NAB CUP 2: PORT ADELAIDE

Featured Replies

Sounds like another ripper goal from Sellar to bring us back to life.

 

If Sellar can bring this form up forward in the early rounds it will be huge.

 

When was the last time someone kicked more than 5 goals for the dees? Because Sellar is on track.

 

Here's a surprise, Gillies has 12 possssions!

Like Sellar this bloke will be handy if he can play well - I also think Jetta could be handy down back

Considering the selected side. This is a good effort.

Thanks for the updates guys. I cannot pick up any streams of the radio...(Perfect Weather!!!) or is it vodaphone? Grrr


Like i mentioned before we need our possession rates up. Its the same story as last year. We hang on for a bit but eventually the weight of disposal = opposition scoring. Fair enough its a fairly weak team, but port aren't playing a first class side either.

It's clear that the Neeld heirachy do not rate possessions highly. The emphasis is on contested possessions, tackles and clearances. we are winning two of that three.

Kents my man!


can anyone explain what happened with that interchange non-50 meter debacle

It sounds like the infringement was called and then they realised they had it wrong and called it back again. I actually like that. I wish more umpires had that sort of integrity.

Jetta with 16 possessions. Playing well.

So lovely to see Sellar has finally delivered the goods. it vindicates Craig's judgement!

Rubbish. He spent 4 years with Swan and Pendlebury. He rates possessions, he just doesn't have quality mids.


They have 11 players with 10 disposals, or more, and we have 5.

It's been the same for years.

I count PA with 12 players with more than 10 and Melbourne with 11 players. Our stats are lower, but its not as diabolical as you suggest.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • 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.
