    and nailing them!

    Over the head from 10m out seems a strange practice routine.

    Jordan dropped again?  Getting beyond the joke with this kid. I'd leave too if I was getting this sort of treatment.

     

    He is one of the young fellas that NEVER should be dropped; it's clear to see that he is not totally out of the team but he has done his 'sub' apprenticeship a dozen times over. He really is a talent; coming onto the field at on-demand, unwarm-up haphazard moments , given a verbal briefing of a role to play (never the same, in terms of building attributes), with responsibilities to turn games on their head (particularly recently). He has talent, he shows talent and quietly, remains 'Mr Kool' going about the tasks at hand as allocated. He creates attacking space but as the young brother of his brethren - just coming onfield instead of at the start of the game - he is overlooked by teammates quite frequently. This young man is worthy of retention as well as legitimate game time across four quarters.

    Random fun fact:

    Joel Smith hasn’t kicked a goal since the 2018 prelim final.

    Not much in the world has happened since…

    If someone told you back then that the next time he kicks a goal (hopefully), would be after a global pandemic and a flag, you’d laugh and cry and laugh

    Haha, so true.

    I have tried to erase the memory of the 2018 prelim but if memory serves he kicked a goal in the goal square during junk time of the 18 prelim.

    Has he played in a winning side since that day/night.

    He's definitely a bust as a top 3 pick, but if you can pick him up as a delisted free agent or for a late pick it would be a smart option for depth. Dunstan will probably be delisted after this season.

    No no and no


    If you look at the screens at the ground it says harmes is the sub. But they've put the wrong name up before

    Harmes has to be the obvious sub.

    BBB would never be sub  while you’d imagine we would’ve seen a mid week video of Woey if he were playing tonight.

    Turner an outside chance.

    I confess to being mildly shocked he'd played 17 games in that time.

    • 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.
