Season over for Freo, Pies resting quality players and still running rings around the opposition and here we are struggling to run out games and trying to learn a new game plan which has been around for years.

    The AFL being such an imagine conscious organisation, and one that is worried about a concussion class action, I bet they bring in some type of rule to stop players trying to run off the ground like Schultz did then. It wasn’t a good look.

    and given their propensity to suspend for outcome is the Freo player a chance of being suspended? And I’m saying this not because I think it worthy of suspension but who can tell what the MRO will do

    Heresy to admit this on Demonland but Collingwood are up to their necks in the premiership race. Elliott and Hill are arguably the best small forward combo in the competition.

    Kozzie do you really want to consider walking into this club called Fraudmantle?

    Think long and hard as Jacko is now!

    The Pies work off the ball is off the charts. That’s why they’re in so many games.

    and their precision field kicking to each other

    If Archer is suspended for 3 weeks then (Clarke was it?) also needs to go. He didn’t have to jump into Shultz.

    And I also am not saying it should be a suspension, but if players have to take ‘reasonable care’ then he has to be gone.

    No suspension. Both players were committed

    So much for my tip for Freo at home after the Pies outs. Freo Coach will be front and back page all week...

    Yeah, in Freo.
    The rest of the country doesn't care.

    • 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.

      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.
