First half, good.

Second half, thinking about Port Adelaide.

Spargo can kick longer than 40 metres.

    Can't believe I'm going to have to watch Sparrow have 12 touches a week @ 28% efficiency for the next 8 years

    We had the game iced at half time and then took our foot off the pedal - not ideal -but there it is.

    Dorks came back hard but Petracca, Oliver, Viney , Max lifted as required.

    Yes we produced some bloopers .... that is football ... not the reason for suicide that some of the negative Nancies on this site seem to find.

    Take the points and take the percentage and move towards September.

    PS 1. I'm waiting for the day Kossie actually hangs on to one of those speccys  - it will be mark of the century.

    PS 2. No doubt who Jason Dunstall used to play for !

    PS 3. My ideal finish to this evening will be watching the paper baggers get a jolly good reaming.

    Another 10 goal win game against a team that absolutely bashes us into the ground.

    Teams are absolutely throwing everything at us and we're still winning by 10 goals. It looks uninspiring but these are hard fought wins

    Now to do it against decent oppositon. Freo, Port, Carlton, Collingwood to come.

    Petracca hobbling. Hope he's ok. Didn't look great. I notice he's being interviewed on fox. What's he saying?

    “Full credit to Hawthorn”, “one game at a time”, “gotta keep doing the one percenters”.

    He's taken the boot off. He can hardly walk 

    I hope it’s a corky not a foot. Limping badly.

    WHAT HAPPENED TO TRAC???

    Ankle roll in the Sicily tackle. Spoke to Ben Dixon after the game and seemed ok. Should be good to go next week.

    Tracc might be out next week by the looks of that unfortunately

    Dunstall obviously hasn't forgotten about Earl's knee.

    Well Petty has shown us why Goody perservered.

    A lacklustre win despite the score somehow. 

    Props to Jv, Oliver and Trac.

    • 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.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
