I blame (in no particular order):

- The surface of Gosch’s Paddock

- The training staff 

- Jesse’s boots.

    It's his gait. I have been saying for a very long time.

    He walks and runs like a pregnant cow.

    He is bandy legged as well.

    He must be putting a lot of pressure on other parts of his body because of it.

    Trade him.

    No send him to the Richmond doctor.

    seriously we have seen the flaws In playing players with foot injuries. Put him out for the rest of this year it is not as though we are going to make finals let alone do anything. 

    We need him fit and firing in the first game of 2019, 2018 is already a bust.

    - ANB

    - Goodwin not being the right guy

    So he's been injured for the past 2 years.

    He's not a F-Forward.

    You forgot James Harmes' post-game interview. Definitely a major factor in Jesse's foot issues.

    I do find this potential injury interesting. Some have been saying he's been injured in the leg department for weeks, how come no scans beforehand? It's also interesting that his injuries seem fine when playing lesser teams like GC the week before and he moved around freely.

    Exactly.

    He looks a million bucks when we're beating up on GC and Brisbane.

    He looked injured to me last week at training. But I would have said it was a sore back. They were doing some sprints and he was well back and taking very short strides.

    But before hanging the medical department at the club I also thought Harmes looked like he had sore groins or hips. Harmesy was great on the weekend. Buddy doesn't train all week but gets up for the games. They say a lot of players are carrying stuff towards the end of the season. I don't know how it works.

    I would also add that Gawn looked fine jogging around the boundary and I'm sure the way Melk and Hibberd trained if Sunday was a final they both would have played. I don't think its fair to slander the medics coz it can be a pretty inexact science. Whos to say if Bernie had of played in the ones and Hunt in the twos both players would still be fine. Sliding doors.

    My back hurts even when I hear the word "sprint"

    • 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?
