This one hurt. A game at the MCG where things went pear shaped for one of the few occasions in 2021.

The main reason we lost to them last year was we had heavy legs due to training loads and the brilliance of Toby Greene.

No Toby Greene this time. Another regulation 4-5 goal win coming up

We missed plenty of opportunities to win this one in the last quarter. Had plenty of the ball but didn't execute well. 

We'd only lose one more game for the year after that one too  

 

Agree, no Toby Greene, no training loads, and no Mummy who definitely made Giants walk taller!

Be interesting to see Pruess against Max, followed by Jackson!

Expecting a solid 5 goal win - even though would love to see a big win, but hard to argue with Demon game philosophy after last years ultimate success!

Go Demons!

Pruess should be suspended  for this match

It was a hard game to sit through we were sitting on the wrong wing and didn’t get to see much action up close. We were lethargic and made a lot of errors whereas they made every opportunity stick. Looking forward to a good win and seeing Max show Preuss who’s the boss.

Pruess won’t be lining up from the looks of things 

 

As others have said a very frustrating game we had plenty of chances to win but did look tired…should get them this time 


They have a very, very good midfield, and then no other real strengths. Some individual players have real skill but our defence mindset should cover them.

Crowd was 16963 guessing we will beat that this time.

Was limited due to Covid ! 20,000 I think

You are correct. The result is left resting with the umpires; their obvious preference(s) lie time and again with GWS.

MRP finding 

Braydon Preuss, GWS GIANTS, has been charged with Striking David Mundy, Fremantle, during the third quarter of the Round Four match between Fremantle and the GWS GIANTS played at Optus Stadium on Saturday April 9, 2022.

In summary, he can accept a one-match sanction with an early plea.

Based on the available evidence, the incident was assessed as Intentional Conduct, Low Impact, High Contact.

The incident was classified as a one-match sanction as a first offence. The player can accept a one-match sanction with an early plea.

What a day this was, thought we might have blown our top 4 chance and it also turned out to be the last time we could go to the G that year. What happened next speaks for itself and it's time to atone for it this Sat.

When going through the replays one by one during the off season I thought that last quarter was one of our best until that time.

We didn't score but we did everything else extremely well

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are back at the MCG and have a massive challenge ahead of them as they take on Premiership contender the Gold Coast Suns. What do you want to see from the Dees today?

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
