    GC will be lucky to get a goal by half time the way this is going

    That was unreal from the Howe kick out.

    Never in the world have we ever attempted what he just did.

    Will have lots of free time to lose a few kgs next year methinks.

    Dont need to worry about a 20th licence, either Suns should fold or merge with GWS and keep the comp at 18 teams.

    Pathetic from the Suns

    They keep making me lose in my tipping competition 😡😡, I have lost 4 rounds because of them. Don't know why I keep trusting them.

    Pies just look like they are centrally by by AI. Their game at times looks so ridiculously in sync that you would say it’s flukey - but it is not.
     

    Yes the Suns really suck and I think this game will just about seal Dewy’s fate. Poor fella - had a Rolls Royce list but could never really create a team environment. They need to bring in Hardwick and a brand new coaching panel.

    At least the stands will still stay full, unless Pie fans think it’s time to hit Jupiters.

    Yes. But I reckon they’re more deliberately creative - and they pull it off so many times. And a feature in this game has been the breakneck speed running past the ball carrier - incredible. They get 20-25 meters instantly each time. But then a silky delivery into 50. Very impressive.

    No pressure in this game of course. We showed what can happen if you hassle and block and choke their ball movement.

    But the Pies style looks very, very good if you give them an inch.

    Collingwood showing what a genuine contender should do against a bottom 10 team.

    We should do similar against GWS tomorrow.

    This game is all about the meaningless of the Suns. I’d love to know their stats in the last 10 weeks of a season since their inception. They still can’t hang in when it matters.

    They don’t mean anything, and nobody cares. I bet Fitzroy wish they were given this much grace.

    Just send them to Tasmania and keep the competition at 18 teams.

    If we were doing this to the Suns, Demonlanders would say, well, it's only Gold Coast, this is the bare minimum.

    We love a good re-frame on Demonland though.

    I mean we barely got out of Metricon alive. 
    But the Suns don’t play second halves of seasons. The bye is their end of season trip.

    That's it. I'd be quite happy to play the Suns between Round 16-24. Remember what we did to them at Marvel in 2021? They throw in the towel pretty quickly.

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
