Our defenders having a nice rest 😁

 

Ttacc's IQ coming inside 50....very costly

 

Too slow to react there

Dees pressure on Cameron's around-the-body was perfect. 

Max took the mark (tallest man on the ground), and two of our fastest manned the play-on. Cameron misses.

 

Could have claimed a prelim berth...shocking kicking but thats us I guess.

Credit for the domination.


I like 2nd quarter Cameron much more than 1st quarter Cameron. 

If not for some atrocious goal kicking, that was great to watch. Well on top. Great footy to watch. 

That was much better. We could have killed this game if we kicked straight. Game is still there to be won but we are doing very well. Brisbane will reset and come out firing. 
We must come out strong after half time. 

Fantastic quarter. A player who has really impressed me is ANB. His endurance running has been excellent and his kicking is improving out of sight. It isn't the first time he's performed in a final.

You know the game’s not over, right? 😝

Lions went out to hard in the beginning.  I expect them to regroup after half time. Not over yet.


5 goals up at half time.
Gotta be happy with that.

Still, this game would be over if we kicked straight that qr.
One sacrificial goat not enough for finals obviously.
2 next game.

Our half time score is 9.10.64

19.64

Just sayin.

With straight kicking it almost could’ve been. But I’ll definitely take the 30 points at 1/2 time

Should be 12.7 or 13.6 and game over

Maybe we are scared of leading by 44 points, after last week.

If Trac could kick this would be done. His kicking technique is nasty.

Just need that belief in front of goals, the tentative vibe is creeping through the whole team and it's been an issue all year.

Brilliant behind the ball and loving our contest work.

Just focus on winning this quarter and we've got it.

  • 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?
