Flip side of that is it gives them a bit of confidence before our game.
Also no way we take them lightly now considering Richmond gave us a good game last week. 

This — actually a bit concerned about this one

    Era over for Richmond. They need to go to the draft and trade table and begin again. Very successful era, though.

    I am one of the few people who actually like Gold Coast. I picked them to finish 8th (not looking good at this stage!)Ballard is becoming a player. 

    Maynard is a [censored]. Comes hurtling in to do what? Reminds me of Tommy Bugg - all front no brains.

    Crows kicking 3-10 is a poor return, and the Pies will not stop coming.

    Maynard such a faux tough guy. Looks like a crack dealer.  

    Dealer? That’s being generous. Looks more like the addict with a rotted brain needing us fix.

    100% fake tough guy. Nothing surer than Maynard coming in and attacking an unsuspecting opponent.

    I am going to watch the rest of crows and filth, enjoy a beer and have a great big LMFAO at richmond. We will now probably hear a big whinge from Hardwick about Marvel.

    Dwayne Russell said this week he won’t rule out Richmond until they need to win 10 of the remaining 9 games to make the finals.  He can be quite nauseating at times.

    I'm sorry what was that about Essendon's new look defence?

    Zerk-Thatcher on Hawkins was a disaster.

    Agree they are done for a few years (nothing wrong with that, they won 3 flags and arguably their best year they didn’t win it).

    Before we make our own descent, I’d like to jag one more at the G 🙏

    For a few years before Tassie come in and get every draft concession under the sun.

    They are done for a decade.

    Collingwood’s belief in desperation blended with outright attacking speed is phenomenal. It’s just frightening for opposing teams when they bring it, and the belief gets stronger. I hate to say it, really HATE it, but they are irresistible at their best.

    Was it a bit over the top today that geelong and Essendon ran through a joint banner for country game?

    Seriously? Absolutely over the top. May as well have called it the bogan banner

    Crows goal kicking is dreadful. They've kept the pies in this because of it. they'll be sorry when the pies run over the top of them in the last.

    I think I've realised that my loathing of Collingwood is almost as high as my love for the Dees. I was feeling sick with anxiety watching the game because I want them to lose so bad. I turned it off because I don't need that on a Sunday night :D

    Crows should be at least 10.9.

    They just traded the farm for Taranto and Hopper thinking they were still in premiership contention. They traded two first rounders, a second rounder and a future first! By my calculations they’re currently set to hand GWS pick 3 and won’t have a first round pick themselves until 2025 draft!

    Era is over and they’re going to languish down the bottom longer than usual because they got no draft capital now and the new Tassie team will get concessions in a few years when they finally get picks again. It’s going to be an ugly time for Richmond. They did get to enjoy three flags though so big success.

    Almost every player disputing decisions with the ump with hands up

    no dissent

    can we try to decide what’s allowed?

    Yet they can be outplayed for significant periods of matches by average to good sides. It’s odd. Crows kick straight and the Pies would be almost out of the match.

    • 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.
