Except his goal kicking, Weideman has been brilliant.

    North drop the ball in the middle. No free. 

    I really enjoyed the no call on Goldstein pushing off with an arm on Jackson.

    Umpires are an inconsistent joke

    Weid has arrived.. too bad he isnt kicking straight, he would be on his way to a massive bag and this game would be over.

    Bury them in the 2nd half

    WEIds positioning is getting better all the time.  Pity he cannot kick straight

    What an utterly pathetic and disgraceful quarter. Our skills and decision making is laughable.

    I'd agree our skills haven't been great, but I think our decision making on the whole hasn't been too bad.  We are well behind in disposals, but our pressure and transition work has actually been pretty good, which has allowed us to keep the ball locked in, but to also defend well too.  Poor kicking for goal hurts - if we don't miss a few of those cheapies we might be 4-5 goals up.


    Weid and Petracca are killing them. Umpiring still shocking though.

    Weideman redeeming himself slightly.

    His marking has been great today. Kicking less so. He should have 5 goals.

    Never been happier to be wrong about goal into half time behind. He should have 4 on the board already and we should be 3-4 goals in front. Completely dominated them that quarter. 

    Weideman playing like Wayne Carey. 

    This is some performance by him.

    Weideman has to work with a sport psych. The goal kicking is all confidence. He is a beautiful kick and has excellent technique. But if he misses one or two gettable ones he just can’t get over it. 


    Yep been impressed with spargo as well, seems a set quicker and stronger at the contest. 

     

    THANK YOU SAM.

      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?
