecting to play Sydney.

    Bring it on! They are out of form and injured. We should match up well against them and get a win.

    I'm guessing we'll play Richmond on the Sunday, and Sydney will be moved to the Thursday night to play West Coast.

    Possibly throws Sydney's preparation out of whack as they've been preparing for a Sunday match rather than Thursday, but they at least played last Thursday and so get a full week's rest compared to us, we'd get 5 days with no notice.

    Tigers have been poor this year. Have watched all their games, and they've lacked cohesion going forward, similar to us. That said, we've been bottom four 18 months at this point, so with the stars they have in Martin and Lynch, I'd expect them to get themselves up to beat us.

    Once again we get screwed over, we would have beat Sydney on a smaller ground, tigers will beat us easy, this season can end already ffs

    The tigers backline will be purring and licking themselves all week to be comming up against the Melbourne forward line. Richmond will give us a bath.

    AFL website reporting Carlton and St Kilda could play Thursday night.

    Also screws us for the Freo game the following week.

    So we get one normal game out of the first 6.

    Maybe Freo have to come here now for that one????

    • 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.
