There is great joy in watching two arrogant clubs which tried to bulk-buy their way into finals each taking turns at being thoroughly crapulent.

If only Adelaide was playing in this game too. Then I could watch every non-Melbourne supporting member of my extended family feel bad in one glorious night.

No noise of acclamation at the Adelaide Oval tonight. The Bombers lead frees 12 to 6.

That’s because Essendon are everyone’s second favourite team. Even the umpires. 


They continue to talk up Essendon but they are 8-12 at best.

Could never understand the hype but not to worry they will get the prime time games again next year

But wait a minute, wasn’t everyone at the start of the year talking about how well Port had recruited?

Ollie Wines is slowly becoming an overrated player for me.

Give me Angus Brayshaw every day of the week.

I REALLY want the cats in the first week, I feel like beating them in the finals would exorcise some demons for us 

Sooo let me get this straight... Dons can’t play finals and Port have a chance to go into the 8 and how Cats lose... 

Port look terrible and Ess are over celebrating!

This would be the best game i've seen Essendon play this year.

Agreed 100%.

If he was a Melbourne player we would be pulling our hair out at his poor foot skills and lack of speed.   Covers the ground like a turtle.

CATegorically.

Me too.

Finally, Viney would get to play them in 2018.

Boy, wouldn't it be funny if Essendon win and it turns out we would've made finals regardless of losing our last two games? ?

Poor old Watts. Would be lucky to get a game at Casey the way he is playing. Looks to be totally uninterested in going anywhere near the ball unless it lands in his lap. Doubt he’ll get another contract.

I’m just so glad that for once the destiny was in our hands and we were good enough to make sure of it without having to rely on other results.

Yeah but we are getting much needed relaxation!

Ridiculous.  It’s Wines v Toumpas as the comparison. 

Brayshaw is a champion. And so is Ollie Wines.

God, I hope he gets another contract.

 

Imagine all the nuffies on here calling for us to recruit him as a delisted free agent if he doesn’t!

  • 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?
