The Gold Coast Suns have won 5 games at the MCG in total since their inception in 2011. The Suns MCG victims were Melbourne in 2013, 2014, Hawthorn in 2017, Collingwood in 2021 and Richmond in 2024.

The last Suns win against Melbourne was in 2014. I believe we will win today by 12 points. Let's hope my prediction is correct.

Langford 20 & 3

If it was Jakovich I'd read that as 20 goals and a 3 week suspension.

    Did they not do their homework or pickup their mess ??

    Life isn’t always a bed of roses. It’s a lesson they need to learn.

    You'd rather lose and justify to yourself our gamesyle is no good than win against an up and coming side where our gamestyle holds up?

    Did you read my post? I was responding to someone stating that Carlton losing will take the heat off us if we lose too.

    Are you sure you can take kids.

    I thought after last week's effort the AFL rated our game style MA15 😜

    In the little paper this morning Parkin talks about Mitchell

    If you cannot score you cannot win

    How simple how true

    Hope we can score better inside our F50 today

    I will cheer for those missing todays game

    Go Dees

    Whilst this week is by no means a write off, I'm really excited about next week. If we can get through today without any injuries then next week we could have a fit and firing Kozzie, Melksham with a game under his belt, Lever and May back together. All signs point towards a better showing

    🤔

    The Suns will come up out absolutely firing and will set the tone for the game quickly.

    We will be in the back foot from the first quarter and will put in a similar performance as North.

    I seriously thought we would have turned the corner from an effort and intensity performance after some rather dour displays last year. But after putting up that game in Round 2 of the season, I have huge doubT.


    Unfortunately in a long time I won't be at the G today. Heading over the border for a family birthday.

    But will be listening on the drive up.

    Hopefully the boys get the job done

    Wow the new site on mobile is amazing Very effective for viewing the gameday thread.

    Is there a Demonland app in development? Maybe that's the next frontier for DL

    It's a grey day, the low clouds glowering over the MCG as if they're unhappy with the rejigged game plan the Demons are playing.

    Another day of disappointment losing to a fanless interstate irrelevant club on our home ground


    Houston, we have season lift off? Wrong bloke here’s…

    I was so fuc%ing glad to see Carlton loose. Takes the pressure off us to rebound (or maybe the pressure off us supporters)

    For what it's worth I think we will win. We play the G better than the Suns and I'm backing JVR to do what chin did and have an elite game. Let's fuc$ing go Dees

    Did they loose or lose? I an a little confoosed


    Big game. Can't afford to drop another.

    Goody using extra strength deodorant today that's for sure. A fair bit of chewy being worked over in the coaching box.

    Some sweaty folk all about.

    So what's going to change short of some huge successful key forward miraculously falling from the sky.

    Dees by 3 goals.

    Wait. ...Gcs by 4 points.

    Hold the press.... Us by 5 points.

    Stop....Gold coast by 7 goals.

    Then again us by 4 goals.

    Oh who the hell knows. Anyone's guess I guess.

    Let's at least go down swinging this round as opposed to last week's week effort.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

      Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
