I do love how much more pace we have in our side over these past 2 weeks. Frost, Hannan, Garlett, Spargo, are all pacy players who were dropped for next to no reason.

Especially on the MCG, we need players like this.

Oh god... Razor Ray is umpiring.

Glad I pay for WatchAFL and woke up early (UK) to watch a screen showing me how many minutes I'm missing

Same problem here. Fine for the Lions match, not for ours. Typical

Anti MFC commentators and Razor. Magnificent.


Don't know where JKH is gonna make his mark today but its not as a backman

Way into Q1 and Watch AFL hasn’t started working yet. !

Looking like this will be a massive scoring game. Two horrific defences.

 

Cmon Lewis thats 2 shockers in a row.

JKH opted out there. Soft. Sorry, if nothing else you MUST compete if you want to play in this side. Cards marked. Not a MFC player


Hogan looks off, big time.

Oh boy, MFC of old there.


That was a mark to Bernie.

And that ladies and gentleman is why Tom McDonald should not be a defender.

Hospital handpasses and kicks galore from both teams.


If u ever needed a reason to never play T-Mac down back....there it was!  Will Goody ever learn the basic does and donts!??

Letting some obvious frees going

Lazy, lazy, lazy.

We will lose if we keep this up.

Where is the intensity?

  • 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?
