    C'MON DEES!!!

    and apart from a couple of bad errors in the 1st quarter they would be at least 2 goals closer...

    Only 1/2 time but so far Melbourne have put up a damn good effort....hopefully they can keep it up for the 2nd 1/2

    Forward pressure has died off in the second, but our pressure through the middle is great.

    Robbo going for the screamer and then GETTING UP and chasing the ball.... WOW! :o Not only was going for the mark the right thing to do, he did it without giving away a free kick and he backed-up his effort. Gold star for that one.

    The key here is to see whether we can keep it going for the whole match. Given that we have a few players who have missed out on full pre-season, or who are still quite raw (Morton, Aussie), it's going to be a big ask to play like this for 4 quarters. Still, that's what good teams do, and that's the only way to ensure we don't get smashed week in week out.

    I did not make it to geelong today but I have been watching it on tv. We lost but at least as u say they had a dip. If only they could reduce the unforced errors. That cost us particulrly the 2nd qtr.

    • 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.

    • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
