    Melksham has been an inspired inclusion! When do we sub Bedford in?

    We are desperate for a forward. Weed has to go. If he can’t get a game in this forward line then it’s over.

    Would love to ask Goody on what basis he picks a player like Melksham over players who have actually pressed their cases in the VFL. Like Chandler? 

    WTF. 

    I cannot understand.

    Port's pressure is good. Causing us to panic and miss handballs and simple kicks

    Tracc working his way into the game now. Good quarter by him

    GET DUNSTAN ON

    Bedford is already on, think you mean Dunstan


    We look crap, the skill errors suck. This is typically the kind of game we lose, I want to just get the win despite playing crap because we look crap.

    Melksham…really mate…you are done! Hang ‘em up

    He did have that great chase down tackle in the 1st, but otherwise! surely we have better options to come in. Better ti bring in a young player (Watch he'll have a blinder after 1/2 time :). )

    Ben Brown has taken 4-5 contested marks. I can't remember if he has been outmarked. The one time he gets separation we kick the ball a mile over his head. We have a lot bigger problems today than Ben Brown

    • 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.
