Nearly 100 possessions between Oliver, Petracca and Salem.

Hardly a surprise we dominated (minus in front of goal)

 

We've got to take our chances going forward. We weren't perfect, but the scoreline flattered the Saints. But wth half a forward line, and now 2-0 it's a great outcome. Can't ask for more than that, we can only get better from here!

Man I love beating the Saints!

Oh and go Kossie! ELECTRIC!

We played bloody well... except we couldn’t nail goals. If we did, it would have been a thrashing.

Nice to see our midfield back dominating. Backline is still a thing of beauty. Tomlinson was just wonderful. 
 

If we can keep scraping out wins until we get Brown on the field... look out! 

Or hold marks.


Guess who's back, back again The Dees are back tell a friend.

T-shirt Tommy and Tommo take a bow.

Good to get the win. 19 behinds is deplorable though, and letting Howard just amble back and take intercept marks is poor form. We need a forward line. Good to see Petracca lower his eyes inside 50 at times, hopefully some of the others saw that and realise that it can be done. Its basic football and we are beyond pathetic at delivering inside 50. Good signs from a lot of players (mostly those not in the forward line). Majority team effort.

[censored] Yea!!!!! Always good to knock off a side that rate themselves way too much.

Ugly footy at times and bad in front of goal, but went three goals down and came back as well as holding off a couple of Saints charges.  Have grown as a group, in past years were out of the contest by 3/4 time.

Lever had a Stinker ?  How many dropped marks?

At least 2 goals given away to drops 

Well I thought we would be out paced and out coached.

I am glad to admit I was wrong. 

Well done MFC. 


I’m within a bees [censored] of being banned form the Medallion Club. 
 

Go you good things.

We obliterated them in every single way except for the score, we flattered them massively with our poor kicking for goal. It will cost us games if it doesn’t get fixed, once against Freo for first game back you can forgive, second time in a row starts to build a pattern. 


Scrappy win, not complaining, convert a third of our missed shots and its a 40-50 point win.

End of mini rant go and get plastered.

Go you mighty F'n Dees???

Played tough when we needed, and the skills in the first half were excellent but for goal kicking. Only fell off when the pressure dropped... 

Good win with plenty to work on. I’ll take it.

 

Only watched 2nd half and we put together some really positive chains of ball movement. Skills let us down a fair bit though (dropped about 5 sitter marks, kicking was poor as well), topped with some bad finishing and it took a bit of shine off a really good win. Should have been 40+. Kozzy looking really special in the middle. 


Go Dees.

Awesome win. Saints are a good team and Pickett one day will take a screamer. It's a good start & just builds confidence.

Bring on the giants next week.

  • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

    What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

  • 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.
