    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.

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.
