Jump on board, Andy.

Ignorance is bliss.

At least the umps are on our side so far

Call in sick tomorrow. Be a good citizen. Never has calling in sick been more heroic. 

you'll even get paid $300 to do it!

 

By the way, Salem continues to show us why he'll never make it as a midfielder. So soft.

    Spent the quarter counting because I'm a loser.

    That's the 20th goalless quarter of Goodwin's coaching career.

    The reason we're only 3 goals behind is the short quarters

    It's mainly our backline standing up relatively well.

    Most of their inside 50s have been delivered with zero pressure because of our turnovers. To have only conceded 3 goals, it could have been so much worse.

    Perfect way to start the quarter.

    Handball error then holding the ball.  ?

    Two different rules for each team.... HTB is so [censored] 


    When I watch Melbourne play a quarter like this I can't help but think about when Pacific Island nations like Vanuatu play Australia in World Cup qualifiers and get smashed 15-0 like a training drill.

    Even when the Bulldogs get smashed like last night they still play what seems like relatively normal football.

    Melbourne is just completely irrelevant on nights like tonight

    FMD.

    At least holding the ball is a new rule this week. Did anyone else get the memo?


    Back line constantly out of position. Our midfielders are just jogging like they’re on a [censored] vacation. 
    Game over I believe.

    • 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.

      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.
