As much as Jack Grimes cost us the chance to get back in front, we were ALREADY behind when he stuffed up....courtesy of Nathan Jones

Why would you ever play on with half the opposition team around you when your teammate has won you a free kick in the final two minutes of the game?

I propse an Umpire review panel, I'm not blaming them for our loss mind you, we have dumb enough players to manage that on their own, but I'm fed up to the gills with poor umpiring, this year has been just out of this world in terms of how far backwards its gone. Players are held up to incredibly high scrutiny, umpires shouldn't be exempt. They should have a points system for blatent errors and suspesions for those that have too many points as well as carry over points. Make the maggots accountable!

All teams will say umps cost them or were against them, we see things from our teams perspective.

We lost the game, not the umps, not port.

Jones, stupid, stupid, stupid.

Dawes, stupid kick.

Grimes, dear god your kicking is woeful.

You owe us one Chris Dawes, stupid kick to no one, cost us the game. Grimes's kick wasn't typical Grimes

Not just to no one, back into the middle of the ground. Against Port Adelaide of all teams.

We had our typical 15-20 minute patch of low intensity where we leaked goals. We played excellent clean balanced football to get back into it and then over thought the game and gave them every opportunity to finish us off. That loss hurts because the way we finished with poor decisions and execution by senior players is so predictable its not funny. Great to see Tyson back in form and Jetta have another great game but that was the extent of it for me.

yep that Watts free in the 3rd was a shocker

Holding the ball was paid for some and not others - seemed to even up in the 2nd half though (cost a goal or 2 but hell it don't matter now does it umpire)

We're a better team but skills and decision making are lacking - coughed up the ball to easily and butchered scoring shots - there is hope we can keep improving there

That Dawes kick is forgivable as he put it to space for someone to run on to.... Grimes and Jones''s error were not forgivable

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w

    POSTGAME: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th
