They’re getting on top in clearances early. Which we all know means danger for us.

That was a mark to Lever.

Two free kicks missed to us before the GWS goal.

James Brayshaw talking about how Mumford likes to 'target midfielders', as if he was praising him for the dog act.

Poor form.

Can't believe him and Richo were waxing lyrical about how he bashed Oliver like it was a great thing for football. Stumpheads.

    How about a mark ffs

    was a free kick to Lever all the way.... and Fritta held off the ball.  Other teams would've got one of those at least but i guess we are playing the AFL's No.1 love child

    Lever - Mark. Fritsch held. Oliver’s head removed? Good footy according to these knobs on the commentary. I thought the head was sacrosanct?!!

     

    He's got no idea where the goals are, Kozzie.

    Kozzie needs to kick more goals. I’m positive it come. Just being impatient. The fact he is getting opportunities so early in his careers bodes well for his and our futures

    He is SO DAMN CLOSE to ripping a game apart.  

    He just needs to kick those goals and he'll be right.

    That's the bit that hangs over this game.  I mean, it's great to see us playing well, but why can't we do this in the previous two games?  In both we came out listless and uninspired.  Tonight we look like a Top 8 team.  It's frustrating to say the least.

    Very true! It's almost worse to see this, as bad as it sounds? Like, it's abundantly clear the we can do this, so why not before, and why not consistently?

    I don't know how my health insurance premiums aren't sky high being a Demon...

    • 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.
