For anyone that cares.

Although the fact that this was announced 5 hours ago, I don't think anyone does.

So we have to wait till the final game of the year to be put out of our misery.

    I'll be there. They will shut level 3, and restrict seating on level 1. It will be joyous.

    Oh WJ you beat me to it!

    I hope the tv stations run with "that one day in September" as the promo.

    No surprises. The two least inspiring and under-performing sides in the competition get the worst timeslot. It's a WB home game, so no great loss to us when nobody shows up. Plus it's a charity win to the doggies at Etihad.

    I hate this timeslot but will probably be there. I would love to see some spirit and effort by the team to see out the year. I actually think its an important game for the Dees. If Craig can get them up for this one thne we are half a chance.

    I wonder what the record low attendance is for a game at Etihad? Could be in trouble. Probably break the record for two Melbourne clubs at least.

    wrong

    the afl has decided to end the Essendon f.c and all of their supportrs have been split into 2 groups

    the ugly ones with facial hair will be drafted into the western bulldogs

    the rich ones will be drafted into the kangaroos , that way the roos fans can see what money really looks like

    this will be the afl level playing field critereum

    so after these new mini drafts the doggies will have a lot more supporters, hence a bigger gate

    • 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?

      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?
