First time for being in Australia for the Olympics for a while.

I had forgotten how cringeworthingly Aussie centric the FTA commentary can be.

Isaac Smith would have made a big difference for us this year. Oh well

Smith turning us down was a bit of a disaster for us IMO. He’s exactly what we need. 25 touches and a goal a week on the non Langdon wing.

 

How simple is it to be able to have an option to watch the game on TV/devices with the sounds of the game (crowd when available, and players), but no commentary?

I’d pay $30 a month for that option. I love the atmosphere, and don’t need anything else.


Geelong are a good discipline team. Them and Sydney are the benchmark in this aspect. 

Well I'm calling it it will be a Geelong/ Dogs GF judging on last night and todays games?

Man it’s so hard watching Geelong. They starve the opposition and then counter. They are so constistent and disciplined. 

clear flag fav imo. This will be 10 wins from the last 11 with Duncan and Cameron to come back in

 

They dont miss these mongrels.

But Richmonds pressure is shocking a shadow of there former selves.


Jeepers Geelong putting on a clinic.

There is honestly no weaknesses in their side. Unfortunately I think think they want he flag this year.

I feel sick watching too Lay.

Up to the Giants to salvage the weekend somewhat, Netflix until then.

You don’t want to play Essendon week 1 finals?

Assuming we fall out of the Top 4, Essendon would be the side I’d most want to play against. More so than GWS.


Tigers certainly seem Dusted.

Nope, not at all interested in playing anyone that finishes 8th a month out from the finish. Certainly won’t be cheering them on the assumption we drop out from the top 4 just to play them. Finish 5th because you think they’re an easy kill, no thanks.

We can be better than all of these teams, for longer, we just need to get our forward line sorted out and perhaps another outside runner (Bowey?)

So Essendon will probably get 8th spot because the teams around them keep falling down. Hopefully the giants can produce a miracle and beat them


just patiently waiting for essendon to win to put a nice little bow on this ****ty weekend. 

The 15 metre kick rule is so unfairly applied across the league. Some teams can kick it 7 metres, and some can’t kick it 25.

It needs to be addressed in the off season.

There seem to be times when the umpires just seem to think “that shouldn’t be a mark” and call “no 15” just on a whim. 

Just saw on the news Franklin elbowing an opponent with a wild backward swing - “may get a week if unlucky”.  
Imagine if one of ours did that - “4-6 weeks”!

Corruption reigns??

  • 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?
