Can’t defend kick ins apparently. Way to easy to go coast to coast. 

 

An absolutely pitiful  quarter. Our leaders (if we have any) failed to stand up and the big three mids were given a good reality check on where they actually sit in the comp. Average.

what sort of coach is Goodwin! look at how laughable our defensive structure is after a behind! go f#$% off Goodwin.


ANOTHER one.

Another chain of possession from full back to full forward.

It doesn't help that they've kicked 6 straight and we've kicked 3 points. 

Of course it's going to sound negative Nancy but I really feel the rest of this game is junk time

And 4, 5, 6 out in space. They are well drilled, we aren’t. If plan A ain’t working we don’t know what to do

On cue. Had as many in line in space. Another goal. Game over.

Only shows up around Junk time.

He's a liability 

Missed the 8 kicks, 6 marks and a goal in the first half, dazzle?  

That last piece of play from our point is the problem.  How they can get it down into their forward line without us touching it from a point in modern footy is incredible.

I am so sick of Fritz being taken into the pocket by the opposition backs because they know he's 500/1 to kick it from there...

    English done nothing all day. Coach makes a move and he kicks a goal. That's how you coach. 

    Our coach is a moron. I am sorry but the proof is in the pudding. He can’t coach against good teams. He gets outplayed so often and has no answers. We are not doing a single thing to shut down their ball magnets. 

    Where is the godDAMN PRESSURE??

    Another scoring decision decided by a Commodore 64 computer. AFL is a joke.

    Bulldogs we’re practicing kick outs in warm ups. 
     
    they are coached 

    Trac is too arrogant 

    goody can’t even tag Bont 

     

    Someone needs to tell these umpires they are NOT the stars of the show.

    • 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.
