Huge game. Win and we play finals. Tall order but confidence will be high after the Crows game.

Big games required from Zanker and Pearce again. 

Daisy to kick the winning goal

Go Dees.

    The icing is made with the men's.

    Now for the cake.

    Do it like last week. Frenetic pressure to get the ball or slow down the opposition. Endeavour for the 4 quarters.

    Get the points and come back home with the knowledge, we can win anywhere, against anyone.

    Still hoping Cunningham can come good, need those marks and long kicks.

    Otherwise, L. Pearce and Daisy to control it with, Zanker, Hanks, Hore, Gay, and Mithin.

    Expect, improvements from Bannan and Scott.

    Back-line to repel many balls.

    Go Dees!

    Really looking forward to this game after last week's fantastic performance.

    Hope they just crack this one instead of waiting until the final game.

    Go Dees

    Anyone else here going to the game?  I couldn’t buy a stand seat and will be on the wing somewhere.

    going to be a hot afternoon depending what time the sea breeze comes in.

    Excellent ball movement. Hitting targets. Carving through Freo.

    Dominated that quarter.

    Our forward line seems so much better without the one dimensional kicks to Cunningham every time.

    Our whole structure with Cunningham rucking more and Pearce forward seems to have transformed us.

    Keep the foot down on 'em girls.

    Great quarter girls. Hore was fantastic. Mcnamara, Guy, Hanks and Paxman playing really well. Keep that up for four quarters and we will win but can we,

    Paxman playing well in tight areas and Hore finding space.

    Smart footy Dees.

    Hanks has plenty of time but blazed away at the kick inside 50. Should have hit a target. Needs to improve that side of her game.

    • 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?
