    No way! Dogs got lucky tonight imo. Outta these two, Port are the team to watch. They should’ve won this.

    Teams with a game in hand should always be ahead of teams on the same points but with no game in hand regardless of percentage imo.

    Dogs midfield is a class above the competition. Their backline is very suspect. Their forwardline is meh although they do have Josh “kicks goals against Melbourne specialist” Bruce. 
    Port were disappointing for mine. Dogs were very good. Their midfield is next level. 
     

    Edit: didn’t watch the Richmond GWS game. But given the injuries to Richmond it seems like GWS blew a good chance. Or did they choke under the pressure?

    The Powa are an extremely overrated team who got lucky with the shortened version of the game last year.

    Couple that with the gifted games played at home and on the Gold Coast where they adapted and play very well.

    No improvement whatsoever at all this year, extremely gettable in their backhalf.

    I reckon they are very beatable.

    Libba is the one you need to close down. As far as first dibs midfielders go, he is brilliant. On the outside the Bont and Caleb Daniel are very good also. While their midfield probably bats deeper, our back and forward lines are superior at the moment. Should be a fascinating clash in a couple of weeks time.

    One of the things I give the coaches credit for this season is planning for opposition, no one has really got off the leash, and we gave Martin his first proper bath. Libba is awesome, have real respect for him, and I feel we will have a plan here.

    Dogs openly throw the ball and the umpires never call it. how much does one have to spend to get that kind of treatment from the umpires?

    Button it right now big fella, or I'll have Gordon Legal send you a letter

    Their midfield is Rolls Royce but we have them covered in every other department. Our defense and pressure game will take care of the doggies. No worries.

    I’ve asked this before but how did the Swans give Aliir away for free?! He is a very good player. 

    Salary cap squeeze i believe.

    He's been a great pick-up for Port

    If I had to choose I think I’d give ed his collywobbles gig back so i didn’t have to hear him comment...it is unbearable 

    The quality of commentating in general is of a low standard. I listen to most games with the mute button engaged.

    • 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.
