Richmond asked us a few big questions in that quarter and we had the answers. We will get to ask a few questions of our own before this game is done.....

 

We are fumbling, nervous, dropping easy chest marks and over handballing early in the qtr. it looked nigh on game over.

We settled somewhat, but they need to stay composed and focused, not worry about the grubbiness or all that crud and play our football and see if they can best it. Early on we are playing on their terms.

Mustchange that if we are to have any chance.

Huge crowd would take a while to settle.....some of our guys wouldnt have ever seen a crowd like this considering covid last year...

Jeez Richmond applied some serious heat - we stood up pretty well in the end

Hoping our fitness can see us going the distance. They really seemed to have a lot at contest after contest that quarter.

Richmond are sneaky bastards. Always with the sly dig in every contest.

Agree. They always like to sneaky punch, knee or elbow

Our centre clearances are always woeful, we get cut up on the outside of!the centre circle.

Richmond threw everything at us, we responded. That amount of pressure last year we would be 6 goals down. 

Let's keep it going, finals like pressure tonight!!

And Spargo tackle on Houli ?

ANB, you lack intestinal fortitude and that is the kind way of saying that.


Take that quarter. Got jumped early with an @$$y Riewoldt goal and then a turnover and hack kick goal. Richmond will nail us on turnovers if we cough it up. However they will run out of puff if we hold possession and make them chase.

Jordan taking Dusty (mostly) in the middle...then Hibb when he drifts forward.  Viney playing a bit at HF

I think Not where it’s in the goal square !! 

If that's the best the Tigers have then they have nothing! 

We'll win this!


Its an isolated shower....will stop soon

Got to stop the fumbling


 

Kick it Viney!!!

  • 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.

    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?

  • 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?
