Do we bring a tall defender in?

Who do you have in mind?

    I completely understand that it is not as simple a take is this but when the camera crosses there bloody hell Hinkley looks completely lost in the box

    Was hoping Port would save this performance for the Grannie. Oh well…… Not happy to facing the Dogs, but our pressure will muzzle them……as long as we bring it.

    This is seriously embarrassing effort from Port. They’ve had a free ride not having to leave home for over a month, while all the other clubs have had to travel and quarantine for finals. Dogs weren’t even allowed to train in Adelaide!
    Hinkley should get the sack for this. He’s been there a decade and it’s been a decade of almosts. What an embarrassing performance tonight by the power.

    Will be interesting what impact a weeks break will do to the bulldogs?

    Will it make them leggy in the GF?

    Won't matter, GF is outside the 12 day concussion protocol.  ACLs yor lower-body bone breaks would do the trick.

    Examples where you’d expect to hear this phrase “a coat of paint would do the trick” or “a layer of mulch would do the trick.” Definitely NOT the way you’ve used it. 😂

    The Port fans don't like him because they think he is a hopeless match day coach, unable to change gears. This is their nightmare scenario.

    Stefan Martin's the Dogs' worst player tonight, by a mile.

    The question is whether he improves with a week off.

    If this is his effort in the GF, I'll gladly take that match up.

    Keath will replace Gardiner or Cordy. They'll bring Weightman back but if Martin holds his spot, they'll have to drop Vandermeer or Johannisen.

    We couldn't have played worse the last time we played the dogs. We will be fine

    I’d rather play the Bullies. Gawn will smash English in the ruck, and we have better midfield connection at present - than when we played them. Also, Allir Alir smashed us down back for Port last time - won’t miss that. I was hoping the Bullies won tonight. We will beat them. They are going to have to rely on their midfield kicking goals. And it’s unlikely they will continue to do that.

    To be fair to the supporters he’s had a good run at it. This is a sacking type game for him…you can understand the cats performance last night more than this one from port

    Two of the worst chokes of all time. 2020 and 2021 they’ve had a dream bloody run into and in finals. Two home prelims where they played like absolute gutless morons.

    Just one example....

    He's allowed Daniels to play his preferred defensive sweeper role all night mopping up at back of stoppage.  What's one of the coaching manual mantras...."try and neutralise or take away the known knowns"

    Volkano will have some explaining to do for this pathetic performance. His love child Rozee is a dud

    I thought the Celtics were a basketball team based in Boston Maldonboy?

    Just to explain - the 's' on Celtic is possessive.

    My Scottish wife and her entire family are rabid Rangers fans, and I follow Celtic because of my grandmother. It's a wonder the wedding went ahead actually.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
