    of course, they could have said "g'day" to each other a second earlier ... or the picture was hand picked to convey a certain message because, well ... newspaper sales thrive on controversy even when its confected.

    The picture was doctored to look worse than it was.

    There was not even a story based on the photo. The headline was it. I cant find the pic on HUN site, and my scanner is not big enough to fit the paper.

    It obviously does not matter to the Hun that Jimmy and Bails might have had a conversation before and/or after the photo was taken. Not that I saw the incident (for want of a more appropriate, insinuation-free word), but a picture can tell a thousand tall tales.

    The pic is meaningless.

    It could have been taken in 2008 for all we know, but assuming it's from yesterday, it's still only a snapshot in time that has been chosen to tell a story that is blatantly untrue.

    Only fools would read any more into that photo.

    What a complete [censored] summation of the picture

    Maybe a more apt OP would be: "says it all without THINKING"

    What does it say? i dont think Jim is going to portray his feelings especially as you are suggesting so openly with camera's photographers around....

    The headline reads: "NOT A GOOD LOOK, DEES" and then "No one was happy after another dirty day, especially the president and the coach"

    There is no actual story. It is the front page of the Sport section.

    it has the current sponsors all over Baileys top, i would suggest it was taken yesterday

    Bailey would know he is gone. It's going to be impossible for him to stay until the end of the year. The club would be speaking to people right now. What they have to do is try and handle the situation with some dignity.

    OUT: Bailey, Connolly, Royal, Williams and a few others

    IN Roos and co. needs to happen in about 10 weeks time.

    We'll finish close to bottom this year, again.

    Saw it and was going to post a thread. The picture really said it all, Jimmy showing what the club stands for in standing tall and being courageous with Dean returning from another squib performance.

    Time is fast running out for Dean Bailey

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
