tough quarter. Lions far the better team. We need to bring much more heat otherwise we're going to have our pants pulled down tonight.

    A really good test for us now. No pressure anywhere across the ground.

    in the past we would have been down 6 goals by now.

    Time to start playing dees and shut that cheating bartard Hipwood down.

    They can’t play better, and we are going at 60%. Clean up around the ball, lift our intensity, and the umpires start being consistent with stoppages (some are given forever, while others they want to ball up after 1 second) and we’ll be right.

    They’re playing out of their skins. They’re sticking marks, getting hands free in tackles, bounces going their way. 

    Lucky to only be two goals down. Need to lift. But the positive is that we have a lot of improvement in us.

    McDonald, Weideman and Jackson have a combined total of 4 disposal. That's our 3 key forwards who have done nothing.

    Keep it up and you can take your pick out of Weideman and Jackson who goes out for Brown.

    Jackson up forward is useless and Weideman just doesn't demand it enough.

    Game lacks a sort of energy. We haven’t turned up today. No real intensity & lethargic. Can’t fault the Lions - they are a side playing like a top 4 team.

    8 goal loss if this continues

    Pressure lacking

    kicking to packs

    they're marking everything 

    panick

    is Goodwin the right guy (j/k)

    If Hipwood plays on from a mark foward of the mark and out of bounds why isn't play on and then out of bounds?

    We look very undersized down back normally Hipwood and Daniher can’t kick straight BUT tonight they can 

    we look flat and nobody dangerous up front need a big turnaround

    He had a decent game last week, so he is due for another seven down games.

    They need to stick some marke but to be fair the ball lived in Brisbane's forward half

    hard to watch him play

    Gonna take a mighty shut-down effort this one. They’re outstanding, and making us look very ordinary.

      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?
