A pyrrhic victory. Hard to get excited. Forward line is still a big problem especially Fritsch who let a youngster in Archer wipe the floor with him.

    The rules must have been changed again but nobody told us if you move on the mark when the player feigns a handball it is 50. That is bull dust! Cost us another goal. Putrid call.

    I was just at the ground. When the siren went I just got up and walked out.

    The 50 metres to Windsor was right in front of me: to the letter of the law that’s a 50. THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED TO TMAC 2 MINUTES LATER - AND NO 50. 

    The players were going berserk. The standard of umpiring can’t even be consistent for 3 minutes.

    The AFL is losing me. The umpiring is so inconsistent. Everyone waffles on about ‘the game is so hard to umpire’. It’s not an accident. It’s happening too often, and making them too much money.

    Assume they didn’t celebrate or sing the song?

    I am gobsmacked by that. Scoreless in the last quarter. Holding the ball whenever we had it on the wing and letting them flood.

    We have zero confidence. Zero synergy. No structure. 

    We are poorly coached and playing like huge plodders. We are bottom 4 the way we are playing.

    Surely no one could defend Simon on that call…. It was embarrassing

    A relaxing evening spent watching our boys establish their premiership credentials on the hallowed turf. Can only assume positive comments in game day thread and this one. I hope Steven May’s head is ok too. That looked very nasty.

    Did you watch that last quarter? That definitely wasn’t the worst possible result.

    I think they are saying at least if they came over the top of us we’d be looking at getting rid of a coach who has obviously lost the players

    We’re in such a hole, how is our forward line getting worse.

     

    Clarry gave away 5 free kicks tonight, $1 million a year he is being paid by us, what an absolute joke.

     

    estatic I’m going to the game next week…..

    34 points up in the 3rd and we serve that shy te up in the last.

    Happy for the young lads tonight.

    We are a diabolical football team. 15 scoring shots against a bunch of kids. Overrun by a team we have huge amounts of experience over.

    This club is quickly sending us back to the depths.

    Like it or not, it is very simple. We are the softest football club in the land. We have been for a long time. We had an aberration for about 15 months a few years ago but normal service is resumed...we are always gettable because we have soft players on every line, and as a club we've never demanded anything else.

    Don't know what was worse, England's performance after Kane's goal or us after half time.

    • 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.
