It's a real shame you can't rely on a 4 quarter performance from Melbourne anymore.

GW$ are a very good team - they weren’t going to lie down after QT.

    They made a prelim and should have won it last year if not for umpire corruption

    Never known a side like us to blow a good lead. We are incapable of playing 4 quarters. Billing’s continues to disappoint.

    Yeah and on that why doesn't anyone ever remember how lucky Collingwood were to get past them in that prelim?

    Our 2nd qtrs have got to be the worst in the AFL. Goody goes in with a strategy for the first qtr and then the other teams adjust and we get rolled.

    Over to Goody to shift the game.

    Essendon

    This game sums us up totally.

    On and off.

    Round to round.

    Quarter to quarter.

    Kozzie and Fritta too.

    Turn up. Don't turn up.

    Selections too. Good and bad.

    Maybe it's one of those games with scoring ends but I think I'm stretching with this.

    We looked so good for 20 mins.

    This is a must win game.

    Let's see if we want it.

    Windsor has been quiet with four disposals. Woey too.

    Anb and Kozzie and Billings all not playing their best by a mile.

    I'd put Milk in the middle.

    Claz having a great game.

    Just wish his kicks would actually hit a target instead of him just hacking it

    Some harsh standards being applied to us in my opinion. Giants have an absurd amount of talent and Kingsley is a coach that has brought the best out of them. It’s not really unexpected if we lose. They’re really good.

    We were outplayed in that qtr and they had more intensity at the ball. 

    We just have to come out firing again. They are not going to give this game to us. They are a seriously good side and need to be treated as such.

    Let’s come out and kick the first few hey?

    He has pressured his butt off 

    I agree but he needs to get the ball and do what he does best.

    He's there to get the ball and score. Don't win games from chasing the opposition all night.

    Callaghan had 14 disposals that qtr. Need to get AnB on him.

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

    • 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.
