GWS get their revenge for last year’s grand final and Tigers in a bit of a post premiership slump not helped by having some injuries and players missing from their hub.

    North on its last legs for the season ...perhaps

    Down by 4 goals in the wet against Carlton at quarter time

    Norf are absolutely terrible.  Watch them do everything they can to throw ungodly amounts of money at players who don't want to come or to those who don't deserve it.

    It's great to watch, even if it has to be Carlton beating them.

    Yet they are every chance of winning.

    And that’s a reflection on Carlton. They dominated possession and kicked 1.5 to 3.0 and it could have been another goal and the ¾ time lead to North but for an act of stupidity by Pittard.

    Pittard what an idiot. His teammate is going to have a shot for goal after the siren to potentially put them in front and he comes in and pushes the Carlton bloke over for no reason. 

    Carlton had so many inside 50's that quarter. Should be well ahead.

    Yep shouldn't have done and it was stupid.

    But Murphy flopped like he has all throughout his career.

    Was a joke of a free kick but evened up for the soft one Bailey Scott got for his goal just before it.

    c'mon the future tasmania

    As much as I hate Norf, a little trip to Carlton Big Footy after a choke would be a nice way to kill time

    Hard to watch with the umpiring in this game. 

    Yeah but how good watching fans lose their marbles at decisions. Someone let us in please.

    Geez. Even the umpires couldn't get North over the line. What a bog ordinary outfit they are.

    They were terrible ...they allowed us so much space and time.

    The GC game was a better test and revealed our skills under pressure as being scrappy but we got the job done.

    Mind you the modern game makes most teams look scrappy.. See GWS

    Very, very sad to see Hawthorn like this?

    Just watching Clarko’s presser and I’m stunned that he opened by saying he was pleased with his players’ endeavour. He emphasized it again a couple of minutes later. 

    Sorry, but there were a few players in brown and gold who showed very little endeavour at all.

    Also had a go at the umpires. Poor form when you lose the way Hawthorn did today.

    • 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.
