Despite the result I thought that was a good game to watch. If we want to play finals we shouldn’t be hoping results go our way, just keep winning and then other results mean nothing.

100 percent we are much better than both those teams was enjoyable to watch. I am liking this footy frenzy. Much more enjoyable than recent seasons

    Yeah I mean if we’re to make finals we need to jump the teams like Collingwood and GWS by beating them. They’re the teams we should be rooting against. 
     

    Hoping Essendon lose is pointless because we’ll jump them anyway if we keep winning

    I mean as much as I wanted to see Essendon lose for our sake I kind of wanted to see Essendon lose for the sake of seeing Essendon lose.

    Did someone this doesn’t help us? If the cheats won then they would be 4 points in front of us. 
    i have no idea how the cheats let them subs back into the game. They had it sewn up. 
    bombers are going nowhere. We should beat them comfortably 

    I didn't see any of the game last ngiht but just watched the last 2 minutes of the afl site. Gee the suns had there chances in that time. King could have maybe taken more time to have his shot and probably should have kciked it.

    Rankine how he did not kick that to the top of the square I will never know. It just had to get there to be pounched through. But that was a good smother by McGrath at the end there because that ellis kick was probably going to at least get a point. 

    On one hand I was happy to at least the bummers not win but on the other hand they still got 2 points. Hopefully the saints rolll them on sunday

    Rankine needs to be more for GC and less for Rankine. Two examples so far. Last night and a few weeks ago.

    Very surprised that Rankine didn't try and kick a torpedo punt with a ring of Suns players if front of the pack to mark a mis-kick; from torp's they normally fall quite short.

    Holy [censored].. GWS dropping this game and by a big percentage means that this game is a HUGE must win game.

    Its simple, we beat Collingwood, we go to 8th spot.

    C'mon Dees let's dare to dream!

    • 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.

    • 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.

    • NON-MFC: Round 15

      As the Demons head into their Bye Round, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches being played. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons if we can manage to turn our season around?
