    Not sure what to read into this.

    Is Geelong better than people thought?

    Is Collingwood worse than people thought?

    If I had to pick one, I'd pick the latter.

    LOL at the poor Colli-flogs going up with their Colling-woooood chant 6 mins early, not scoring again, then copping the Gee-looooong chant in return at the end.

    I see where you are coming from but I think you are wide of the mark on this. Regardless of the circumstances that led to this the Richmond guy lays into a defenceless guy lying on the ground.

    He deserves to go for major assault charges. And if the victim won't press charges the police should.

    Read his comments re Rances injury.

    Tells you a lot

    Should be banned for that alone

    Howe shanked 2 kicks in that final term. I enjoyed seeing the pies lose by under 10 points again. Worst part is, is seeing Lingy swoon all over the cats boys.

    For us next week I think is a good result. The filth were pathetic tonite and Geelong hardly any better. Skills were dreadful.

    I thought the 666 rule at the end worked well when Geelong couldnt flood back at the bounce after their goal with a few minutes to go.

    It was a great game... but for Collingwood being hot favourites and the "greatest midfield of all time" against a geelong team with 4 debutants there would be a bit of a cause for concern there..

    Degoey cost them the game all he had to do was turn and kick a goal, not sure what he was thinking

    So now Collingwood have choked in the dying moments of their last 2 big games at the G. 

    Eddie must be happy. ?

    Very, very early days... but Richmond and Collingwood both looking vulnerable.

    • 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?
