    If we’ve been refreshed by the break, and can find the big sticks more often than not, we are a slim chance. I know it’s a big IF, but I’m sticking with the “team we love”, cos I always do. Dees by not much! ❤️💙

    Like our backline structure. Don’t love our forward set up (but when have I) and will be able to see whether we have post bye learnings for our midfield based on the CBA mix during the first quarter.

    Best of luck to Jeffo who after a few soft kill 5 goal VFL games had his best big boy footy game in the VFL last game against Essendon VFL. Hopefully he takes that attack on the ball and demand on the lead into today’s game.

    I'm not confident at all. I know we've had 3 losses in a row and will look to bounce back, but so have the Suns and they'll be absolutely determined to not let this one slip.

    I think Max King will get a hold of May unfortunately and he could be on the chopping block at next week's selection.

    Suns by 37.

    I'm the opposite.

    I'm actually really confident about how well go today.

    We'll be as fresh as we're ever going to be given we're coming of our bye.

    Conversely, the AFL has done us a solid as the Suns are off a six day break and travel.

    And the suns gws game, which I watched, was a very intense, high pressure game with lots of arc to arc running so will be no easy thing to back up from.

    In terms of our method, we match up well against the suns I reckon.

    They have a leg speed advantage but i think our selection has in part looked to negate that advantage.

    I agree they will be desperate to win after 3 losses on the trot, but as you note so will we and I'm not convinced beng desperate to win nessarily translates to doing so (the Suns were desperate to win last week).

    I started reading this thread without knowing the Casey game was happening. I thought that Lurker had got a miraculous call up to the senior team.

    • 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.
