    Did I miss some injury in the dying minutes?

    Radio 1116 said we had an injury sub used

    For a team renowned for pressure, the Doggies weren't able to handle it, were they? So proud of the boys tonight. Just shows the dogs have been beating up on lesser clubs. Questions were being asked of us, and we answered. I wonder what excuse will be made for their loss? Did we not play a team in form? At their home?

    Who let the dogs out?

    We did. They weren't behaving. We gave them a smack on the snout, opened the gate and let them out.

    Ahhh Goodwin and his belief of winning from the contest out is the game style that only stacks up in finals...

    Plan A.

    Shellacking the Tigers then thumping the Dogs!

    Does that make us giant-killers? 

    No. 

    IT MAKES US GIANTS!

    Fantastic team effort. Tomlinson was a big loss and good to see the trust in Petty by the backs and some nice synergy building.

    Our usual suspects were at it again but massive games by Gus, Harmes, ANB and Rivers. Really liked their games.

    JB my son use your imagination, they are paying tribute to the fans who WOULD be in the stands in pretty much the only way you can do it in a time like this.

    They don't pressure anybody really. They just overpower mistakes.

    And we make very few mistakes on average

    We controlled the game with no real standout single player. Every player contributed. Our team defence was a thing of beauty. 

    We are the hunted now. Bring it on!

    Can he play next week?

    Why not? You only miss a week if you’re concussed. He’s clearly not.

    Brayshaw had a cracker of a game. Best game of the season imo.

    Only one goal between Pickett, ANB and Spargo but all were superb tonight.

    Immense pressure from start to finish.

    • 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.

      With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
