for me it was Gawn / Langdon / Pickett... Kossie's goals kept us in it.

Once again, we should have won by a lot more. But again I'll take it.

 We'll need to be a hell of a lot cleaner at the G next week,..and if we win that?   I WILL BELIEVE  ❤️ ?

Hunt ?

    We left 50pt on the table, but seriously no one was bad, occasional errors by a very disciplined and well drilled team. ANB and lesser lights did many good things.

    Every game is tough and you bank your wins, but do we always have to win ugly.

    Many positives but really happy with Jackson. Also Hunt went to another level and much better from Gus. 
    T Mac looked a broken man at games end.

    It was tough but a win.

    Maxi after the game hahaha “ekelon” instead of echelon. “We’re in the top ekelon...”

    Agreed. But the way I see it, a tough game that results in a 34 point win is fairly impressive whichever way you look at it.

    You take an interstate win any day of the week, regardless of the oppos injuries.

    After Nev retires im also going to be happy to have Kossie as my new fave Dee.

    Thats a replay i can watch.

    Going ok 

    I think we're getting a picture that our opponents from the first 3 may not be finals contenders. But 3-0 = happy days.  We are in the picture and yet to hit our strides. A key fwd or 2 back in the line up and keep playing how we are and lookout. This year could go places

    Wins are wins. Tough Oppo coming up now though

    Yep. We have hit some teams at good times. 

    Brayshaw, Viney, Oliver and Kossie all with problematic preseasons. We have been able to get them through the first few games and get a bit of fitness into them. Will be a real test next week.

    I think we are much better this year. The balance of players is better at the foot of the ball. We’ve got some X factor in Kozzie and Trac, some in and under with Oliver and Viney, some outside pace with Hunt and Langdon, and Salem behind the ball with impeccable foot skills. It doesn’t have to be 100% manic anymore. It feels much more composed and controlled.

    I also think our back line has given us the confidence to maintain our shape around the ball more, even if we lose a few contests in a row. There’s more trust.

    Nobody will talk about Jackson given Kosi's genius, but seriously how good is he? Some of his pickups were akin to Pendlebury in his prime not a ruckman in his second year. Going to be very very good and allows us to use Gawn as we please.

    Wow. You are a sad individual.

    Sad?....more like realistic. Have you been following this team for long? After what transpired tonight the players would of been better off not singing the song and discussed what could of quite easily been a loss. We got lucky with so many injuries to the Giants, still some repetitive areas of concern for us at the moment. It’s a long season, they’ll be plenty of other opportunities to sing the song. As I said, many won’t agree.

    • 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.

      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.
