That was easy. North have a long hard road to travel.

everyone performed but I’m not convinced Schache is the answer. Let’s see how he goes against the suns.

    I can’t be bothered going to find the thread but Chandlermodium stocks must be about equal with Apple’s after that.

    Goodwin was so happy he high fived his security guards

    He is soooo cuddly. I just saw the president give him a big smooch at the end of the team song.

    Disgusting 😁

    Just need the antidote for the woman behind me to shut up because we didn't win by 100 points.

    The only downside was the missed 100.

    Go Dees!

    At least we cracked the ton. 
     

    For a team coming off 5 days, with a trip up to GC, the switch off to preserve a couple of percent for next week is fine by me.

    Everything clicked. Clear night at the G. Beautiful to watch. Crowd was pretty lame, but it’s North. No injuries. Seagulls absolutely rampant all game. What happened to the falcon? Onto next week.

    When was the last time we kicked 22.7? How good has our goal kicking been this year.

    Asked for a 15 goal win in the pregame thread, got exactly that. 
     

    Should’ve won by more.

    Great win, made even better with the memory of North beating us time after time for years.

    Excellent win

    Definite percentage booster 

    but … only the Dees would allow 3 soft goals in the last 3 minutes to reduce margin from 108 to 90 points!!! 

    Yeah.

    Only the dees.

    Sheesh.

    Concerned that despite the big win our 2 tall fwds only get 2 goals between them and didn’t do a whole lot else. We really need Brown or Tmac in form and back as they would add so much more

    At least the players showed up, cos the supporters definitely didn’t. Shocking crowd for a club with almost 60k members.

    Yep. Pathetic crowd. Perfect weather. You knew it was gonna be a probable giant win. Last home game for a month. Rubbish turnout.

    And I reckon half of those behinds were rushed. Probably we just missed a couple of set shots.

    Very professional effort on a short break. Flashes of excellent ball movement and mostly the right tempo. 

    The most pleasing part was the unselfish work of our forwards. Fritsch and Pickett clearly got the message after some of their efforts last year and it’s great to see it spread through the side.

    And why do you think that is? And remember they ended up with 3 players on the bench due to injury.

    Schache isn’t the answer. Petty back in or BB depending on form at Casey (with Petty to go back)

    • 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.
