Toughest possible run home. We never have any luck with the fixture.

    We had to play these teams at some point. 2/3 games at home is ok I would’ve thought?

    My first thought was what a load of bs - as we always seem to get the best teams (conferences or not) - but the only way we get to finals is for teams above us to lose, so may as well be us who beats them.

    If ladder positions don't change, and i reckon they won't, we'll have played all of the top 6 and only 3 from the bottom half.

    Two at Casey is good, get to go to the footy in Freo which will be nice.

    We're shown we can match the bets sides, if we kick straight!

    Without looking into it, at first glance looks like we have been shafted bad 

    Would of thought 2 against top teams and at least 1 against lower team not all 3 against top 3 sides

    3 of the top 4 come on afl what a joke

    None of those teams are unbeatable. If we are serious about wanting to be a top team, we need to play against and beat the best in the competition. Meandering half heartedly through games against the likes of Gold Coast and Richmond does nothing for us. 

    Time for our senior players to stand up and for Stinear to throw things around.

    Brutal draw. I suppose they decided that because we've played Richmond and Gold Coast we don't get the byes against Geelong and West Coast as well.

    Given that we have zero depth I reckon it's lights out unless we beat the Saints and win at least one of the others. North has a reasonably tough run too. Their game against Footscray could prove important. Given that the Dogs have the free win against Richmond in the last round we probably want them to win so we can concentrate on jumping the Roos into eighth.

    Bloody Carlton are 10 points up against Freo heading into the last quarter. If they see this game out they have games against the suns and GWS to come. You’d favor them to win those them which would leave them on 6 wins. They sneak ahead of us after again having a much easier fixture (we’ll have played 3 of non-finalist teams whereas they’ll have played 5).

    Come on Freo!

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • 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.
