Gus letting his man roam free at half forward as usual. Allows the deep inside 50 and you never know what they’ll create from there 

If Gold Coast were a half decent footy club with some mongrel they'd pump us by 10 goals. They want it way more. If we switch it on just a bit we win. Gold Coast has a huge opportunity here.

 

Lazy tackle by Fritsch.


Ben King’s second touch, not all May’s fault

firstly, they're not a club they're a franchise

they are however playing well as a team

Love Bowza.

Also, that was a mess.

Would be nice to get some i50 marks. They seem to be all over us back there.

Terrible inside 50 from Oliver but you’ll take it

C'mon Fritter, LIFT!!!

Big second half coming up for the Hair Raiser!

1 kick, 2 HB just not enough Bailey

allowing to many GC players to run free, we always have trouble with teams that do that. We are lucky their disposal rate is not higher or we would be behind. we just dont know how to handle sides the run with the ball. Collingwood, Essendon and even Brisbane do it and we just dont cover the player running past, free players ahead, etc. I expect we will win, but so far not a very impressive performance that could very easily turn into a loss. where is the skill and precision we saw a part of at least against north.

Collingwood would murder us if we paly like this

    Bowey is the most reliable player in our side at the moment.

    We are a club with a strong culture getting seriously challenged by a team with no culture. Embarrassing 🤦🏼‍♂️

    Hunter.  What were you thinking?  Or, what, were you thinking?

     

    Derrwayne and Dunstan seeing every little thing GC way.  Pathetic barracking.

    This game doesn’t make sense.

    Why put a skinny kid like Turner on a bloke like Casboult?

    We are just bombing it anywhere into our forward line and it’s easily getting picked off.

    Lever, Oliver and Fritter need to lift big time.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
