Hope we get smashed by 100 points. Until we do Goodwin is going to just continue going through the motions.

Where's Jayden Hunt?? Hasn't touched the ball for 3 weeks now

I’m as annoyed as you rusty about where we sit however your shotgun approach to the issue may not be as effective as you think in correcting the situation.

Watch the players Coach and tell me they are playing for Goody.  Most running at half pace and watching.  The radio says our two leaders laying virtually zero tackles over matches not just today amd looking disinterested???

They are saying this is the weakest Pies team fielded for the year yet they are just waltzing away from ground ball contests.

The club scored off the most from turnovers.  Easily the equal worst skilled team in the AFL alongside the GC rabble.

Club is a joke and we are back to being the irrelevant laughing stock of the league that we were pre-Roos.

Cant maintain possesion for more than about 20 min of footy.  No possession tempo game.  Most players looking to give off to "anyone" and not take responsibility.

Dress it up however you like... we are shizen and Goody has taken us there.

    I thought what Maynard did then was going to be paid as fifty at the start of the year. Ran over the mark and then engaged the player. Thought they wanted the players unrestricted to be able to play on

    We're not going to play finals this year if we keep playing footy like that.

    May, Salem, Lever, Hibberd, Jones - total 0 tackles. Troy Chaplin should be held to account for this backlines pressure 

    Petty the only one willing to fly the flag!!

     

    Classic Petracca, gone missing after half time

    Are you referring to the red and blue one?  Or the white one that we seem to be using on a regular basis.

    One more full preseason will surely knock that out of him.

    • 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?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      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?
