Some very soft frees being paid

Umpires have gifted Carltank 4 goals but this looks like Dees in 1971

    There's going to be a lot of 50m penalties if thats the threshold

    That’s the rules

    Learn and stop doing it. It’s obvious they’re hot so why keep talking? 
     

    The issue is we are getting smashed in the middle.

    4 x 50m penalties as we slip to 29 points behind.
    How much of a lead are we giving them?

    The frees were there: it is more our arrogance and I’ll discipline l reckon. I hope it is not indicative of the rest of the year…

    Smith running into Lever is exactly why I cannot with him.

    It is ridiculously hot in here. 


    Finally Fritta hits the scoreboard.
    There's 9 minutes left in 2Q, so that's about 26-27 goals.

    Joel Smith has talent and a potential role but it’s got to be being used in space and on smaller opponents. He has elite athleticism and movement.

    He doesn’t have any idea how to use his body to shift bigger forwards who can out reach him.

    As a 7th defender who does a bit of everything he’s interesting. As a full back he’s hopeless 

    Hate the high Viney tackle ! the pinnacle of [censored] umpiring player dives forward into what can u do? It’s not dangerous! Yet they let it go when he got ridden in the back in the first 😡 

     

    We are thinking like Hollywood Millionares pity we are playing like Paupers

    • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      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.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      The Gold Coast Suns find themselves outside of the top eight for the first time since Round 1 with pressure is mounting on the entire organisation. Their coach Damien Hardwick expressed his frustration at his team’s condition last week by making a middle-finger gesture on television that earned him a fine for his troubles. He showed his desperation by claiming that Fox should pick up the tab.  There’s little doubt the Suns have shown improvement in 2025, and their position on the ladder is influenced to some extent by having played fewer games than their rivals for a playoff role at the end of the season, courtesy of the disruption caused by Cyclone Alfred in March.  However, they are following the same trajectory that hindered the club in past years whenever they appeared to be nearing their potential. As a consequence, that Hardwick gesture should be considered as more than a mere behavioral lapse. It’s a distress signal that does not bode well for the Queenslanders. While the Suns are eager to remain in contention with the top eight, Melbourne faces its own crisis, which is similarly deep-seated but in a much different way. After recovering from a disappointing start to the season and nearing a return to respectability among its peer clubs, the Demons have experienced a decline in status, driven by the fact that while their form has been reasonable (see their performance against the ladder leader in the Kings Birthday match), their conversion in front of goal is poor enough to rank last in the competition. Furthermore, their opponents find them exceptionally easy to score against. As a result, they have effectively eliminated themselves from the finals race and are again positioned to finish in the bottom half of the ladder.
