Shultz beats Warnock 1 on 1 and lines up for certain goal, kicks it. We are all over them in general play and inside 50 yet are only 4 points up now.

 

Jurrah gets it

Port 1.0.6

Melbourne 2.4.16

PA definitely have the wind though. Dermott also says that going to Port's end is a little easier as there is some sort of slope downwards.

Jurrah gets a HTB free kick. Wakelin says we're livelier and Port's crap.

Jurrah nails it!

Melb 2.4.16

PA 1.0.6

serious question here.... but why do players go straight to the bench after a goal?

Good pressure from LJ finishes it with a goal


Behind to Port

Port 1.1.7

Cale Morton marks 15 metres out on a slight ankle.

Brett Ebert has done a calf/achilles or something.

Morton hits the post, terrible miss.

Morton hits the post

Port 1.1.7

Melbourne 2.5.17


Warnock almost had his head 'pop off'.. will be an interesting one for the tribunal.... definately looked BAD but unsure of his view on the whole situation... Morton sprays it from inside 50 no discernable angle. Blast! Port 7 Melb 17 9.10 remaining in the first

Morton needs a big game today. Hasn't had the greatest 2010, to put it quite nicely.

52 disposals to 34 in our favour, 8 inside 50s to 5 in our favour as well.

Another goal to Port

Port 2.1.13

Melbourne 2.5.17

Scully sloppy handball results in turnover, goal mouth scramble and port goal...


serious question here.... but why do players go straight to the bench after a goal?

Because they've probably spent the previous 2 mins trying to find a break in play to run off so that they keep to their set rotations.

It's not ideal to have a player trying to make an interchange whilst the team is makig a F50 entry and as a result no one is there to kick it to (or there is one less to kick it to, or crumb).


Pearce goals, they're in front

Port 3.1.19

Melbourne 2.5.17

Ports forward line is providing no major problems for us, problem is ours isnt functioning that well either. This game is going end to end with no forward making an impact.

Port just kicked a goal, twas Pierce. Lets hope this doesnt ignite them. 3mins left in the first, port 19 melb 17

Lack of communication costly there on the wing, resulting in that goal to Pearce.

 

13 touches to Cam Bruce. If he's signed with GC it's a big loss

They're using the wind to kick over the top, rather than to a lead up forward. But we're turning it over a lot which is giving them pretty easy inside 50s.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
