DC, when were are good, it gives us hope.  When we are bad, it is generally down to  a lack of discipline.  I reckon at the moment that teams that are not doing well, pencil us in as vulnerable, if they, as the opposition, can put enough pressure on.  This is what we still have to learn.  Absorb the pressure and put it back on them.  Until we learn that, we will continue to lose games we should win, on a talent for talent basis.  This is what hurts at the moment and makes it difficult for us (supporters) to exorcise ghosts of the recent past.  

 

.........Now back to the Shiraz...............

    [censored] comparison. Tyson was poor today no doubt, but has no resemblance as a player to toumpas whatsoever. It's a lazy sledge.

    So many pessimistic bulldusters on this site. Get real how many of you ever got a kick or taken a mark or kicked a goal ( or a behind) ?

    Besides his game against Richmond he has been pathetic for a year and a half now, a 1 year wonder, time to be dropped. A half fit Oli would have been more serviceable.

    Ten to twelve TOUGH players out there for Port today( Tough as in non compromising, sacrifice type players). Three to four for us maybe.

    Dislike button would be nice for posts like this, Tyson has played 50 games, was playing well before missing a match with injury, he's a key to our future.

    As did Garland IMO

    I thought he played better. He is terrible one on one especially when the balls on the deck though.

    You're joking. Slow start to the year, but played well until his illness. Comparing him to Toumpas is a [censored] joke.

    We played poorly today, Kent picks when to turn up, Harmes wasn't sighted, Omac is too skinny to outmuscle opponents, etc. Will be interesting to see which Melbourne turns up next week against the Hawks.

    Dean is a lazy Kent. I counted 4 occasions in the first half when under no pressure he kicked it to the opposition. Not good enough - needs to correct his attitude at Casey.

    The only positive from the game was Maxie's return to form .

    Billy Strech and Hunt were also a positive. Hogan's contested marking is a thing of beauty. If he can eventually kick the ball as well as he marks it, he will be unstoppable

    He played as bad a game as i have ever seen from a senior player. His performance was laughable and quite comic in its execution or lack there of.

    I see Kent as a barometer of sorts - when the team is on, he's on, when the team is struggling he struggles. i reckon he's still got a bit too much of the previous era about him and has been relatively lucky to not be tarred with the same brush as Tapscott, Strauss, Blease etc. In my opinion the best game he has played was Richmond last year before he did his string. he looked on that night.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

    • GAMEDAY: Hawthorn

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
