A better spreadsheet of the Brisbane scores to make top 4.

There is no need for that spread sheet @Demonland, the only thing that will be getting spread this arvo are the cheeks of West Coast's collective butts.

    First of all let's just win tonight then we'll start talking.

    Outside of the MCG and Marvel where in Australia have the Dees played there best Football and their record has stood up in the past 5 years?

    Answer: Adelaide Oval its a no brainer, logistically its a 1 hour flight, the players love the ground.

    What more is there to say.

    You live there so you can get along to support the team. And bring along as many crows fans as you can muster (if we are playing Port)

    The Blues would have to be as kind in their farewell of Teague as they were in his first game as coach. Can’t see it happening because he’s lost the players.

    Brett Ratten the only half decent coach at Carlton in the past two decades was sacked by the club. The other half dozen coaches were sacked by the players. Expect a 100 points loss to farewell Teague.

    probably likely......

    .....but, sometimes these situations go the other way

    We farewelled Roos with a 100 point loss. Shameful effort from our players that day

    Not sure of the logic here. 

    If we win tonight, we can still end up in Adelaide for the prelim - they win their first final, we lose ours. Puts us in their half of the draw. 

    Sorry your right, I just felt this was the most unlikely scenario.  They would need to beat the Cats in week 1. If not then they will never have a choice of ground for the Prelim. Anyone playing them from the Week 1 winners will opt for Gabba or Optus I would have thought.

    I just want what's best for the footy club home state aside.

    I always had a soft spot for Frosty with his effort and aggression (and still do) but christ im happy with May/Lever/Petty down back and not stressing seeing him near the ball.

    He did everything right in the last contest getting in front to take a game winning intercept mark only for him to fumble it and his man kicks the game drawing goal.

    Bachar Houli has been the only likeable bloke on that team. And a very good player as well.

    Brisbane have kicked 40 goals the last 2 weeks. Think I’d rather play Port

    Who have they played! Pies and Dockers...not what you would say are great defensive teams with lots of talent on song.

    What a fix up that was at the MCG.

    kind of fitting and sums up 2021 with that draw. Deep down Clarko would not be happy with his team giving up the last 5 goals.

    Looks like the Eagles can be bothered today. Lions will have to work hard to get the percentage they need

    • 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.
