Who gave Carlton a Friday night game? what a disgrace....

...not only that they've made a mockery of it by resting players.

    What's with this protected area rule.  At the start of the game PA marked and another PA player ran across the mark almost at right angles leaving a Carlton player marooned on the other side. The umpire told the Carlton player not to follow.  Admittedly he as far behind, but how far behind do you have to be to be stopped?

    How were Maclure and Eddie complaining about the white Carlton jumpers pre-game? They said that Carlton shouldn't have to change jumpers and that the home side Port, given Carlton's 150 year history, should have to wear an alternate strip. The sheer arrogance gives me the absolute shits. Melbourne is the original club and we don't crap on about all this rubbish. Collingwood have been irrelevant ever since Malthouse's last season and Carlton have been a basketcase for years now. These clubs should realise no one gives a [censored] about what they did years ago. They're bog ordinary nowadays.

    The Port 'faithful' are out in force... looks like a very good crowd considering the city of Adelaide loyalties.

    Bruce's talking up of Carlton is embarrassing .... the game is a mismatch

    Gee, Wines is still an ordinary, ordinary kick.

    This was a perfect opportunity for ch7 to bring forward Monday nights episode of MKR.

    In all fairness it's Ports home game so they have been given the fixture. Tomorrow night on 7 is Freo v nth. Another great game. 

    But what has happened to the Toump? He must have some talent or is he another Cale Morton #4 pick that shouldn't have been. Or because he was at our club during a horrible period did we drag any confidence out of him and just made it a bad time for him.

    Port are looking pretty ordinary. Should be much further in front.

    Blues would be a more attractive option in the futures market. Quite like their kids.

    Aside from Cripps they've got no young midfielders coming through. Their spine is okay, but they're in a bit of trouble. I still think Carlton are exactly the type of club to go out and try and get Clarkson, thinking he'll just win them multiple flags. They have a bigger messiah complex than us.

    I tipped the margin of 52 points for tonight. I think I'm gonna be well short.

    Going by the current score, I reckon they'll win by 60+. They just have to be more efficient with the ball and as the young blues tire, they'll run all over them. Port are a bunch of down hill skiers.

    When they spanked Sydney in Rd 1 it looked promising. Now that Sydney are 0-4 not so much...

    Downhill skiers is a bit of an early call but they still have the players imo.

    Their spine looks pretty good, do need another talented key forward to develop . And yep they need more centre square mids to assist Cripps. You'd think they'll have early pics in the next few drafts to add those types.

    They have form. Not much of their team has changed since it was true, so I'm happy to stick by that call.

    But they have SOS recruiting. They've got no hope. He's useless.

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
