Playing himself to a potentially new contract for next year.

Hopefully without it his mate Melksham.  If we need to keep playing hiM we are shot.  Laurie could not have done less.

How many more years on Ben Browns contract? 

Fair dinkum do we need to bite the bullet and bring in JVR?  Brown is absolutely awful, poor guy.

    Melksham doesn't ever expect to get the ball even he's right next to it. Any reason he was named instead of Dunstan. I thought that's why he was signed to the club to fill in for mids who weren't playing. Ffs

    2nd 

    ⭐️⭐️Kozzy goals and dancing shoes 

    👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻Viney Hibberd Langdon Sparrow 

    🤮donkeys. (Two certain goals fumbled) Frisch and the milkshake twice 

    🤮Trac missed twice and Fritsch 

    ?? Jackson - so much “potential” 

     

    This team last year was selfless.  Fritsch  is important but so is the team ethos.  Give him a weeks spell as an example.

    Weid or JVR would have been a better selection than Bedford.

    Or Chandler or Laurie  2 disposals 1 tackle we are a man down


    Bedford 2 disposals 

    Melksham 3 disposals.

    Someone please explain two things;

    1. Why was Bedford not dropped? Another week of absolutely zero influence.

    2. What the [censored] is Melkshams role? Dead set absolute witches cone out there with the constant fumbles. Maybe @bing181 can explain? You're big advocate for his selection.

    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

    Hooray!!! Somebody talking sense about BBB’s game. Thank you.

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

    Bedfords playing had less touches than Melksham. Kozzies been brilliant keeping us in it.

    Where so far off our best footy it’s not funny just need to hope we get over the line somehow. It really is hard to believe where reigning premiers and second on the ladder at the moment. 

    Fritta i would drop you if Tmac wasn't injured burnt another player in the goalsquare.

    He is doing some selfish things of late.

    Leaders need to step up

    Maxy having one of his frustrating games. Trac patchy. Viney not bad but has butchered 2 kicks under no pressure. Fritsch frustrating. May all over the shop

    Bad and all as we are Port are worse. We got to win this game because our run in doesn't get any easier

    Bedford is a ghost out there, unseen.

    Melksham is the worst selection choice of the year for all clubs across the globe.

    • 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.

      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.
