If anyone has come to the conclusion that Jordan Lewis is to blame for this then you need some serious psychotropic medication.

Although it is an expedient thing to have a whipping boy.

Another possible interpretation?

He’s having a shocker and he’s not on his own

    This is a very seasoned west coast side. 12 of them played in a GF. They have done their time. This is part of us doing ours.

    Much like the Pies last night all the bounces just seem to be going WC’s way. It’s the factor that you can never control.

    Could be a dangerous last quarter for Meth Coast.  They just want to preserve themselves.

    The game is gone, but I just really want us to physically hurt these FCKERS.  On the context of modern football history, I hate West Coast much, much more than I do Collingwood.

    That was a free to Smith in the goal square ....clearly pushed in the back after he kicked the goal.

    Brayshaw sums it up....

    We've bullocked our way through teams without a lot of polish, but turn up the heat and we sorely lack outside speed and clean hands

    We must recruit this in

    The most graceful thing Lewis could do would be to just King hit Nicholls and walk off.

    Nathan Jones and Lewis absolutely horrendous today. Jones 8 touches in 3 quarters (again goes missing) and Lewis has been so dumb it is alarming. Gawn 6 touches, Tyson and Milkshake 8 each, Weid and Frost way out of depth

    At least they haven’t extended their lead. I’ll take that at this point.

    Bounce of the ball is the least of our worries. We were smashed around the ball in the first half, fumbled, tackled with our arms instead of with the body...an all round diabolical half of football.

    To the melbourne fans that flew to perth well done on braving it out. My god I could not imagine how bad it would be for you all. 

    West Coast better bring the same intensity and pressure next week or I else I will be annoyed. 

    They just look so much bigger when they have Darling and Kennedy up there.

    Just not our day but at least we managed to kick some goals.

    I would enjoy giving that fat [censored] McGovern a bigger corkie. 

    Also Darling could use an accident smack to the head.

    At least we have added 66 games of finals experience to our squad.

    Totally agree been in the comp for two minutes and have been perennially successful. To see their supporters swanning around like they are on vacation make me pewk. I guess it what we deserve but they know how to rub it in.

    Thanks for trotting out the meaningless cliche, but by definition, luck is literally the bounce of the ball, being the thing I was referring to. Or do you think Darling’s skill ‘made’ that bounce?

    Exactly. It’s still been a very good and very productive season. Bring on 2019! ??

    You just could not expect that we would completely capitulate at every contest, every clearance, every forward entry, every defensive mark, every... thing, basically. It's almost farcical how much has gone wrong today.

    Reminds me of the disastrous GF against Essendon 

     

    Who was it retiring and went out with a bang?

    The aftermath of today will be crucial. The Club has to be tough on this. This preformance cannot be repeated. 

    We know what happens when it does

    Tough, yes, but also it needs to be a considered approach. By all means the point needs to be made that today’s performance is not worthy of a PF for a spot in the GF, but there needs to be constructive learnings come out of this to help us progress further, as opposed to overwhelming the playing group as a result of a day where we were overwhelmed, that would see us go backwards.

    its a bad end to a positive season, with 2 enjoyable finals wins, but the playing group need to attack pre-season with a hunger for more finals wins.

    Shows how important top 4 is.

    • 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.

      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?
