Fritta’s hair is all sorts of something.

    Beautiful Bailey!

    I'm really liking that you can see players are trying to remember to look a bit more shallow inside 50. Not happening every time, but you can see they're actually thinking of it now.

    That hairstyle is weirdly both 2020s millennial and also 1950s spunk.

     

    Benny!


    This just could be tge smashing of a team we have failed to do all season.

    And if so...great timing.

    Come on Dees.

    Kill....destroy...squash.

    Gold Coast will not just die. We were further ahead of Hawthorn and we know how that turned out. 
     

    Viney is still a liability. He is a second behind the ball.

    Viney once again doesn’t take the first option, takes on tacklers and coughs it up.

    Viney standing flat-footed then, so bad.

    Of course we can’t capitalise on a three goal lead, our team just assume we have it in the bag now.

    He still plays like as if he's in a bad team. Tries to do too much.

    Good finish from Suns there, but that was Viney’s goal. Awful from him all round.

    Horrible option and disposal by Hunt, not Viney's fault.

    New whipping boy it seems.

    • 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?
