You just know that 90% of those GWS supporters in the crowd must be player family members.

A lot of hindsight Harry’s in this thread

that 50 to the Giants scares me. The Saints guys is meant to hear Stand from the ump from 30m away with a big loud crowd. 

that should never be a 50. change the rule now

 

Saints still have no stars

playing finals does them no favours

they need elite talent 


At the station with a herd of saints fans. They need a hug. 

Narrative on 7 now changed to how brave the Saints have been. Spare me, they have been [censored].

The Saints have been boring and wont be missed but I won’t trash talk their finals exit until we beat the blues and save ourselves from another straight sets exit 😬

Even the cheer squad has a sign that reads ‘I’m definitely not an AFL employee’.


on a positive note - how good is it not be seeing those greased up fool in blue and white hoops play this weekend?

not to mention hawks, WC, bombers etc

AFL were on airtasker all week getting the Giants ‘fans’ to turn up

The giants play bloody good football, good to watch and their top end is absolutely elite

When in Melbourne they book the broom cupboard at the Mountain View Hotel for after game functions. 

Tom Green pick 10 in that seriously good 2019 draft.

He’s a gun. He’s absolutely massive too. He’s only going to keep getting better.

Shocker of a 1st finals week.

Coll and Blues winning by a kick  GWS looking dangerous Bedford kicking goals  WTF

All i need now is for Lions to win.

That #&@%## McRae can wipe that smerk off his face. Pies obviously had a plan to get one of our mids.

Result? Brayshaw obliterated and JVR suspended.

Maynard?  Tuesday He gets weeks.  Thursday  50/50 he gets off on appeal assuming hes suspended. It was all just an unfortunate misunderstanding.  Water under the bridge.  0 weeks.

To be fair did anyone think they’ll make finals?

The poor giants cheersquad. They try there best to be heard. But I'd rather hear them then the ferals chanting Collingwood. 

But good on them for showing up. Even had giants fans in the mcc

It's amazing how many have forgotten that we didn't let him go. We offered a three tear contract and Toby asked to be traded because he believed he could not break into our side. GWS contacted Tobys management and asked to meet when they knew Hill was leaving. 

GWS have some genuine A graders.  They are a very good team.  Kingsley has done a fantastic job.  Whoever they get next week will know they have played a game.

You aren't paying enough attention Dub...

 

Chandler's game against Willy was pretty decent i thought.  Will probably need to kick the door down to get another look though me thinks after his very ordinary first up performance in Rnd 9 vs the Blues last season.

I liked Bedford's first up game this year.  Looked more switched on to the high end tempo of AFL and brought some serious pace and reasonable finish at the highest level.  However, he pretty much only played half a match so would need to see a chunk more and playing a large part of a match before being convinced he is ready.

Laurie i haven't seen enough of of late at VFL level to say.

If i had to pick one who is more ready out of the three i'd probably say Bedford but not with a high degree of confidence.

Has shown signs of brilliance in some of his games and hasn't had a real run at it given he's later in the pecking order behind Spargo & Kozzie.

Some of his ground ball gets under pressure are as clean as i've seen.  Same goes for the finish.  This bloke knows where the goals are and is pretty accurate on conversion.  Bit of a rarity nowadays.

A good back up for Kozzie in my view and an up and coming option if we need to go with three smalls depending on match ups. 

BUGGER OFF BOMBERS...NO TRADE!!

It will all depend on what they give him, if he gets two he can fight and win but if they give him the four or five that's being talked about there is no way he gets off on appeal. PS if he only gets the two it was prearranged anyway. 

Bedford played exactly as we thought we would.   Pace.  Pressure. Goalscoring. After being sub for 8-9 games and dropped , he wanted to be given a chance. Goodwin and others seriously got this one wrong imv.  He always looked like a player.  This is not hindsight.  We called it out over the past 3 years when he was on our list.

  • 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.
