I turned it off. It’s been a hard enough day and I deserve better than watching Freo attempt to play football and Geelong raising their percentage. 

 

Freo are like Melbourne one year post Neeld.

Fremantle skills are dreadful. Infact diabolical.

 

I've seen morris dancers look more threatening than Fremantle. Deary me. 


I noticed that Geelong has a small "1859" on the back of their jumper at the top (the GPS pocket).

I don't think we have any reference to 1858 on ours, would be good as love the claim of being the oldest football club. Poor old Geelong forever have to be the "second oldest" muhahaha

 

Fire up Freo. We need to hold out percentage buffer over Geelong to ensure top 2 finish!

Need some junk time Fremantle goals here.

Gap right now has been shortened to 1.2%. Geelong roughly need to outscore Fremantle by 14 points to pass us on percentage tonight.


Freo??! How did they beat us last year. Tough in the contest. 
Freo??! v cats tonight. Freo are marshmallows. 
Cats building percentage and looking very dangerous.  

The Shockers should just Pack it in. 
A failed experiment that never threatened to do anything 

How embarrassing are Freo? No forward structure, no real forward target all night, even when Lobb was on the ground.

Geelong's pressure has been good, but their ball use and decision making hasn't been remarkable. Freo are just a rabble.

Whatley really whacked them on 360 this week and rightly so. All they beat the last 4 weeks were Hawthorn, Carlton and Collingwood. 

And now they've given Geelong a huge percentage boost. We must pummel Hawthorn on Saturday.

And there goes our percentage buffer. Geelong now ahead of us on percentage. Thanks Freo!


Geelong doing what they do best. Beat up on weak sides. 

Well few things are more annoying than seeing Geelong on top of the ladder. But destiny, my good friends, remains in our hands in 2021. Hope we really turn it on against the Hawks.

Really?

That could equally describe us last 15 years. We were irrelevant for at least a decade. Glass houses

How many GFs have we played in the last 15 years? How many  brownlows? AAs? Any other measure?

Be respectful of our failures as much as other club's failures. Show humility, our current success could easily fade.

Why should we respect other clubs failure? Why show humility? ha ! weve been the butt end of everyone elses jokes for the last 2 decades....like you say it might not last ....so let ppl have a bit of fun with it huh.. after so much failure, nice to see some posters have a bit of a laugh for once.

Abysmal performance by Freo.

So annoying that they lost by so much that Jee-long gained heaps of percentage and have overtaken us.

Freo were putrid. they deserve nothing but scorn after a pathetic performance like that (which has cost us top spot). Not sure why we should be "respecting their failure" just cause we're been rubbish ourselves in the not too distant past

Percentage could be the difference between a home or inter-state qualifying final. We have to put our foot on the Hawks throat tomorrow. I know its not our style, and we shouldn't take the Hawks lightly, but we need to show the same ruthlessness as Geelong and really put a team to the sword

And seeing the cats on top of the ladder has ruined the start to my day

  • 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.
