    Damn. 2nd on the ladder.

    Second is just as good as first.

    Top 2 gets us MCG finals the entire finals series if we win week 1. And our MCG form has been tremendous so far.

    Collingwood are like cockroaches. You can't kill them.

    Those misses have bitten Adelaide badly and admittedly I only watched the last 10 minutes but Adelaide played that badly. 

    When they were a point up they couldn't waste time by chipping it around because Collingwood wouldn't let them but kicking it near the boundary wasn't going to work.

    Now they're back on top. Yuck

    I’ve been watching footy all my 5 decades, and this is the best last quarter team I’ve ever seen. By a galaxy. They are also currently the best team in the AFL, it’s unarguable. And I hate it.

    Crows deserved to lose. Umps did their best for them. Atrocious goal kicking and crumbled in the last quarter. Take nothing away from the pies but that was an embarrassing defeat for the Crows.

    It's another great comeback but I'm not sure why it's so surprising. 7 goals 16 doesn't win too many footy games. It was really a detrimental lead.

    They might be but they’re certainly beatable. 
    We are also currently 7-0 in fourth quarters.

    Should have put the game away in the first qrt. Bigger ..experienced players were better in the wet . Adelaide is def a team on the up & let’s see how the Pies go for a long season playing at this level. The one quantity you can’t fault the Pies for & I have to acknowledge is they have always fought to the bitter end & they have enormous belief in each other. They also have a team with a lot of very experienced players ,

    The first thing they need to do is look in the mirror. That was a pathetic lack of execution. Not quite the mature threat that people have been talking about, not yet anyway.

    Great win, but geez Maynard’s is an average person 

    So are half of his teammates. A side full of thugs and criminals, and Moore/Pendles.

    Bugger it. Thought short break would have cost the pies in the last. Crows should have been out of sight before then. Adelaide were poor in the last. 
    Pies deserve to be top but they are beatable

    They always seem to have more run in their legs in the last quarter. Same as last year.

    And they've always got a free man in the right position (in this case through the middle) when they really really need it.

    Of course, everyone’s beatable, they’re just the hardest to beat. If it stays that way through September, the flag is theirs.

    • 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.
