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.

Olds?

 

Albanian background but majority of the Yze's all grew up in Shepp.

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.

Can the 'Petty's not a forward' crew please stand up, please stand up, please stand up.

And then sit down, and shut the [censored] up!

Yeah, Guilty as Charged!! AMAZING PERFORMANCE!😁

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.


Well, I was going to play nice today and wake up nice and early for work tomorrow. 
 

Stuff that.

 

I think it’s about time to jump into my freezer and see what range of guilty pleasures there are there for me. 😎

Joel Smith... the Super Sub!

I waited for rain to stop after game; 
thirty mins later he’s running the boundary with a trainer

As they say in the classics.

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.

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
