First time for being in Australia for the Olympics for a while.

I had forgotten how cringeworthingly Aussie centric the FTA commentary can be.

    Isaac Smith would have made a big difference for us this year. Oh well

    Smith turning us down was a bit of a disaster for us IMO. He’s exactly what we need. 25 touches and a goal a week on the non Langdon wing.

    How simple is it to be able to have an option to watch the game on TV/devices with the sounds of the game (crowd when available, and players), but no commentary?

    I’d pay $30 a month for that option. I love the atmosphere, and don’t need anything else.

    Geelong are a good discipline team. Them and Sydney are the benchmark in this aspect.

    Man it’s so hard watching Geelong. They starve the opposition and then counter. They are so constistent and disciplined. 

    clear flag fav imo. This will be 10 wins from the last 11 with Duncan and Cameron to come back in

    Up to the Giants to salvage the weekend somewhat, Netflix until then.

    You don’t want to play Essendon week 1 finals?

    Assuming we fall out of the Top 4, Essendon would be the side I’d most want to play against. More so than GWS.

    Nope, not at all interested in playing anyone that finishes 8th a month out from the finish. Certainly won’t be cheering them on the assumption we drop out from the top 4 just to play them. Finish 5th because you think they’re an easy kill, no thanks.

    We can be better than all of these teams, for longer, we just need to get our forward line sorted out and perhaps another outside runner (Bowey?)

  • Quote

    So Essendon will probably get 8th spot because the teams around them keep falling down. Hopefully the giants can produce a miracle and beat them

    just patiently waiting for essendon to win to put a nice little bow on this ****ty weekend.

    The 15 metre kick rule is so unfairly applied across the league. Some teams can kick it 7 metres, and some can’t kick it 25.

    It needs to be addressed in the off season.

    There seem to be times when the umpires just seem to think “that shouldn’t be a mark” and call “no 15” just on a whim.

    Just saw on the news Franklin elbowing an opponent with a wild backward swing - “may get a week if unlucky”.  
    Imagine if one of ours did that - “4-6 weeks”!

    Corruption reigns??

    • 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.
