Tough final five minutes to the term, but we held them relatively well, even if we had a little luck to go with it.

Midfield has been really good so far and I've liked the work of McDonald and Weideman up forward.

Hopefully those last five minutes were nothing more than a blip on the radar.

Fine for me. Though could have done without the getting up at 3.30 am part.

Weid has been good.

Gee Melksham makes a huge difference to our forward line.

Salem playing the backline general well I recon he is the replacement for Lewis.

    Not bad so far.

    Port regained their poise somewhat at the end but we made the most of our opportunities early. Nibbler needs to work on his set shots however.

    Sparrow looks like he belongs.

     

    Some nice work so far. A few cheap turnovers in midfield but we're getting busy. 


    Viney and Petracca not exactly making their presence felt.

    With May to come back, Frost would want to be stepping up.

    No, surely Oscar has to come under scrutiny.  He is rubbish and is ridiculously slow.

    Jones has done some good stuff.  Very much involved in the game.

    Yep, he's actually been really good out on the wing.

    For those trying to watch overseas- this link is working.

    That was pathetic defensive work from O Mac then.  Westhoff should never have marked that.

    Frost is incredibly frustrating

    He was stiff, though.  Ball was called out on the full and then he paid the push in the back.

    Umpiring howler - how can you pay in the back to a ball that has gone out on the full!#!

    Bad call. Soft call. But Jesus Frost is dumb to put his hands on his back for no reason.

    Frustrating

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
