Darren Burgess has tipped Langdon for best off-season recruit.

Who knew taking your time with your disposal = better disposal.

Ta umps, forgive you for last week.

Spargo got that foot IQ, loved it.

Lockhart loved the game.

Harmes is in the side just because he is a good athlete.

    I told you guys at three quarter time we would win by 10 goals! 

    Now, please, bask in every glorious moment of smashing the filth! 

    Go Dees!

    Sensational effort boys. 2nd Quarter was very impressive. Didn't stop running all day, showed some real hunger.

    Not gonna lie, beating the filth always feels just that little better.

    What a cracking performance. Sensational. So proud of the whole 22 (and the coaches). That’s the standard now. Nothing less.

    Let's get the knocks on this one out of the way early: they were two down on the bench, missing some of their absolute best, and on a two-day-shorter break than us.

    But we did most of the damage in the first half, before their rotations or short break hit them. This wasn't junk time goals like the Adelaide/North wins were in some respect.

    They were on top in general play for a while and we absorbed it and then hit back when we could.

    Lever made three big errors but the back six, as a unit, held up well. They had more inside 50s than us.

    We got Viney back into the side and managed to have all four (Oliver, Viney, Brayshaw, Petracca) play well.

    I thought Langdon was exceptional and got some reward for effort with his two goals. Also thought Lockhart and Hibberd were really good.

    Spargo's second quarter was a nice cameo highlight. But shows that he's a better player than many give him credit for.

    I'm still not sold on vandenBerg and Jones, though. But we had fewer passengers tonight and we won by 56 when the game wasn't entirely on our terms. 

    Win next week and this is all starting to become real.

    Brad Johnson is drunk.

    Just said Lever was back to his best and Treloar won plenty of the ball.

    • 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?
