they played gyros at 1/4 time

most wa-based artists are melbourne residents these days so can't see the likes of them or jebs or the like playing the half-time / post-game concert

maybe the flairz can come outta retirement

Tame Impala. 👍🏽

     Hawkins what a fair player he is . If he's not hitting, pushing or holding people behind the play, he's trying to drive them into the ground or accidentally put his elbow or forearm into no particular part of any body and I would hate to have a sob like him playing  for us..

Why does Port get 15 days off

We get 14 days off.  Shouldn't make any difference to either team.

That was a bog ordinary game. 

Objectively we are a much better side than Geelong and should win if we can avoid a run of goals like last time.

Nonetheless I’ll be having nightmares all week.

Well if we win the prelimin then we get the extra day break heading into the GF.

Why does Port get 15 days off and a game against the lower ranked finals team in a prelim for finishing 2nd? 
 

Riddle me that. 

Because the AFL wants every team to get a 7-day break in finals, there is bugger all difference between a 13 and a 15 day break and we got the easier of the qualifying final match-ups. If we can’t roll Geelong we don’t deserve to win.

If we end up playing Port in the GF we will have both hosted games against the Cats and Lions to get there so same same. And you could argue we have a bigger advantage vs Geelong given the rest week.

Plus we’ll get an extra day before the GF if we make it.

Riddle me that. 

Are you serious?

There's no meaningful difference between 13 days and 15 days off. They're obviously going to give Geelong and the Dogs/Lions winner 7 days each rather than give Geelong 8 days but Dogs/Lions 6 days.

And Port gets the "lower ranked" finals team in the prelim because they already had to beat the higher ranked finals team in their QF.

Are you seriously complaining about this?

Gives us the extra day off if we win before the Grand Final. We also beat the lower ranked team last week so a cross over has to happen.

We got this folks

I believe we can cover the Cats players, it’s the guys in yellow that really me on tonight’s performance. Not totally sure we can cover all of them. 

No goals by Giants until about 10 mins into the 2nd quarter will kill a team every time.

We must come out with huge pressure from the start next week.


The Giants had 2 players with less than 5 games played tonight. They have a mammoth injury list. 
Cats were almost full squad. Danger can’t play with a tag. 

Cats had 3-4 goals from pretty soft frees.

I reckon Hawk will carry that cork into next week so time for May to get even.

Given our last PF performance, I’m sure Goody and the playing group will come out breathing fire to make amends for it.

Might just be time to review that game after all, Goody. Get the boys angry and pumped.

At least 2 of Hawkins' goals were blatant frees against. Huge push in back and 'dont argue' to the face.

Who were the umps tonight? They can [censored] right off till 2022

It's that time of year.
Doesn't matter who we play.
We gotta beat them all.
Doesn't matter what order

Large number of our 22 didn't play in that game. No longer needed imo.

Half the team will say about half the side in red and blue, "who are these doofuses and who let them onto a footy field?"

Just consign that match to the history books and never look back.

Gawn, Petracca, Viney, Oliver, Harmes, Salem and ANB did.Get those fellas motivated and pumped and it will go a bloody long way to winning.

 

You challenge the best to be the best.

It's as simple as that.

We've had our break, now its time to crush these mofo's into submission. 

No excuses or theories about 13 day vs 15 day break we just pulverise these [censored] into oblivion.

It's a prelim final.
They've been thinking about this month all year.
They'll be ready to eat lightning and crap thunder.

  • 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?
