At some point a couple of teams will get their heads straight and rise a whole level above the rest.  Then we'll be watching 10-goal drubbings which are really 100+ point smashings, and just counting down the season to see which one sustains it through the finals.

On the bright side, with so much of the results being even more between the ears than usual, it is possible for just about any team to suddenly start running hot and becoming a late contender.

 

collingwood have advertising above their number on the back of their guernsey - are they the first club to have two sponsors on the back of jumper?

i know clubs are allowed to do it, but i thought it was existing boj sponsor getting double exposure, where's pies have cgu on front and cgu and emirates on back now

Well another night of turning down the sound so as i don't have to listen to Taylor. So bias towards Wobbles.They (umpires) apparently cannot see trips, pushes and throws, just to name a few faults in the second qtr. Never knew there was a new rule of " not high" if Wobbles do that either. GWS stepped up a gear this week and i hope they pummel the mob that could be in a lot of trouble if they aren't careful.

super congested and contested

low scoring suits the filth, but it keeps the oppo in the game...see also last year's prelim

Not a great game...yet again.

Let's hope they can break the mould in the 2nd half otherwise it looks like a good book and an early night.

GWS players need to start calling for the ball and not having 2 -3 people go up in a marking contest and spoil each other. 

DeBoer doing a great job on sidebottom. 

Come on giants beat the filth. 

Compared to North and Bulldogs this is a free flowing game for the Giants.

The Cox selection appears wrong but I like watching him

Gawn v Grundy?? Grundy loves to tap  it straight to the opposition!! 

The pies are well coached and have improved their kicking skills out of sight, hoping we can do the same!

But I think Gawn is better then Grundy and Trac way better the degoye

Giants have got this. Young Green looks a beauty


Green having an impact.  Gonna be a ripper this bloke once he gets his engine up and running at the level.  Plemty of score involvements.  great link man potential already 

Actually its a good game. Collingwood back in it,

Davis doing his hammy is a massive loss for the giants. 

Greene passing off to Cameron was just stupid. I hope Cameron didn't call for the cheap one out the back to get an easy goal. Greeen should have just gone back and put it through. 

Jeremy Howe looks like a dislocated knee cap...

 

 

whats with the blonde look at Collingwood..?

Jeremy Howe gone.

Green has played a huge role in this last quarter to get them over the line with limited TOG as well

Mummy had the better of Grundy imo (just)...nullified him and squared many contests.

Might be one of those injuries where it looks worse than it actually is.

Unfortunately I think it looks as bad as it is...his  leg buckled.

As much as he annoys the crap outta me,  Heath Shaw was solid all night.  Cudos to the vet

  • 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?
