Pendlebury said What? about Jesse

Featured Replies

I'm just excited when our team manages to kick more than 100 points in a game.

Lets start there and then aim for bigger things.

 

It's been a while since a key forward has kicked 100, who and when was the last one?

Just watching the YouTube highlights of his 44 goals and it made me realize that it wouldn't be a massive surprise or step up for him to double his output.

That puts him at 88 goals.

its not that many short of 100.

And he did that in around 8 minutes.....

talking of coleman medals

has anyone won the coleman medal where someone kicked more goals for the season?

i'm talking about where someone kicked enough goals in the finals to surpass the coleman medallist's tally at end of home and away

Home and away only isn't it? But good question, has that ever happened?

Buddy did it last. 08 I think... He was 21 or so, so it was a while ago.


If Hogan kicks 100, we're absolutely playing finals football next year.

Not sure if Pendles has really thought this through - unless, of course, he was also saying Melbourne, as a club, is the big mover next year and it's finals bound.

I'd like to see Jeffy G kick 50 next year. And I reckon if he can kick straight, he will.

I'm sure it happened during the Dunstall/Ablett/Lockett/Modra days.

  • 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?
