It's a shame things didn't work out for him at North. I've seen him a few times at the Cherry Tree down in Cremorne and the Denis The Menace cafe round the corner. I think he has a golf apparel business with his brother that should keep him busy post AFL. 

Sports equipment business in the parental family as well. They’re good people. All the best post footy, Dom, and thanks for your service at the Dees during a tough period. Will always remember his big last quarter snap from the southern Punt Rd. corner at the MCG when we beat the Hawks for the first time in whenever. Hope he can get around the boys now.

    I will always remember the pivotal role that Dom played in that amazing first up win at the Adelaide oval. He was a valuable pick up for the time in that he was ready to go straight into the team and make an impact. Importantly when Roos brought him over he made it clear that Dom was expected to play his role, nothing more. 

    Thanks for your time at the Dees, hope he gets on us for the finals!

    Thanks to chronic injuries. Come off it Joe, you knocked him even when he had good games.

    No I didn’t . If he played well I acknowledged it.

    I don’t play favourites.

    Given my display name, I feel obligated to post in this thread and I'm disappointed that I haven't already done so. 

    Really rated Dom when he was at his peak and played a good role for us, still remember that goal against the Hawks in 2016 which helped to break that run of losses to them. 

    hope he gets another shot at it if he wants to. 

    Thanks for everything Dom!

    Sparlie Chargo?

    I've been heavily considering Meven Stay or Gax Mawn, but Sparlie Chargo now has to be contemplated.

    It did work out. We got him during his best years, he was a valuable contributor during the rebuild, we continued to build after he was traded out, and he got a much longer career than the average AFL player.

    Only pity for mine is he couldn’t quite notch up 100 games for the club.

    Sorry Nasher. I meant for him. I liked him, hence the 'Dom' in Domgus Petrogan.

    Should stick with a midfielder in honour of Tom Dyson. I suggest James Jordon - which will then become James Jordon

    Harking back to an earlier era ... Flobbie Rower

    That is one name that should be respected. How about Darl Citterich instead. Both champions, sadly Robbie was taken too early. Imagine if we had him on one wing and Langers on the other.

    Yeah I realised that. I  didn't mean to sound like I was having a go at you it's just that Flower was such a special player and he's gone like Wight and Stynes.

    • 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?
