Cats might pinch this! They have an amazing ability to tear home in the last 10 minutes of games!

So hawkins misses from 20 metres out. It just frustrates the hell out of me that he always performs against us. 

It wouldn't surprise me if this is a draw. 

But the hawks haven't kicked a goal this quarter. Clarko would be going nuts.

What does a draw do to us?

Makes us have to win 2 


As much as you can hate these teams they always put on a good show. 

2 weeks in a row geelong have had close losses.

Any specific reason why Whorethorn scoring dried up in the last Q, or was it just a momentum swing after the cats got a sniff?


In the dying moments I was praying “NO DRAW”!!!  When the Hawks stuck the last one, that settled the nerves.

Suck on that Cats. 

Selwood, Duncan choked under pressure

Thank god they didnt draw...  wow.   I was 100% sure they would just based on the fact its the worst thing that could have happened for Melbourne.


Can’t wait for these rule changes. Sick of watching this rubbish.

Their 2nd close loss in 2 weeks.

Should have been their 3rd in a row but we choked. They'd be dead and buried otherwise.

Wtf was that free to danger for??!?

In the back. But it should have been holding the ball against him before the hawk landed on him.  Furthermore it was very soft - plenty of more obvious similar in-the-backs not paid.


Can we lose all three - and make it?

mathematically

Geelong has played 6 games this year decided by 2 goals or less. They've lost 4 of them and won 2. Any guess who the 2 they've won were played against?

If we lose all 3 we dont deserve to make it.

from around half way through the last quarter Hawks looked like they were playing to save the game

Would need Geelong, North and Essendon to lose their last 2. 

So no.

  • 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?

    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?
