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?

    Damn shame.

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

    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.

    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

    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.

    GC had chances but blew it.

    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.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
