    I’m nervous

    Poor form, fly in fly out, the Suns showing some ticker recently. It will not be easy

    But if we kick 12 goals i think we’ll win. Step forward BB

    And I hope as many of our Queensland based brethren as possible can get along to the game to support the boys, and fingers crossed enjoy a Win

    Big game in the context of our season. The sun's list is full of talent and will certainly take it up to us. Can easily see this game being close for 3 qtrs until we break away to win by 4 goals in the last. 


    Looking forward to seeing Jake Bowey out there. They say a first-gamer always perks a team up, so hope that's the case.

    This will say a lot.

    The cards are being stacked against us for sure, but good teams overcome adversity. 

    I’d say 2 out of 4 wins will see us in the top 4. Let’s make a start on that equation today.

    Demons by 8 points.

     

    Going to be a slog. The travel up on game day is one factor. Remember Maxy Gawn on an RSN interview said he personally struggled with this.

    Huge must win game.

     

    Is it going to be clear? When was the last time we played on a nice clear day and let our skills shine? (Pardon the pun)

    The better side wins today, r points and move on. Let's start building towards a finals campaign. Gawn full time ruck, Trac and Clarry I'm the middle, Gus back tia wing, pork ribs on the smoker... Back to normal you know?

    Oh to be able to kick 18.4 like the  Blues did last night! That’d be awesome. Provided the Suns kick 18.3 or less, that is. 
    Them kicking 3.18 would be even better!

    Forgot to wish ill on the Suns.

    Not sure what’s wrong with me but I feel strangely confident we will win and win convincingly.

    If Carlton can kick 18 what does that tell you?

    Managed to snag one of the few tables at The Rose to watch this one. Don’t know how they’re going to accommodate so many overlapping games to be honest. Like everyone else I have no idea which version of Melbourne  will show up today but I’d feel sick to my stomach if we throw away another opportunity.

    Good kicking is good football


    Best thing for a 'unified' team that has looked anything but for a month is a road trip.

    This part of the season could potentially end up a blessing, but it's Melbourne so who knows.

    Miracles can happen!

    A magnificent morning on the Gold Coast. Bone dry and not a cloud in the sky.  Very suitable for tall, marking forwards and very quick smalls to impact the scoreboard.

    Thank God Rankine is out or we could slot him in for 6!

    I think we would need to win 3 to finish top 4. Win 2 and I have us finishing 5th or even 6th

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
