Loads of empty Suns' seats.

AFL give them everything but they still can't draw a crowd.

Crowds are irrelevant at the end of the day

It’s about broadcast rights; 4 teams in NSW and qld are integral to that

    Suns look good buts Cats gave up on the flight up. Also easing into the year.

    Calling for Trac as an AA in the first half of the 0th round of the season is a bit premature.

    As bored as I was by last night’s game. Great start to Season 2026, AFL!

    I’m just annoyed that our scoring system doesn’t allow for both sides to lose.

    Something for Swan to work on for next year.

    I heard this and I’m definitely not a fan of it.

    Get fkd… that’s the pits.

    Footy is becoming a sport for people with ADHD, as fast paced as possible, music in between.

    They’ll add fireworks and fire in a few years like Big Bash league has, and use it after every goal.

    Made me smile when I saw that Buckley was Geelong’s new defensive coach as the Suns piled on the goals in the opening quarter

    Sooooo glad we didn’t pick him up as our head coach.

    So… we agree on this. I wasn’t sure since usually when someone agrees with me they don’t start their post with telling me to get fkd 😁

    Seeing the video of the Geelong box, with both him and Chris Scott looking all sulky is like 2 for the price of one!!

    Sorry. I was saying that in reference to the original poster saying we are doing that rubbish, and that was my reaction to it, not you! 😂

    I guess it’s never clear via message!

    This game might become interesting if the lead gets close to 100 points.

    If the lead gets beyond 186 points I’ll get Damian Hardwick’s face tattooed on my forehead.

    So trac on kings birthday last year could not hit a handball target in the dying stages but suddenly can kick 3 goals tonight.

    This Geelong team just looks so different, I know danger & cameron are missing but gee they look slow.

    Anyway game over & I've switched off

    You didn’t specify who would tattoo you, can I do it?

    For reference, my daughter has better drawing skill than me.

    Judas in a side that has taken 15 years to become good. The Man City of Aussie Rules. Just like how City were absolutely nothing as a club pre 2008, pre Arab oil money, the amount of aid and emergency help Gold Coast received from AFL handouts is nothing short of incompetence.

    I still don’t rate Man City as a club and I sure as hell do not rate Gold Coast either. If the AFL were the football/soccer model, Gold Coast would have died 5 years into their existence.

    3 votes, C Petracca. Superstar. What a joy he is to watch. Sucks it’s not in red and blue anymore.

    Still for the best to move him on, but jeez it sucks.

    Trac is playing at his absolute peak again. Absolute gun. Well done him, but very difficult to watch now. And all of a sudden he can kick (or is that a reflection on the lack of pressure from the Cats?) Getting a bit lippy too.

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

    • GAMEDAY: Gold Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back at the MCG and have a massive challenge ahead of them as they take on Premiership contender the Gold Coast Suns. What do you want to see from the Dees today?

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
