    Richmond home game at Marvel whilst Marvel tenant Carlton play a home game at the G. Marvel is where we'd be playing if we brought our Alice Springs game home.

    BT just mentioned that the crowd number at Marvel is impressive.

    Does he realise half the top level is closed and the other half isn’t even full?

    Woudn’t be much more than our 17K of last night.

    I’d be more than delighted if we played a home game at Marvel instead of Alice Springs.

    Carlton have been torched today. And looks like they'll be out of the 8 to boot.

    Great to see

    Looking at the fixture, the Hawks and Carlton will make finals. Unless a team with 14 wins doesn’t make it

    The Dogs could miss if they lose today

    Crazy tight

    We had zero chance even if we won last night

    If Carlton don’t make the finals, that’s gotta be one of the biggest chokes of all time. To miss with that list would be harder than making the finals.

    And get so many people keep bagging goody despite his valiant efforts with a list which, this season, has been decimated.

    Exactly this. 
    One of if not the best spine in the league. A graders on every line. 
    To not even make the 8, when their best players have been mostly healthy all season, is absolutely the worst underachievement of the season.

    I'd be happy to have an extra game I could attend too BBP. As most of our supporter base prefer to watch us on TV however perhaps it's better we pocket the $800k.

    Wow just saw the score.

    What the hell, gee hasn't mitchell turned hawthorn around.

    And what is scary is that if the Hawks get into the 8 they can go a long way. This is the greatest  “gap year” we have seen for years. There is hardly a team in the 8 this year that is in form and deserving of a premiership. They all have significant weaknesses. I thought Sydney were the real deal but they’ve dropped away, Carlton, Geelong, Port, Freo aren’t great sides. Maybe the Dogs have finally clicked and with Brisbane are genuine, inform contenders.

    Hawks will win their 2 games aginst tiges and North

    Carlton play Eagles next week. I don't fancy them to win that at all and especially if Curnow is injured. I don't know who falls out of the 8 so they get in. I reckon they're cooked.

    I only saw the last quarter and a bit EH but they were giving me Dees 1987 finals vibes as they couldn't do a thing wrong. Like when we steamrolled North and Sydney at the G in consecutive weeks.

    Carlton, Collingwood and Essendon to finish 9th, 10th & 11th. AFL might have to extend Wildcard Round to 12 teams.

    “Heptides” sounds like an STD and “idiocracy67” - well that just speaks for itself

    • 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.
