Moving Baker forward is proving a smart move. Castagna unsighted the last two weeks

    I want the Dogs beaten so we can have a shot at top spot.

    Pretty straight forward I would’ve thought.

    On the other hand I don’t like seeing the Tiges win and the more games we put between ourselves and them the better I will feel. They’re not in form at the moment but they are liable to click and put a run of games together which could be enough to make Top 4. I’d prefer if they finished in the lower half of the 8. I'd prefer not to face them at all in September.

    What did you think of our 56K odd last week?

    Better than the 52,000 tonight.

    It’s Richmond’s home game and they have 100,000 members apparently.

    It’s a Friday night.

    Perfect weather in Melbourne all day.

    Playing against the undefeated Bulldogs.

    The tigers are getting a decent run from the umpires 

    Makes up for the first half, though I do hate when that happens.

    Very lenient on incorrect disposal tonight I've noticed.

    Do you mean when a play has or has not had prior opportunity.

    Remember, when a player has not had prior opportunity they only need to attempt to dispose of the ball.

    Remmeber, when a player has not had prior opportunity they only need to attempt to dispose of the ball.

    I'll take more notice, but instances that would have been a free last year or even last week seem, in my mind anyway, to be play on tonight.  Could be imagining things.

    • 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.
