    If he hadn't played on, then scored, we would be in this.

    Not sure how Petty played if we’re trying to avoid the balls up of 2022 - subbed off hurt last week, picked again, subbed off again with what looks like the same problem.. mental stuff 

    The mishandling of Petty both positionally and through injury has summed up the year.

    I had a hunch he'd be all in tonight.
    I've backed him in to beat VC Bonts 130 as Cpt in Supercoach.

    Good call. On track for double ton.

    Four Umps out there and not one is watching for what for exactly what we added an Ump for.

    This is going to be a huge margin to recover in this final quarter. 
    But when you look at the game, we have been dominant, but sloppy. 
     

    Looking like another, wasted game on our way to trying to win multiple premierships.

    If we don't win this.

    We won't get 4th and in turn we waste a 5th year without a flag.

    But we won one in 70 so let's trust goody.

    We are looking more and more like an easy kill against good opposition.

    Goodwin refuses to change our system or doesnt know how to. Either way, he has got to go. Our list simply cannot go from being so good to so bad this quickly.

    2021 all players bought in, now they are not as committed. The coach has lost the players, or cannot get them motivated. His time has come and gone.

    2020 Goodwin promised us finals, couldn't deliver.

    2023 Again promising to take us deep into finals and avoid the mistakes of 2022, it's not looking great so far

    Im not sure we’ve been dominant. Since halfway through the first quarter the game has been played in Brisbane’s forward half.

    Our midfield has been very average. Even Viney.

    Lever hasn't touched it.

    Langdon the same.

    Our fwd line ....see midfield.

    Unless Goody mixes things up will see more pain.


    Kinda surprised how easily the Lions can break down our game plan and hurt us with their kicking game.

    Not just that but how they can dominate in the air.

    We look scarred, they totally have our number now. The one thing I'm hanging onto is there are goals in this game, hopefully they can be from us.

    They are told to be perfect with footy, sometimes you just need to kick it! Handball when there is 4 seconds left 🤦🏻‍♂️

    Is the Heartbreaker required to do a fitness test each week? I can't remember him being actually fit.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • 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.

      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.
