Oliver and Brayshaw Lift!

Our new recruits look above our normal class and effort which is positive.

Don't worry horse, we'll drain that out of them in no time.

Despite the woeful first half, if we’re still in the game at 3/4 time, I think we’ll run over the top of them

The scary thing is we are still in the game. I don't think we could be much worse than we have been. Viney is the only one that can hold their head up high. Our pressure is non existent and we have fumbled and been careless with the ball. Is it time to drop Brayshaw he's been pathetic.

pickett looks good, a few better signs but need  alot more effort.  Im not sure if its the system the coach wants to play or our players are dumb but we really suck at times.

My mates in our messenger group:

“How funny was that“

“Who is that Gumby in the back line”
 

 “There he is”

no guesses Who they’re referring to. 

 

They look totally flat. 
 

I think the decision coming before the game got inside our heads. 
 

They probably don’t believe it/not focused. 
 

Just going through the motions. 

Players look too hot and bothered. Someone please give them some silk fans.

Simply too slow for our gameplay.

We know it's going to come in quick with the way we play. I've never been a fan, but I'm sure another team (or a different game plan) would suit him much better.

Given we are flush with inside mids who can butcher the ball, why not trade him?

Gotta give something to get something.

Yet West Coast are switched on.

The opposition always fire up

We don’t. 
 

Stop with the MFC excuses

This is actually a quintessential Goodwin coached game. Still holding on for dear life to a 2018 gameplan. We don't know whether we're coming or going.

Spargo and OMac definitely have some compromising photos of Goodwin... 

Charlie having another blinder

2 x kicks to eagles palyers

1 x kick missed the target

1 x 50 metre penalty

Oh and 1 mark

I will go to the grave, hopefully soon if this is the best we can do afetr a solid pre season, not understanding how he gets a game. He is a project player that was unsuccessful- time to move on

We got rid of Frosty & kept OMac. FMD.

OMac has actually been one of our better players! Take off the blinkers.

With our superior fitness, can't see us losing from here.

Your right I will turn it off as well !

Difference between a truly professional organisation and ours Clint. They don't accept mediocrity, it's seemingly all we know.


Gawny appears to be protecting his knee. He has no spring and is avoiding contact with man mountain Natanui.

I don't blame Max. One game is not worth getting injured for, but the ease of WC clearances from the centre has killed us just as much as our witches hat game plan.

Disappointing. I was hoping to watch this game fir the next 10 weeks. Can't even watch it for the next 10 minutes.

The players can now see where they are at compared to a Top 6 team. Miles off the skills required.

 

looking at the brights side, all recruits except Brown at this stage, playing well. Kossie is a Jet. And i put $10 at 11:1 on Viney to get +30 disposalsdisposals 

Thanks goodness the boys are not dominating and leaving us rueing the season that could have been!

 

Hibberd is the Brent Moloney of the backline. Just booooommbbs away every single kick.

  • 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?
