It's hard to find players to give votes to after that performance, but I'm surprised by the love for Hunter. I thought he had a stinker. He covered some ground but, to me at least, it seemed every disposal was either a turnover or he sold his teammates into trouble.

    Was so ... 6 major turn-overs delivering the ball. Perhaps more, as I was not really counting but recalling, after the game.

    We were outworked, outmarked and outplayed by a team that had our measure and adapted to the conditions much better from the first bounce. Draper is going to be a nightmare when he really gets going.!!

    Viney was dreadful... Back to Viney of old!

    I'm surprised to see how many people have lauded Viney's game. I thought he was part of the problem with his poor delivery. And the idea that he should get votes because of his effort astounds me. If that's how we award votes, Walking Civil War should get 6 every week. Oliver and Petracca were streets ahead of everybody else.

    From the director’s chair; 

    Home and away is starting to look like a Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde horror movie. Selections for Anzac eve will reflect Hammer Films Productions, after a no show matinee last Saturday afternoon. Be prepared for some old fashioned blood letting on the casting couch.

    Adjudication;

    Dons got some sure goals from the goal square, some justified other soft as Gil’s over buttered cold toast on Sunday morning .

    Broadcasters;

    Propaganda courtesy of the Scott brothers. Sticky fingers in everything. Nauseating.

    • 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.
