Jeffy bashing on here today is over the top.  He has done a few bad things but he is certainly not alone there.  At least he is having a crack.

Trac trying his guts out and having an impact, but how the hell did he kick that so badly.

Fairly happy with Stretch's game today.

Harmes really working hard and had a good last half of that quarter.

How good is Max Gawn... we would be five goals further behind if it wasn't for his marking behind play alone.

COME ON DEMONS.

Apart from that horrible set shot, Petracca has looked dangerous all game.

He’s got the yips when the pressure is on. Needs a psychologist for his goal kicking.

With that ball drop he did well to make contact!

His best game all year

Dangerous at ground level

Awful set shot, but otherwise good

5 possessions, 1 tackle, 1 behind at the half.

Sadly that probably does qualify as a good game for him.

At least Jeffy is getting the ball, pretty big step up

GLASS HALF FULL for a minute... If we can hit a few targets and then finish a couple of opportunities then it's a big improvement 

But hard to fathom how bad our skills have been WT complete F !!

If a 5 disposal half with one of those being a shonker kick at goal his best all year then we well and truely are up [censored] creek.

I actually think Petracca is been decent (not great, but decent) most of the year. He was terrible and fumbly last week, but most other weeks he has actually had really nice touch. Needed to kick that goal though.

 

What is it with Jones and wanting to nail a player 45m away amongst other players by foot and kicking off one step?! 

He does at least 2 of them every match and turns it over. Stop doing it mate, it doesn’t work and it’s horrible that a supposed leader of our club continues to do it!

I'm really concerned with Hibbo's disposal as well. Still terribly out of form. Last year his penetrating kicks out of defense set put a lot more pressure on with transition. We need it back.

Percy Jones ball drop

Am I missing something?

Perracca 5 possies and can’t kick a simple shot.

ANB 4 possies and 10 fumbles.

Worst footy I have seen in years.


I don’t like to bag players too much but I’m really not sure what ANB contributes. Hope he has a big second half but he is so fumbly. Just runs around doing nothing

the mac brothers ,fair dinkum at least try

Rohan Bail and Sam Blease used to also try. At this rate the Mac brothers are done.

Wouldnt even get a trade for them these days.

I find the Jeffy commentary pretty funny. He’s made us look more dangerous going forward than we have all year and people want him gone.

The decisions and execution will come as he gets game time. He’s getting to the right spots and doesn’t move like treacle. Two things we desperately need.


Oh for the days when Tom Mac used to knock off an easy 4 or 5 goals a game.

 

What has happened to T Mac??

he is playing like Herman Munster!!

has to have multiple injuries

  • 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?
