    Give them the points now and be done with it.

    Chalk and cheese between the 2 teams.

    IN: May, Maynard, JKH, Hore, Dunkley, Weid, Lockhart

    If we want things to change, you have to do enough to force that.

    Brayshaw is a shell of his former self. If injured he must be put out to rest for the reminder of the season. If not, he needs time in the VFL to regain skills/confidence. Not sure who the hell you bring in instead. 

    If Melksham gets thru half a game in the VFL I would be tempted to throw him at FF next week. But probably risky and silly.

    So you want a 200 point thrashing? 

    May yes, Weid yes and Hore if fit. Sorry Maynard, JKH, Dunkley and Lockhart are VFL players

    Maynard could do Vineys job.

    Things can’t get much worse - a 200 point loss may be the agent for change 

     

     

    yeah nah it wouldn’t be good to be in the record books morw

    90 points will do

    Frost, Brayshaw and Harmes coughed it up when the game was on the line in the last five minutes. Out of those Brayshaw could be dropped but it just highlights the depths of our problems as we have far more worries than Frost and Harmes overall.

    If May doesn’t get up for the game we will surely let the Tigers kick 25+ goals. Lynch and Reiwoldt against Frost, Oscar and a barely fit Lever. May god have mercy on us all.

    It’s going to be...ugly

    I wonder whether it’s actually the Tiggas’ smalls that I suspect will destroy us

    Waiting to see how the magoos go tomorrow before thinking about changes

    But...

    IN: May, Weed, Dunkley

    OUT: O Mac, ANB, T Smith

    Brayshaw should go but I fail to see the point in playing Maynard or JKH, who are the only inside mids left

    What a glorious season it has been......

    other teams seem to be able to bring in younger player hungry for a chance, i dont see why we should not it is not as if they are replacing super stars. it is a game that we are going to lose make a statement as a coaching panel that if you do not put in then you will be replaced. Too many players are complacent in their role, getting good money for not doing a lot, they dont show the hunger or aggression that then need to show to play AFL football at the moment. does not mean they cannot recapture that form but they need to be pushed and pushed hard.

    What the hell is going on with KK? He needs games for the rest of year so we can understand whether he’ll be useful at all or yet another list clogger.

    Change in program classification perhaps for next week.

    Although it’s our home game, I think we’ll be outnumbered 10-1 in supporters. Whatever we gained from last year’s season in terms of our supporters attendance, we’ve receded it back to 2015.

    • 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?
