What georgiades can do & how he plays is what i want to see van rooyen do

Well you won’t see it this week because he has been dropped, again. Give the poor guy some continuity, as a forward, to see what he has.

    There are so many parallels between the Deez and Carltank, it's both uncanny and horrifying. Our list is in slightly better shape, but unless we take more radical remedial action on the list, and the FD, we'll be them soon enough. And they are starring into the abyss which is playing centre half-forward and has just kicked its fifth for the quarter.

    Oh come on, surely you are kidding! In the first 5 rounds, he took 5 marks....total! He was rightfully dropped, never set the world on fire in the twos and has been very ordinary since. Deserves to be dropped again, at the moment he offers very little

    Except the Port player is mobile, knows where to be to get the ball, and can take a mark or two.

    One difference ... I'm glad we've got Kozzy Pickett and not Jesse Motlop.

    Funny you mention Jesse Motlop. I watched the Carlton game with 2 mates. One's Filth, the other Norf. Ask asked each other the hypothetical question: how many players would you want out of Carlton. at our respective clubs. The Pies guy, who I'm pretty sure is a retired spook, said he wouldn't want any of them near Collingwood. The Norf guy nominated Weeta, Curnow and some c-grader. I nominated about six guys, including Motlop. I might be wrong, but recon he has some serious upside for a 21 year old.

    Imagine if we decided to drop players because of bad kicking.

    He's actually out with hamstring tightness from training during the week

    Struggle getting into games played at the SCG. The ground is joke-size.

    Carlton's list management is amazing. How the hell did Carlton let Kennedy go?

    He was good at GWS as well. Probably more to do with Voss as coach.

    The kicking inside F50 in the Swans v Dogs match is insane. Brilliant to watch. Some of the field kicking is similar.

    Their 50’s look fairly open. Why does our always look so congested?

    And even more to the point, how the hell he's not running around with us?

    Gawn would love these umpires. Grundy did the exact same thing against him for no frees.

    Yes obviously the umpires had a forensic session on blocking in the ruck during the week and rediscovered the rule, although I must admit I couldn’t see what Grundy was doing that he and others haven’t been doing all season. But it’s cost him 3 blocking frees against in centre bounces.

    • 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.
