It’s an absolute joy watching this team at the moment. Observing from ground level our running capacity is just incredible and I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything like it before to be  honest.

    Trent Rivers is clearly not 100% fit but is still so very very good.

    So important to this team at 20 years of age.

    Big win, and yet we still look like we are in 2nd or third gear haha - lots of time to kick into gear and we get to launch from 5-0. 

    Great to see Kossie get in the game, too.

    Good times!

    What a great team game. So many contributors. 

    As much as I love Benny Brown, I don't think you can drop either of TMac or Weid - both contributed really well.

    Well done to Weed. Put himself in the contest and worked up the ground when it mattered.

    Some posts a bit over top, remember every team has players down pecking order.

    Weid copped it before finishing better, but fact is 3 of our goals up to half way through third quarter came after spillages from marking contests that he competed in….

     

    Also delivery ordinary to tall forwards in the second, but our tall forwards copped it…. Go figure.

    Love this team, they are just amazing

    This has gotta be an easy team to coach right now, running hard to the end always doing the team things.

    Unnecessarily over the top and absolutely correct.

    GWS aren’t a team, they are a soulless franchise. Inept club, with a poor coach, and a poor culture (thanks for Choco Williams). same can be said for GC

    The moment Tassie are announced as having a team, they will instantly have more significance than GWS and Gold Coast combined, probably with twice as many legitimate supporters too.

    The Viney crumb goal in the third should have been a Weid grab from 25 out. He got the perfect block on his opponent from Sparrow and went in to the space, but the kick from TMac went across him. Weid did a lot of unrewarded work tonight I thought. 

    Side note, I’m really liking the wide camera angles we’re getting from the broadcasters this year. You can actually see what’s going on.

    All teams bar Gold Coast were top eight last year incredibly.

    Great point and it bodes well for us.

    • 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.
