    I have no idea why anyone still has MFCSS. It died for me after the Richmond game last year.

    Sydney game for me. Hardest fought win I think I've ever seen from Melbourne. Since then even with our loses I've not worried.

    I reckon Tracc will be a late withdrawal Dunstan in

    Trac looks ok. No bandage on either knee. May warming up also

    Would have preferred Dunstan as medi Sub

    I’m confused is Trac playing or not ?

    No late changes, so he's playing.

    Don't reckon the lack of tape is evidence he's 100% though. It miraculously disappeared the week after everyone started asking about it. Definitely been playing sore lately.

    I don't even feel nervous before games anymore. 

    Gee what a shock Bedford sub

    Wonder what the crowd will be

    Oi, I thought you were meant to stay on the fence

    As the Good Friday Appeal is in the rear view mirror, perhaps this type of motivation could have been deployed to put the lingering MFCSS on here to rest?

    and it’s such a comfort to know that the umpires will adjudicate with impartiality and  consistency 

     

     

    Is that a new style of umpiring the AFL is trialling this round ????

    Wonderful !!

    Looks a terrible crowd on the TV

    Most of Melbourne are in bright


    Remember I use to write in these threads that I thought we might be a chance of winning today.  Seems surreal, that now the expectation is winning and it's more a case of when that first upset loss might come against us.  Not totally confident that we're in smashing form right now, but not sure I see this as a big danger game either.

    I’m still getting used to making my way to the footy from my new place and I reckon I’ll miss most of the first quarter. 

    So if we’re up by a mile when I get there you can thank me

    • 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.

    • 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.
