Anyone know the last Demons player to kick 6 goals straight in a game?

I'd like to lock in Kozzie in the Alice last year for $2000.

    tactical, cos they subbed miller out so we needed to go smaller defensively to keep the match-ups the same

    👍 They also moved balta forward not long after

    Tommo spot would have to be safe with petty starring forward and Smith the super sub

    Ahhh you humblebragged your location finally 🍷😇

    Haha. Of course an engineered slip. But I'm thinking of moving here: to see the town flying the red and blue in September would be an awesome sight, and I think I can rally the local folk.

    Agree to disagree, didn’t read any comment in the pre game thread that had Petty kicking a bag. I’m glad that he did. I just find it childish when people want to carry on with their “to those who doubted…..”, footy’s an emotional game. I was wrong and I’m happy I was.

    If I didn't read it, nobody ever thought it possible. Love it

    And then snipe. Childish? Read your comment again. That's childish, very subtle though, well played.

    I don't want to rub it in, we're all friends here. I get it wrong as much as anyone.

    Petty not a forward hey???? 

    He had me fooled,though mostly because I figured he was backline glue. 

    Let's see how it plays out over time

    Max Gawn in the mood has to be the most dominant player in the game.
    Best ruckman I've seen.

    Albanian heritage. Not sure if born there or here. Probably here.

    We’re all talking top 2 now dude, top 4 is so last week

    For three quarters today the result was in the balance. But for our fantastic finishing burst, we could have had the chasing pack at our heels.

    I can put my hand up as being in that camp, but to be fair no one saw this coming. Nothing he’d done playing fwd this year gave any indication he had a game like that in him.

    Except the first half against Hawthorn before he got injured was bordering on awesome.

    I'm in Albania and would like to get the small town I'm in flying our flag for the finals. If anyone knows where his family is from it could help convince.

    We made the sub first because our backline was far too slow and was getting exploited.

    All the Tommo truthers might deny it but he has a stinker. Coughed up easy possession in the middle of the ground consistently. 5 clangers from 7 touches.

    Was an excellent move by Goodwin to make a brave early call. Smith had at least one classic Smith moment with the Balta goal but otherwise gave us much needed defensive speed.

    I suspect Hibbo takes the 2nd tall role unless they gamble on Smith full time.

    The Richmond melts on bigfooty are something else

    its extraordinary. its was all the umpires. !! talk about excuses. 

    I thought Richmond melted under pressure in the last, their backline became very shaky, Dusty nowhere to be seen as we just closed them down perfectly.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
