McDonald is slower than a turtle.

And one of the slower types of turtle.

    Nathan Jones encapsulates our club. Historic losers going to water under pressure . . . And accepting it. He can't play again. We have to move on.

    The most confident play we have seen all night, May casually walking to retrieve the ball knowing he touched it before the review.

    We are getting nothing from the umps, our players getting clearly held onto but it gets completely ignored, they get a shot on goal from it.

    If only the umps were the problem.

    I predicted a 5 goal win. Nek minnit. Down by 5 goals at halftime.

    God what an embarrassing half of football.

    Guys. the umpires suck, but we are nowhere near it. Stop getting upset with the umpires. If we got the rub of the green we would still be 4 goals down.

    Pathetic display but umpires are not helping some atrocious decisions, a number right in front of goal. Wish we could get a few of those within 30m. 

     

    Should’ve kept Garlett on the list opposed to paying a first rounder for Pickett who has the same impact.

    The skills in that last passage of play just before pt goalled were dog vomit. Especially from Oliver.

    Gawn and Petracca are basically the only thing saving us from certain bottom four at this point. The optimists here surely have to admit this team is going nowhere fast and needs significant list changes and coaching changes.

    Come on man don’t be a Debbie downer

    goody has got this! Omg can you imagine the learnings from this ?!

    Umps know what they are doing. Clear direction from Head Office.

    Sparrow is awful, like a bad version of the midfiedlers we already have.

    Not the kids fault but why bring him in to play midfield when gus and harmes are already starving for them and playing out of position

    ONE goal to half time. 
     

    We are FLYING.

    So overrated. Bye bye pick 1


    Fritsch, Salem, Oliver, Viney, McDonald, Harmes.

    Most overrated bunch of peanuts on our list.

    We had the run of the umpires in the first quarter. No point complaining about them. We are simply nowhere near good enough.

    • 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?
