Yes I know, they are struggling against a side with 15 out

It would indeed be a disgrace to lose this game. But we lost to Adelaide and Collingwood last year.

You can't build a forward line around Chol and Casboult. They are terrible.

Not sure they planned on King doing his ACL. But yes their back up talls are borderline AFL quality. 
Outside of Miller and Rowell they aren’t much chop, which is confusing because they’ve had 198 first round draft picks.

Of course they'll lose.

Fair enough unexpected losses will happen I agree, but just about every player on our list would have to catch covid at once to lose to the rabble I’m watching at the moment!

This is bang bang bang but neither team has a sweeper right now!

Thought this an hour ago, but the only thing that would prevent Gold Coast from winning this match was their kicking for goal. Should have been 20 points up halfway through the third.

NicNac is Benjamin Buttoning the ruck position, he’s gone from the most exiting with his athleticism to turn back the clock to the 80s and 90s plodders who had lots of ruck taps and sweet f all else.

Have enjoyed Powell's work (no.27) tonight for the Gold Coast. Strong mark and good foot skills.


Come on Gold Coast. You can do it! You can beat West Coast thirds. I believe in you!

No ... it was Jack Fitzpatrick.

Suns should hold from here at our 2nd home.


It's an absolute travesty there aren't 60,000 WC fans inside Optus to witness this.

Ah, must've tried too hard to forget about it over the years. 

Last leg of my multi FINALLY got up.
 

Thanks Suns for making me have kittens all game


Great finish by Gold Coast. Eagles clearly ran out of legs but GC played well. 

Good to see Matt Rowell back in action. Touk Miller is a star.

Suns look out on their feet. 
playing in mid twenties heat away from home off a 6 day break, we have a major advantage next Sat

We are also a better team which is another major advantage

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.
