Kozzys form a real worry. just not on his game at all.

Since signing his contract extension he’s been poor. If it wasn’t for his potential you’d drop him.

 

Petracca should be banned from going for goal at this point. It’s actually comical.

    Well ankle is better than foot. No doubt about that. 

    True. Pauline is adamant it’s his ankle. I told her the Club are reporting it’s his foot. She said it depends on who you talk to from the Club. She spoke to Fritta himself. 


    Trac needs to dish it off. His goal kicking just hopeless today

    Petracca's definitely not going to die wondering if he can kick goals - he'll know he can't.


    Tracc could be a worthy Brownlow medalist IF HE COULD KICK!

    Bowsers a belter. His quick step and composure is fantastic.

    the HTB tackle followed up by a great delivery. much better kozzy

    On another note, Himmelberg isn’t worth 400k let alone the 800-900k being reported in the media. Absolutely bog average third tall at either end.

    yr like a broken record

    we clear about $800k as a result of selling the game to nt - it's one of our biggest sponsorships

    no nt govt, no yze, no choco, no burgess into selywn, etc. etc

    Yep because I reckon it stinks.

    We have 65k members and a recent flag. If a club can’t turn that into a replacement sponsor then I’d be asking very hard questions of the sponsorship department.

    It made sense circa 2011-20. That we still do it with so much to play for is frankly a disgrace.

    • 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.
