That was a great shot of the Geelong cheer squad then. He was on his 15th Canadian club and was looking like he couldn't find his way to the loo.

    These are the type of games that can "deerail" a season.

    That ought to shut them right up about the Catties.

    Bet they have a nice easy kill next week to fall back on at the Cattery.

    Actually it is GW$ - one can only hope for four in a row.

    Oh GWS at the Cattery next week, that will be interesting.

    Could have sworn the AFL default fixturing would have lined them up against a Norf or Hawforn type arrangement at the Cattery after an away trip.

    They have had both Norf and Hawf already, boosting their % and temporary top spot

    Please send Essendon up there next year 

    ... and Geelong as well.  

    Knowing AFL however it will probably be us off a 5 day break 😠

    I know the AFL want more goals but games like these are just awful. I’d much prefer a slog with total points < 150. It just makes goals feel more valuable.

    Won't be many pumping up the cats strategy of managing players after the last three games.

    But there might be some pumping up the sun's strategy.

    Back to back games in Darwin, off a 5 day break.

    They rested 5 players I think.

    Credit to the Suns, they ran it out pretty well.

    I've NEVER wanted to stay up to listen to an opposition coaches press conference before. But I might have another beer and hang in there.

    Cats have giants next week.

    And Sydney at the SCG 2 weeks after, before the bye. I think they’ll struggle to win either of those, and turn 8-5.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
