The saints ruckman are actually paying attention to him. No easy marks behind the play

1 mark and 2 kicks is just not enough.

Did little last week.

I know he is a champ bit needs to lead by example

 

Stop talking the talk. Ml

 

Great to see us turn momentum around in the qtr very unusual for us. Lever and Tomlinson on key forwards is a worry for me. Max is looking lost at the moment, hopefully he can find his mojo quickly. 

Doing well against a good side - but still lack real class at the top end in order to finish off. Oliver is great, but Billings is dangerous, and that's the difference.

Should be dropped after a good game! He's proven he doesn't have 2 good ones in him

He wasn’t good!!

Side note: Langdon is definitely a superior wingman to Hill and cost half the price. We nailed that trade!


We have a half here to win the game, go to 2-0 and set up our season.  This is it.  The time is now. 

There are no more excuses for Goodwin or anybody else and there are certainly no honorable losses.

Keep two forwards in our forward half at all times, we win this game.

First half of that second quarter we had no one one forward of 50 and it killed us.

Viney getting caught with the ball was not his fault. He literally had nothing to go to.

Would be hard to tell on TV.

shame Kossie wasn't swaning by at that moment

Calling you tmac.

Plese dont let last week be an anomaly.

I noticed late in the second you can hang off him in marking duels, no free but don’t try that on King. It must be an age, experience thing with the umpires. You know I always thought the rules applied equally to all players regardless of age. 

 

think the cab sav is killing my spelling ability.Just on the side cricket victoria is in deep trouble


Pleased we fought back because alarm bells were ringing half way through that quarter. We don’t have enough weapons to drop off in the middle, it is our strength.

It is Spud’s Game, but that doesn’t mean StK need to be helped to victory.

You mean there's another team playing?

Petracca needs to stand up in the second half. 

Luke Jackson I the ruck turned the momentum for us.

Straight after I said that he wasn't ready...

dazzle - can you please say that Fritsch can’t kick for goal, and that umpires can’t be even handed. 

Our forwards are horrible.

McDonald is back to his 2020 form


Kick it to our blokes

Stupid and dangerous from Oliver. Lucky he didn’t knock the guy out. 

 

My heart just missed a beat what was Oliver thinking very lucky

  • 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.

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    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?
