We need to open this forward line up a bit somehow.

A lot of learnings from this game.

 

Salem [censored] himself and was too scared to pick up the footy.

Soft

There's no point blowing a gasket on this game as a fan. Not even gonna yell anymore

The amount of times a Geelong player has sprinted forward or side ways on the mark with no play on called is too many

Close has been called to stand and has twice walked meters from before the play on call. Umpiring is horrendous 

 

Mays half hearted tackle that missed sums this game up.

Lack of intent.

Apologies to Oliver and viney.

I hope there are some learnings out of this debacle 


Finally some link up play.... and guess who finishes

We saw what you did there Hawkins..to Oliver...we saw it.

MRPTV just said nuffininit


Finally some opening up forward - ANK ...>>>>> Kozzie

Is there any chance Max doesn't tap the ball forward?  Its so ducking predictable 


Learnings for  Simon - centre clearances, forward separation.

I hope the boys are not switched on, because they know it’s Adelaide anyway, as this is like 2019 Melbourne.

 

Gee I wish we kicked to leading forwards like other teams do.

I want to see Jackson spend more time in the ruck. He offers a lot at ground level and the mids seem to be playing better when he's rucking.

  • 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?

  • 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?
