Gold Coast losing it rather than Pies winning it.

That free and 50 to Crisp was a disgrace

What do you mean? Disgraceful by Ellis or the call by the umpire?

No. We cost our own season.

Tongue and Cheek DD, relax.

Damn shame.

Thought the Suns were the better team tonight, but just couldn’t capitalize.


First nail in the coffin of our season goes in.

I thought the Pies were the most likely to drop out, but that’s gone now. GC really could have won this with a bit more composure. That Holman play on in the goal square to put them in front right on 3 quarter time summed it up.

 

Umpires sure followed Gil's and Eddie's orders in the last quarter.

Agree. Holman was a tool. 3 metres out !!! 

Pies win...

Strike 2.....

Hey watch out for the Suns in years to come. ??
Still over exaggerating their talent imo 

That 'superstar' Rankine is just a Kent Kingsley in disguise too

Edited by Stevienic23

Geez the Suns are a frustrating team to watch. They could have easily won that if they had more composure. A lot of dumb players too.

Holman again you [censored]

I'd love to check his bank statement after tonight's performance.

It would read something like this 

Miscellaneous payment  CR;  $50,000

Agree. Played a good first game. So over hyped. Then done zero since. Frustrating type who loves a trick shot but no pressure or hard running !!!

Harbrow and Holman right at the top of this list.

Well that was disappointing.

But not nearly as disappointing as us losing to Sydney.

Complain all you want about Holman, Harbrow, Swallow, Cox or the umpires, but it all shouldn't matter.

True dat ...

GC had chances but blew it. 

I hate the filth.


18 frees to 8 in Mudpies’ favour.  Similar disposal numbers.

That small crowd managed to influence them.

There were some inexcusable errors by the umpires, none of whom should get a final.

( but Margetts will, in Perth, and help his boys over the line.)

Think his point was more that if we didn’t [censored] up repeatedly losing to bottom teams then none of these results would be relevant.

We’ve done this to ourselves.

100%

I think it's fine for us to hope for results to fall our way (and of course seeing the filth miss is just an absolute bonus) but at the end of the day our club blew it with the opportunities laid out in front. 

 

So we now move to Friday night for the next instalment of a slow and agonising death........

  • NON-MFC: Round 11

    Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.

  • PREVIEW: Sydney

    The two teams competing at the MCG on Sunday afternoon have each traversed a long and arduous path since their previous encounter on a sweltering March evening in Sydney a season and a half ago. Both experienced periods of success at various times last year. The Demons ran out of steam in midseason while the Swans went on to narrowly miss the ultimate prize in the sport. Now, they find themselves outside of finals contention as the season approaches the halfway mark. The winner this week will remain in contact with the leading pack, while the loser may well find itself on a precipice, staring into the abyss. The current season has presented numerous challenges for most clubs, particularly those positioned in the middle tier. The Essendon experience in suffering a significant 91-point loss to the Bulldogs, just one week after defeating the Swans, may not be typical, but it illustrates the unpredictability of outcomes under the league’s present set up.

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
