Ha ha, Ricciuto saying it's great umpiring to reverse it.  I wonder why?  No bias there.

If we're playing any other side we're down at quarter time.  We aren't playing well at all... but we're in front.  How, I don't know.

Viney and May have been good.  Thought Sparrow had a dip and Langdon was good on the wing.

That's about it really.

    Umpires going to gift this to the Crows. As blatant as it gets. Corrupt.

    What just happened?


    I thought they'd learnt from Pittard last week. But that act was a disgrace to the jumper. Pitiful 

    This Collingwood documentary is really interesting.

    It's there a dumber footy side? 

    I agree, the umps need to stamp out the pushing after a free kick.. it’s pathetic

    Umps have let Adelaide get away with this niggle all game. Just as they've let Max be tackled in the ruck and Taylor Walker has been allowed to shephard in the marking contest multiple times. Two free kicks for us that quarter is [censored] [censored]

    3 yellow Satans? 

    I was so excited to get a free :(

    Honestly, is there a team with more dumb footballers in the AFL? Unforgivable by Vanders. A goal after the siren would have given us a ton of momentum despite looking rubbish.

    This group wanted to prove themselves. That was bloody ordinary.

    Max shouldn't have played either. Poor leadership. He's getting pantsed and should have sat this one out. It's like when Viney and Jones played as captains when they weren't fit. Leadership is recognising when you're not fit to play.

    Let's hope he can turn it around, because if our blueprint is contested footy, we can't win contested footy if Gawn doesn't touch it and O'Brien gives them first use the whole time and then smashes Max once it hits the ground. I'd be tempted to try Jackson for a spurt.

    WTF is going on with the umpires? In the backs not there, dangerous tackles, maybe but then you have to pay the others. What was that late reversal about?

    • 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?
