Did anyone else notice that Brayshaw let this slip in the post match interview? Seems like its almost a done deal…

Yeah I did but thought it was just a slip up until the news today

    To be fair, we will comfortably account for the dogs if the current pattern continues.

    We are so bloody schizophrenic.

    More like bipolar, up and then down.

    Schizophrenia is living in delusional states, creating non realities. Which, is not true, we are a good side and have proven our credentials with some great wins.  We have not imagined them.

    Reality is, we are a hard side to beat.

    Though, our problems are in our head, we need mental strength and agility

    Well that sucks. I have been hanging to watch the dogs game, especially after missing the earlier game. We’ll still be lockdown next weekend I’d say

    PD's (personality disorders), are a degree of associated problems, we all exhibit some behaviour of each. So it comes down to how dysfunctional we are, not the behaviour.  

    I would suggest OCD (obsessive, compulsive disorder), is a more likely diagnosis within this threads topic and Demonlanders.  

    Look how we get thrown out by change to the schedule and our weekly rituals during the season for our march to the grail.

    Switching round 19 and 20 games still has a few border closure and exemption issues. 

    Just let us play GCS next week in Qld!!  If Brisb can come and go to Melb to play the Hawks next week then we can come and go to Qld to play GCS. 

    Have a horrible feeling the AFL is hell bent on us playing in Darwin.

    I don't get why we have to move games around? Just play them where they can be played, we will end up being screwed having to travel to Darwin then Perth in consecutive weeks ?

    I think we might be in for a beating, worse luck.

    I don’t understand this thinking. So if we played them in two weeks we could beat them but playing them next week means we lose? We aren’t carrying significant injuries. Nothing will be different next week to the week after, except for perhaps a small-ish crowd.

    Well, if they do play this week, and limit the crowd to 25,000 then 80% need to be Dees fans, as it is our home game!

    You'd hope that next season the mathematical genius who develops the AFL Fixture might let each team play each other once before any repeat games are scheduled.  That way, if the season needs to be shortened it can be done fairly.  I've never understood why we play some sides twice before we complete a match against all sides.

    They will tackle and hunt us like no tomorrow. 

    Our ball movement will be a thing of beauty.

    Our ability to get the ball will hurt anyone in the way.

    Fight, get it and control it.

    They will chase us all day.

    Did we have a VFL match this weekend?

    no... cancelled unfortunately

    Ironically Sydney and GWS seconds played yesterday and 3 from each team had to go around again today due to the covid exposures at the rugby.

    I believe there was a practice game with a few Victorian clubs and we were involved as well. Not sure who played.

    I just hope the boys come to Perf to play and smash the Eagles.

    My only game I can attend all year.

    I hope, however unlikely, that the AFL put some thought into our finishing with three away games in a row, with two of those on opposite sides of the country. I’m happy to play the teams, a rethink of the venues is warranted.

    I will eat my hat if we are allowed crowds at games in Victoria in the next 2-3 weeks. Given the spread at the MCG the argument to allow crowds becomes ever harder to make while we still have cases and while NSW is still a clusterfudge.

    • 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.

      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.
