Will take it but that “deliberate” was disgraceful.  
Maggots zero feel for the game.

    Of course Cerra paid high when he held and dropped the ball in our goal.

    Fritsch should have handballed to Chandler. I know he scored, but dribbling it through from 20m when you've got a guy running in for a guaranteed goal isn't the play.

    Thought the same On the replay Chandler wasn't in his field of vision

    Kosi needs  to play crummer not tall

    Does my head in every week. Costs us so many shots at goal. If he stayed down instead of flying like an [censored] he’d probably win the Coleman!

    The Gawn and Grundy combination hasn't worked unfortunately. 

    Having an extra ruckman is simply robbing us of having a tall forward. Our CHF right now is either Pickett or Spargo.

    Bizarre coaching.

    I really wish the insufficient intent rule would be changed.

    Watching Tomlinson closely. The bloke has NFI. Casey is his team.

    Remember when we could hit a target and kick straight?

    Brown needs to be in the team at the expense of a small.

    Grawdy is fine, we can’t afford to have just the one ruckman but they shouldn’t be resting forward.

    Yep, can't remember how many times Spargo or Chandler have to contest the ball with guys 15 - 20 cm taller than them. Very stupid set up IMO.

    We're not gonna see pretty football tonight. We just need to do whatever we can to get this job done.

    Was going to say the same thing. BB would be better as a 2nd ruckman. Problem is I’m not sure Gawn is ahead of Grundy ATM 

     

    Have a bad feeling. Blues have a sniff and will come out with everything.

    We haven’t shown any composure all game and am doubtful it’s going to start now. 

    We need 2 quick goals to ice the game, but unlikely. Goody will try and shutdown the game down and I think it’s going to backfire.

    • 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.
