They are picking us apart. Look much more likely forward. Cleaner and better numbers to the fall of the ball. 
 

we look like we are under committing at the contest. Seems deliberate.

 

We've been let off massively with ports goalkicking. They are finding targets inside 50 way too easy.

lol it is not. Port ain't bad.

Not sure what game you are watching - we look 2nd rate. Late to the ball. Outnumbered at contest. Hacking the ball when in possession . 

Our only goal has come from a dubious 50m penalty.

FMD what a disaster of a quarter. 
Sloppy, soft, messy.

We can’t handle the hot ball. Stock standard Melbourne. 

Dove head first

 

what studs are we wearing? we're slipping whenever we take possesion

 


They're out numbering us around the stoppages.

So many more Port players then us 

We look completely sluggish

Oh how many times are they going to drop knees.

Sucked in big time ump you total amateur. 

lol Horne Francis. Threw his head back before he was even tackled.

Really frustrating watching this quarter. 
Why is May miles off his man???

Been frustrating this whole season so far. Patchy in all games.


Isn't it not a high free if you duck into it???

Port deserve that lead. We are playing pathetic football. 
If we don’t start getting our act together through the middle, we can kiss this game goodbye. 
As for our backline, the less said the better. 


Was hoping we'd get away with that quarter but no we definitely had to gift them so they had reward for effort. Port in the drivers seat

This has been bugging me for ages now, why, whenever we have a rushed kick do we sky ball it? Seems literally everyone else's rushed kicks are stab passes which often land in their team mates lap. Ours are ALWAYS spoiled and often rebound back the other way

  • 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.
