0 stars. We were absolutely putrid. No winners.

Defense so so so much better when Petty was down there.

    Phew, take that any day. A few things to work on during the week. I thought McVee with some subtle touches saved a couple of goals in the second half.

    Top game!

    A hard fought win against a tough opponent !

    They picked through our defence too easily at times but , in the end, some big moments from Max, Tracc , Oliver in the last quarter got us over the line.

    Some confusing umpiring again.

    Fritta - an absolute mare!

    J.Viney won that game for us.

    Disgusting commentary by Dunstall, barracking for the Suns and calling umps decisions that weren’t even there.

    We won without any of our key forwards barely doing anything. Phew!

    Any top 4 side would've killed us tonight

    Matt Rowell is an unbelievable clearance player, and made Trac and Clarry look second rate at times. 

    I thought Jack Viney, Max Gawn, Trent Rivers, Jake Bowey, and Judd McVee were the only ones who came close to winning their position on the night.

    We did get lucky with a few calls in the last. No doubt about it. 

    They were a man down for half of the last quarter too.

    Take the points and hope we never play like this again. 

    My god some players need to do some work on the track this week 

    I was very nervous with may kicking out. Again he went the stupid option but thank goodness Viney was there.

    We were lucky to get out of that.

    Bring back BBB. Petty is so much better down back and he steadies us.

    Start Max forward next week and let Brodie ruck the majority.

    Got out of jail big time.

    The Suns were very good and very unlucky not to win

    Plenty to work on but we’ll bank the 4 points and move on

    And Fritschy will never play a worse game than that

    depending on how the suns go for the reminder of the season, this could be looked back on as a great/ pivotal win.

    GC came to play, but we were generally poor with flashes of brilliance, such as the Trac, Kozzie and Chandler goals. Defence was yuck, and it is so confusing that we got smashed again in the middle.

    Oliver and Frittata worst games for a long time. 

    Very lucky in the end. We take the points, but we have a lot of work to do.

    As soon as I saw him with ball in hand I thought we were cooked. He is such a dumb player under pressure. 

    My kingdom for a fit Salem! 
     

    Fritta needs to walk home. He nearly cost us that game in the last. Also goodbye 35 game goal kicking streak.

    Umm and a few others down back. Trac and Jack really lifted in the last.

    Wow what a finish, not sure May is the best use of the pill when we need to kill quarters and end of game. Both end of 3rd and end of game makes poor decisions.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
