Their 50โ€™s look fairly open. Why does our always look so congested?

Yep itโ€™s a real puzzle, Champion Data measures us as the second fastest ball movers in the competition, yet we when we enter our F50, everyone else is already there?

Champion Data . . . talk about the emperor with no clothes.

Very few leads or movement too often, so opposition backmen guard grass. And going back 2022 - 2024, our forward gameplan was kick to contest, and get goals from ground balls or stoppages. I think the congestion is also a flow on from then.


The surface at the left end of screen is a bloody disgrace.

If anyone does a knee they should sue the AFL for allowing play in a substandard ground.

Ugh Iโ€™d forgotten how punchable Papley is.

Great footballer with great goal sense, but the worst over-celebrator in AFL history. Annoys the carp out of me.

Awww Harmesy and JJ ๐Ÿฅน

Commentators said it was due to an Andrea Bocelli concert and relayed turf

Weird thing is Bocelli said it looked fine when he left


Far out, that free against Darcy ๐Ÿ˜ก

Reckon itโ€™s just me but I donโ€™t mind Papley. Gets in peopleโ€™s faces and they fall for it. Love his energy and wish we had him

That concert was months ago though, what have the ground staff been doing?

Not much apparently

disgraceful maintenance, not like you donโ€™t get rain in Shydney

What a fantastic contest and massive pressure. And I have always thought that the jumpers of these two are a spectacular contrast especially at night - second only of course to Dees v anyone.

Chad Warnerโ€ฆ that was NOT a mark. Umps at it again

Their 50s look open because nobody can keep their feet โ€“ half of the players are lying on the ground.

BTW. Whatโ€™s happened to the SCG this week? Mario Lanza concert? Pavarotti? Caruso? Certainly looks like they have dug up half the ground. Couldnโ€™t be from that one 12 weeks ago? Were they radioactive?

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourneโ€™sย 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.
