Similarly experienced line up didn’t help us vs Richmond at Casey 2 weeks ago, but last week was a good win vs Box Hill away, so who knows?

Yeah, I feel like it's not the forward's fault exclusively. Both teams aren't delivering it that well to them at times.

Still some work to do not just to bomb it in from 60 or 70 out.

Which in a positive way, is great as both teams are near the top of the ladder and still have room to improve how they get it in to the forwards I think.

I reckon we're running at 80 percent of our potential.

    Dunstan out is a big loss. He’s virtually BOG every week.  
     

    Tmcd rested to get his body 100%.  At least we hope there is no further ongoing foot issues.  Whilst he’s not in form, having him fit for a late season cameo might be handy.

    Did T Mac fly up injured or did he sustain it up there?

    Wow, looking at this picture and reading the words I can hear Don Adam's funny voice.

    One of the funniest scenes from that show was when 99s mother came to live with them. She witnessed Max fighting with several enemy agents. She looked at 99 and said she had no idea the greeting card business was so tough.

    Mel Brooks was just a wonderful comedy producer

    Would not mind seeing Woewodin playing the small forward role today for a half or so to see how he goes.

    Similarly play Laurie on the HBF for a while.

    IMO fringe players are wise to develop in say two positions to maximise their chances of a senior game.

    I wonder where we will see Joel S play today? Is he the Lever understudy or the secret weapon forward ?

    Joel would make the perfect sub can play forward/back.

    That Gold Coast side is strong seasoned bodies on all lines. If we are to get over the top of them, there will need to be some performances that would have the selectors excited. Personally, I hope Howes at half back shows composure and nous to take the game on. Bbb, melksham, smith; all will need to make the most of opportunity as I believe their midfield has our measure. (I rate sharp on the wing as afl quality, had freo obtained him in trade period imv our future picks wouldn’t be looking as rosy)

    Whilst it is disappointing for Dunstan to be out for an extended stretch it should allow increased midfield minutes for Laurie and Woewodin to develop their midfield  game. I hopefully we also provide opportunity for Sestan and Howes to increase their centre bounce attendances which they have done a few times this season. It’s good to have a strong Casey but the most important element is developing our future Dees.

    Watching him up close at Wonthaggi last week his athleticism was amazing 

    If he could stay healthy his up side is unlimited

    Daniel Turner is out, replaced by Ryan Valentine - not sure if this means he’s playing in the main game.

    Meanwhile, first blood to the Suns 6 - 0.

    a bird's eye view with this camera angle

    not bad for giving an overall view of play

    Really high up and way down at one end of the ground. Reminds me of the camera angle at VFL Park.

    Gold Coast have 20 listed AFL players (including 9 rookies) in that side all the way down to the bench where Josh Corbett, formerly listed AFL player is selected.  That's a strong team.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
