Which results favour the Dees in Round 10?

All the lower placed teams. That keeps us within touch of the 8 if we can perform, or hands us a higher draft pick if we can’t.

not sure it matters much but I think we need say 6 teams to pull away that then leaves say 8 teams vying for the last two spots.

The top 4 seem to be pulling away but who are 5th and 6th in the formula I'm not sure.

My enthusiasm may return after the bye if we win two out of the next three.

PS: On further thought Richmond is probably the fifth team but not sure who is sixth.

How is Ken Hinkley still in a job? Zero effort from port. He has not been able to instill consistency over 6 years with a talented list


That was a dangerous tackle against Stratton? Poor Tim Smith then.

Port fans have wanted him gone for a while.

 

So the dogs get in front after being 5 goals down and then nth kick the next 4 to win. at least Brad will go out with a win. But gee the dogs have fallen down. 

So now nth have jumped us. We obviously need to win tomorrow.

The season is but young,  'DD'.

Port imv,  are still a front running side.  Let them off the leash,  and they can play.  A but like us between mid 90's,  and 2013... 

Keep a tight reign on a front runner,  and they will choke on the pressure.

 

We've done that on many an occasion,  in our past.

Imagine how good Josh Kennedy could be if he wasn’t a hunchback. Or maybe he’s good because of the hunch.

Plays on intuition?

Notre Dame burnt down. No wonder he's not himself. He needs some time away from the game to see if Esmeralda is okay.

Win tomorrow and we are just 1 game (and a lot of %) from 7th spot.

Good result with the Eagles winning

If we could win the next two there would be a case for optimism.

Need Richmond to belt the Bombers

 

We should play in the Dreamtime game.......we dream more than any other club.

McAdam is a hopeless boundary rider commentator.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    Hands up if you thought, like me, at half-time in yesterday’s game at TIO Traeger Park, Alice Springs that Melbourne’s disposal around the ground and, in particular, its kicking inaccuracy in front of the goals couldn’t get any worse. Well, it did. And what’s even more damning for the Melbourne Football Club is that the game against St Kilda and its resurgence from the bottomless pit of its miserable start to the season wasn’t just lost through poor conversion for goal but rather in the 15 minutes when the entire team went into a slumber and was mugged by the out-of-form Saints. Their six goals two behinds (one goal less than the Demons managed for the whole game) weaved a path of destruction from which they were unable to recover. Ross Lyon’s astute use of pressure to contain the situation once they had asserted their grip on the game, and Melbourne’s self-destructive wastefulness, assured that outcome. The old adage about the insanity of repeatedly doing something and expecting a different result, was out there. Two years ago, the score line in Melbourne’s loss to the Giants at this same ground was 5 goals 15 behinds - a ratio of one goal per four scoring shots - was perfectly replicated with yesterday’s 7 goals 21 behinds. 
    This has been going on for a while and opens up a number of questions. I’ll put forward a few that come to mind from this performance. The obvious first question is whether the club can find a suitable coach to instruct players on proper kicking techniques or is this a skill that can no longer be developed at this stage of the development of our playing group? Another concern is the team's ability to counter an opponent's dominance during a run on as exemplified by the Saints in the first quarter. Did the Demons underestimate their opponents, considering St Kilda's goals during this period were scored by relatively unknown forwards? Furthermore, given the modest attendance of 6,721 at TIO Traeger Park and the team's poor past performances at this venue, is it prudent to prioritize financial gain over potentially sacrificing valuable premiership points by relinquishing home ground advantage, notwithstanding the cultural significance of the team's connection to the Red Centre?

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    After kicking the first goal of the match the Demons were always playing catch up against the Saints in Alice Spring and could never make the most of their inside 50 entries to wrestle back the lead.
