Looking not so good... port goal. We are providing no backline pressure. Game over. Unless a total mindshift... cancell that, 31 points now. Done and dusted

Goal to Hitchcock. This is over now IMO.

13.5.83

7.10.52

One of the rare games this year where our defence is being beaten in most match ups. No midfield pressure either.

Port goal, up by 31 points... I thought we had become a club that cares about things like milestones, important games etc but obviously the minds are already on post-season... How disappointed Junior must be in this horrible effort

 

Game ovahhhhhh.

cannot win a f%^ing contest on the ground

Haven't scored in the last 10 minutes, since Jurrah's MOTY. And probably only 1 or 2 inside 50s in that period. It's all Port. Gonna have to hope this is all the wind and we can come home strong but I can't see it happening.

 

Bar a minor miracle mark this one down in the loss column.


Hardly hearing the names Green Moloney Jones Frawley ... What's going on ?

What a disgusting way to send off our captain in his 250th game.

We should be ashamed of our efforts. We've had such a good season and we're just throwing it all away with this effort. Truly pathetic, and we will never ever be any good until we learn to win interstate.

Listening to the game on the AFL site and it's the same old carp we serve up every time we go interstate and in particular to Adelaide. We are always going to be run of the mill until we can do better there. Port are a pretty ordinary side and they are making us look even worse. To be down by 37 points is pathetic.


Don't want to overreact and say a single game can ruin the impression of a season... but geeez it's close to doing that for me

No inside 50s, overusing the handpass due to being pressured by Port, defence is being beaten one-on-one which is Port's method of manning us up.

Jamar 3 disposals.

Bennell 5

Green 10.

Trengove 11.

Bartram 12

They're stopping us from zoning off and helping each other out by manning us up and spreading us.

Goal again to Schulz. Warnock's been killed.

15.5.95

7.10.52

Crap.


if this is the MFC for 2011, it is going to be another half ass year coming up :(

Only listening to the game, but my impression is we are being outcoached... anyone watching it? does it seem that way? Sounds like Primus has had answers for everything and Bailey has no ideas.

Yep, that's over-reacting.

This game is terrible, goes alongside West Coast and North Melbourne as our worst of the year. The margin could yet be our worst for the year. But we've made so many gains this year, to say one game late, with players out, with a young side, on the road, defines our year, is wrong.

Newton finally does something, but misses the goal.

Nothing to do with the coach

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
