Max Gawn is the demon helmsman. Best performance by a ruckman this season.

Viney just outstanding again 

He gives his all every time. He lives and breathes Melbourne. 

What a game. At 3/4 time I had n9 idea how this would land but it was one of the best games to watch. Cracking contest. 

 

Great fun that was

petty jvr and melks brilliant.

max second half was immense 

we ran out the game easily. Runners everywhere 

look out comp. We’re gunning for the flag

go dees

We didn’t start all that great, and it’s probably not ideal that we leaked nearly 100 points…

BUT

We were challenged by a team fighting for finals/with momentum and we steered the ship. No easy games from here. 

Importantly, we found our way to goals and it was exhilarating at times. Petty and Melksham were simply awesome. 

Even more importantly, very quietly, can you feel us cranking up??! 

CAN YOU!!??? 

Go Dees 🔥

 


That was a finals type match and both teams had everything to play for.  We prevailed comfortably in the end after being headed several times.  That’s what the fair dinkum contenders do!  Bring on September!

Great last quarter and Captain Max was amazing.

Good to see JVR play is best game thus far.

Same! We're going to be steamrolling them with Clarrie and Fritsch. 

Sparrow, Clarrie and Fritta make that team better on paper, pig too. Going to have some selection headaches soon.

Credit to goody. Even though Tommo had a tough one, he was rewarded this weekend. And thanks for trialling Petty once more.

The momentum changed in the 4th quarter. I think we came out to really make a statement. A hard fought comfortable win.

Petty not a forward hey???? 

Watch the” Petty can’t play forward” posters jump on the bandwagon now.

Max was sensational again and Viney is our bull.

Maybe Binman is right too with the loading, as we certainly ran away from them in the last.

Hopefully we can now run over teams, right through to the flag.

No!  he is the perfect Sub.

He is, but we are also a tall forward short.

See how many intercept marks Richmond got today in our forward line.

Keep Tomlinson back, drop Harmes/Woewodin/Jordon and move Smith forward.

  • 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.
