Actually I think everything he has done tonight has been OK. All his disposals have been clean and have gone to a player in a better position. Not a game changing performance by any means but not woeful. 

I've lost count how many times thats been said about him over the journey.

Hes a 171 game veteran, and yet still plays like a 2nd year player.

    Bombers massively overrated by media. Have had a charmed run meeting injury depleted sides for their “best wins”. GWS, WCE, Port, even Sydney were missing plenty. Not to mention Richmond last week. Ladder absolutely reflects where they are at.

    Cameron Ling writing us off in the finals due to lack of experience, and the Cats can go deep in September but hes not being biased he said.....

    Well he has gone to the "Channel 7 finishing school" to be able to come out with waffle like that. Biased my foot. Stupid, stupid comment only outdone by his looks.

    He was also one of the lowest ranked players on the field. His career is running on fumes now unfortunately. This will be his last contract.

    Potting Watts, Motlop and Rockliff is barking up the wrong tree

    Port have a massive cultural issue with the likes of Wingard, Gray, Westhoff and Dixon

    Selfish footballers who never, ever involve teammates

    It might be Watts' last contract, ever, but Hinkley needs to take charge now or he'll be gone too

    With Ports loss we are now guaranteed to play in September. Well done boys. 

    Say what???

    Port could have won by 40 goals and they still wouldn't have made it. 

    Geelong were the only ones with any interest in that game and I doubt they were even watching.

    So it turns out our drought-breaking, finals-securing win was the 90+ point win over Gold Coast two weeks ago. Sure didn't feel like it at the time.

    Imagine we lost last week and tomorrow, most likely 4 teams would miss finals on %. Crazy year!

    You obviously didn't notice Westhoff mark 30 out on an angle, but clearly gettable, pass to Ryder straight in front, but a bit further out.

    Westhoff had 5 goals at the time and that would have been number 6 for him.

    The Hoff and Robbie Gray are two of the most unselfish and brilliant players in the competition

    Westhoff in particular is severely underrated everywhere outside of Alberton

    Port’s midfield is very one-paced outside of Polec - and it looks like he’s definitely on his way to North for their first round pick, which they are desperate to get rid of so that they aren’t forced to pay ‘overs’ for Tarryn Thomas

    Goddard - anyone?  It’s not beyond reality. He is still very good. 

    As our runner. He'd be great at delivering the messages.

    Goddard to maybe the Blues or GC,  but nowhere else IMO.

    Oh well BJ won't get to star in his premiership movie he said would be written after the drugs saga.

    Hird can now stop predicting essendon can win the premiership.

    No, I only watched snippets of the yawn fest

    My post is based on long term observations and actions, not one incident

    Posters are bagging out Watts, et al, but their cultural issues run deep

    Ports mid-field was seriously exposed. 

    With Leuenberger off the field, Ryder should have had a field day with Stringer as his opposing ruck.  But there was no-one to hit it to.  Incredible. 

    Ollie Wines not sighted for most of the match.  Wingard doing anything but kick the ball.  Gray looking for the season to end.  If it wasn't for Westhoff kicking 5 the result would have been very, very ugly......and we don't want to give the drug cheats that much hope for next season.

    Incorrect. Geelong is likely to win, therefore if Port were to win by 150 and we were to lose by 150, they'd have come in for us. It went right down to the wire.

    OK you got me there Prada....  But I think it would have to be closer to dare I say it 186 each way lol. 

    Our +/- is over 500, Ports is just over 100!

    Freo, please show some pride and avenge last weeks woeful performance. 

    Nobody, I repeat nobody, wants the Pies to finish top 4 and everyone wants Melbourne to steal 4th spot from them.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
