McDonald should have been able to look up there to see hogan streaming toward him from the goalsquare. It's not hard Melbourne.

It also wasn't hard for him to hit ANB on the chest from 20 metres away either.  But yes, he should also have Hogan leading at him in that situation as well.

 

Hogan... [censored] me - Hogan is  Gen Z and some... wants to be all things. Mate, lead up from the square... you;ll be fine...

Its [censored] like when Reiwoldt (for Saints) would jag 7 marks on the wing... yer ineffectual up there fundamentally pal..

What an absolute disgrace.

 

What is with the rotation of Hogan and TMac. Just leave TMac deep forward and Hogan playing predominantly between the arcs.


How good is it that they've blown the budget and forgot to pack the umpires mic's. ?

ANB is the luckiest player ever and he better kick this goal.  He had a player running on the outside, ignored it and then got tackled.  Thankfully Razor is on hand to look after him.  Dumb play.... and he missed the goal as well.  Jesus.

He is a complete fn dud. Fit but no skill. 

 


remember 5 weeks ago, when we bitched about high scoring games on friday nights... *cough*

 

This is quite possibly the worst game I have seen.....and I've seen a few!

We should be.  Kicking for goal has let us down big time.  Everything else has been pretty good.

Our small forwards need to be on the ground for the dropped marks inside 50. 

We don't have small forwards. We have 22 midfielders scrambling around with no idea what their game role is.

utterly pathetic. 

 

if it was 7.6 at this stage - Freo would have folded and it would be a waltz with yer grandma... instead....

  • 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?
