    It's a mystery to me why we make poor teams look good. We'll bank the win i'm sure but we should be better than this.

    Weve been doing it for 10 years +

    Love JV but I swear he hardly ever looks up when he kicks. The head is always down. Tough to hit targets when you’re not lifting your eyes.

    You can also put your house on him getting caught holding the ball at least once a game. Usually more. Awareness is shizen.

    That said I’m happy he’s getting his hands on the pill. His second half will be better.

    Awful quarter, so many players not contributing and seriously our goal kicking is dreadful.

    Only in respect to pressure. Their skill game is horrible, we’re just letting them scrap it away from contests. And as usual, we’ve given them a healthy sniff. We just hate to dominate….

    Disappointing. 

    It’s rare that we give up chains of goals, but we did.

    We need to make a statement in the 3rd quarter.

    3rd AND 4th please … right up to the final siren.

    Great defensive, backs to the wall stuff by us in that last 20 minutes, I thought there, except we are on top, we aren’t playing the Bulldogs, we are playing the likely wooden spooners FFS! WTF was that about?

    I’m a Viney fan, but FMD his disposal has been shocking. Two entries into forward 50 straight at a hawks player. 

    Well here is an idea for lazy Melbourne forwards when Viney has it, get in front, you know it will fall short.

    players getting ahead of themselves and not respecting the opposition and just how quickly teams can score. very typical melbourne.

    Sloppy

    Cocky

    And smashed at clearances.

    What is up with us? Freo mauled these guys last week. FREO! 

    We'll win this, but geez these BS halves give every other team in the comp a look into how to beat us, and until we stamp our authority in these games, teams will always turn up knowing they're a chance against us!

    Lol Viney tagging Mitchell to 20 touches at half time. FMD. 
    Time to get serious. You either want to stamp your authority on this competition or you want to continue to be untrustworthy. 

    Viney is a liability. 

    Midfield mix was well balanced when he was not playing and Harmes was the tagged.

    To think we have 5 years of Viney rubbish..

    • 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.
