Joel Smith has been very unlucky with injuries but I have liked what he has been doing up forward with Casey. Hopefully he can bring that the the G tonight.

Nullify docherty and Cripps’ influences and we will win by a lot!! Who shuts them down?

 

Blue will come out hard and kick straight for once. 

we’ll be down by 3 goals at Q time. 

then we’ll turn the screw led by Gawn and Trac

Hope you’re not tempted to put your throbbing gouty big toe through the tv 📺

Guess your under docs orders no grog.

Gawn is tired, he needs a break. He is captain, he might not let the coach know about it. I don't know BB's situation, he might not be able to play as a forward, could he be able to share the ruck work with Grundy? At moment, our Clearance did not do much favor for us, actually not even 50-50. Without quick ball movement, whoever plays the forward in our players' list, would be struggling. Another is an old issue, some of our players did not kick a drop punt correctly in the set shot. Last game, we had 3 good chances, should have nailed 2 of them, 3 behinds instead. Freo kicked better than us, they won.

Do we really need the players announced pre game with Robbo trying to sound like an American announcer. 

Telling people to make some noise when there's maybe 15k in the house doesn't work either

What odds is McKay to kick the 1st goal? I'd back it.onky because it's typical he'd start kicking straight tonight

  • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • 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.

  • GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    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.

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    The Gold Coast Suns find themselves outside of the top eight for the first time since Round 1 with pressure is mounting on the entire organisation. Their coach Damien Hardwick expressed his frustration at his team’s condition last week by making a middle-finger gesture on television that earned him a fine for his troubles. He showed his desperation by claiming that Fox should pick up the tab.  There’s little doubt the Suns have shown improvement in 2025, and their position on the ladder is influenced to some extent by having played fewer games than their rivals for a playoff role at the end of the season, courtesy of the disruption caused by Cyclone Alfred in March.  However, they are following the same trajectory that hindered the club in past years whenever they appeared to be nearing their potential. As a consequence, that Hardwick gesture should be considered as more than a mere behavioral lapse. It’s a distress signal that does not bode well for the Queenslanders. While the Suns are eager to remain in contention with the top eight, Melbourne faces its own crisis, which is similarly deep-seated but in a much different way. After recovering from a disappointing start to the season and nearing a return to respectability among its peer clubs, the Demons have experienced a decline in status, driven by the fact that while their form has been reasonable (see their performance against the ladder leader in the Kings Birthday match), their conversion in front of goal is poor enough to rank last in the competition. Furthermore, their opponents find them exceptionally easy to score against. As a result, they have effectively eliminated themselves from the finals race and are again positioned to finish in the bottom half of the ladder.

  • NON-MFC: Round 15

    As the Demons head into their Bye Round, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches being played. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons if we can manage to turn our season around? Follow all the non-Melbourne games here and join the conversation as the ladder continues to take shape.
