Is Kozzy injured? He couldn't kick straight to save his life.

    3 out of bounds in the last qtr!!

    Are we now finals chokers?

    Consecutive losses: 3 with pretty poor performances in each. 

    Also bugger off Richo and Maynard had no care for how Gus was. Just trying to defend his thuggery. 

    So deflated. Blues/swans will know we are gettable. 

    Where did we go tonight???!!

    Grundy will be practising his set shots all week after this. Van Rooyen one week no doubt.

    Sad that even with our poor kicking we let Pies win tge game in tge first quarter. 

    Our midfield and wings were disgraceful in the first.

    And we'll go into the next match without Brayshaw and probably JVR. 

    Nice while it lasted, but we are not winning it from here even if we do win next week.

    Very selfish from Rivers, why take a 45 m kick when you have players all around the goal square.

    Lost in the first quarter. For a team coming off 2 insipid finals performances last year to get smashed at the contest like we did in Q1 is just hard to fathom.

    How many teams have done two consecutive straight sets exits? Are we going to add another 'embarrassing record' to our list?

    Essendon did it about six years in a row before becoming a powerhouse.

    That was sheethouse.
    Continuous long bombs into a crowded forward line and sheet kicking.
    I'm sure there'll be "learnings."
    But it won't be from the coach.

    Fritta and TMac looked like 2 guys who haven't played for months. And now we have to go the long way, without Gus or JVR.

    Tmac is cooked

    Literally just handed the flag to Collingwood.

    Here i was thinking I had full faith in Goodwin, but how wrong was i. We're heading for a straight set exit in finals two years in a row purely of arrogant teams selections and senior players failing to stand up when needed.

    McDonald, Salem, Chandler Laurie were absolutely trash.

    Petracca and Gawn were the only ones willing to stand up but unfortunately the rest didn't want to follow.

    McDonald can honestly retire for all i care. Needed that goal to just completely turn the game and he had a mare.

    So disappointing.

    I agree, JJ would have been better.  He was barely sighted (On tv) like a few of our players.

    Wet weather. Play slow. Kick behinds. Lose.

    Effectively killed our season in that first quarter. We knew that’s what they’d bring, more than anything else about the game. Match them, and it was ours to lose. Let them get a more than 3 goal jump, and it would be too much. That we failed to stop them is enormously disappointing and frustrating. But we just weren’t up to it. Hope it’s not a wasted chance at a flag, but it’s sure looking that way. And to any of you saying Collingwood don’t deserve to be where they are now, wake up! It’s a four quarter game.

    I felt sick after Gus went down, incredibly tough for the players to come back from that. Could be career ending.

    5 mins longer and we likely win that.

    Incredibly frustrating game and there’s some hard questions to be asked of a number of players.

    Also, Cox is the biggest piece of [censored] going round, the dive into Trac’s legs and then holding it while he twists is so incredibly dangerous

    That's the sad truth brother. Fingers crossed for Gus but it's not good news.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
