    Remember how we finished off the season in 2020? It was important that we gave it everything despite not having a shot at finals.Ā 

    This performance tonight says a lot about intent, resilience and pride.

    Yes the team is young , but we arenā€™t even trying. Itā€™s a fn disgrace.Ā

    Umps are on Daicos Brownlow watch. Called a free back to Nick after they had taken advantage and had 3 possessions.

    slightly better that quarter but still brain dead football letting collingwood players run by themselves with no pressure. they just run the ball down the field pulling players to them and getting the overlap. Dumb, dumb football. the umpiring has been pretty poor quite a few collingwood players have clearly dropped the ball when tackled and nothing. I thought the rule was if a player is sliding in and takes out another player below their legs they are at fault. a lot of poor ball disposal, poor choices, and what happened to that strong tackling we supposed to have shown a few weeks ago. I love fritter but he just runs around and does not seem to be accountable for anyone. all of our players need to put more pressure on the player with the ball. that will result in turnovers, fumbles etc. but at the moment its too easy,

    So the thug ran in when kozzie went into Moore, no other Collingwood remonstrated with kozzie then melksham ran in and the thug backed off

    Pressure rating towards end of that quarter was 156 - way below an acceptable AFL standardĀ 

    The average is 180 ... we've rarely hit that across an entire match all year.Ā  Last week was one exception.

    That first quarter was a great example of how far this system is (Goodwin's system) from finals level footy.

    Was in a trance the last 5 mins. Really can't thank you enough Benny, for your contributions, for the Grand Final, for what you do off field, for everything.

    We were still a chance to play finals though. We needed Freo to win. And our game was before there's. We would have got in on percentage. We lost to Freo and Sydney in the last month despite being heavy favourites in both. We won our last two but we choked to end the season.

    I've enjoyed watching Kolt's efforts tonight. Diving to attempt smothers, chasing, corralling. Once he stops fumbling and gets used to the pace, will be great creating turnovers. He did cause a few in that quarter. Keep trying hard, young fella.

    The umpire never called play on and you can hear him say daicos free several times.

    • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      The Gold Coast Suns find themselves outside of the top eight for the first time since Round 1 with pressure is mounting on the entire organisation. Their coach Damien Hardwick expressed his frustration at his teamā€™s condition last week by making a middle-finger gesture on television that earned him a fine for his troubles. He showed his desperation by claiming that Fox should pick up the tab.Ā  Thereā€™s little doubt the Suns have shown improvement in 2025, and their position on the ladder is influenced to some extent by having played fewer games than their rivals for a playoff role at the end of the season, courtesy of the disruption caused by Cyclone Alfred in March.Ā  However, they are following the same trajectory that hindered the club in past years whenever they appeared to be nearing their potential. As a consequence, that Hardwick gesture should be considered as more than a mere behavioral lapse. Itā€™s a distress signal that does not bode well for the Queenslanders. While the Suns are eager to remain in contention with the top eight, Melbourne faces its own crisis, which is similarly deep-seated but in a much different way. After recovering from a disappointing start to the season and nearing a return to respectability among its peer clubs, the Demons have experienced a decline in status, driven by the fact that while their form has been reasonable (see their performance against the ladder leader in the Kings Birthday match), their conversion in front of goal is poor enough to rank last in the competition. Furthermore, their opponents find them exceptionally easy to score against. As a result, they have effectively eliminated themselves from the finals race and are again positioned to finish in the bottom half of the ladder.
