I’ve gone:

Collingwood

St Kilda

North 

Geelong 

GWS

Eagles

Bulldogs 

Richmond

Port

Bar horrible umpiring, I think Richmond v Brisbane and West Coast v Hawthorn will be crackers.

I think the AFL has done a good job in giving Brisbane 2 matches this week considering their non-existent injury list.

They have a 15 hour break between games and a short flight to the west. They better not whine.

I think the top 4 will be interesting. I expect Brissy will get done by Richmond and West coast will beat Hawthorn. This is where % will play a part. between w/c and brissy. I hope Brissy get a home final but may have to play the eagles over there.

This round is big in the South Australian context.

Could see the demise of one if not two coaches.

I reckon Hinkley has more to worry about. We’ll know by the end of Port’s game whether or not the players want him gone or not. 

On another note, from a reliable source I was told that at the start of the season, the Fremantle players were all told not to expect to play finals this season. Odd.

Filth v drug cheats. Not watching/listening, nor checking the scores.

Who do I want to win? It would be like choosing between typhoid and cholera.

Dropping like flies at the G and what in the world was Varcoe thinking there? He was 5 metres out.

yep very strange

Was a nice high scoring game for a while and now...nothing

Much as I hate to say it, Drugsters being screwed by maggots.  

How was that a 50 to Moore when he actively tried not to take the returned ball?

Clearly we need to either get bigger louder crowds, or buy an amplifier to shout “baaaallllllll” whenever we lay a tackle even if it is disposed.

It was paid  for abuse

Geez we are going well in the cricket. 

English are 6/49. 

Go Aussies. 

It's like neither team is trying to win this. Constant misses this quarter.

Football sucks, I can’t believe both these teams are going to be playing finals. 

If these sides are playing finals   well we don't need to improve that much.   Well I know we do need to improve but both these sides are terrible, just shows how lowly we played    Not looking forward to tmorra


This side is in the top 4 right now. Putrid stuff. Is that the quality of the competition right now?

Have we dragged the others down?

That's a good question. 

Two weeks ago a decimated Melbourne side played Collingwood at the same venue and lost by 17 points while, last night, an equally decimated Essendon lost by 11 points last night. 

The Demons had 18 shots at goal to the Pies 20. Last night it was the Bombers 15 to 26 and yet they are in the finals, the Pies can still make top 4 and we're way out of it. The other teams have had their share of injuries of late but they haven't been blighted by them the way we have.

In a way, it sums up the season for us.

 

If only essenscum had lost last week or to nth or Sydney.  They would have missed finals probably.  Hopefully they go out week1. 

Hopefully Richmond and west coast win and knock the pies out of the top 4

Ryan and Rioli, both so exciting to watch, both electric and skilful. We don’t need one small crumbing forward, we need two.

  • 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?
