    Petty can't do all the aerial stuff. 

    Start winning the ground ball at stoppages.

    And stop fumbling. 

    And Fritsch, your howler was a momentum killer.

    Dogs defence is playing extremely well. We can’t seem to win a ground ball if we don’t win the contested mark. Stark contrast to the Geelong game.


    Not looking good at all right now. It's like the Dogs had 2 extra players all quarter.

    Everything looked so promising after the first quarter 😪

    Worst possible result this quarter.

    We all see what might be coming: Melbourne crumbles under the pressure. Bulldogs stick it up em one more time.

    This is not going to be easy. Please show something in the 2nd half Demons. Please let us get there!

     

    We have been able to reset all season. time to hit the reset button now.

    Spot on.

    Constantly overrunning the ball and the Bulldogs look far more dangerous when the ball hits the ground in their forward line.

    Bont getting uncontested marks. We best do like we did against Geelong in round 23.

    Edited by Green Demon

    Just can't see us winning. Never could. This Dogs team at their absolute best was always better than our best. We were just better for longer throughout the season. They are a super, super team.

    We will reset. A couple of silly mistakes changed the momentum. But it’s going to go to the wire now. Boys need to lift and get a bit of confidence back.

    Nope. They were much better, and coming harder still.

    Was that our worst quarter for the year, barring that quarter against Geelong in Round 23?

    Worse, so many missed opportunities in that first quarter too, we could have almost snuffed them out before we even hit QT.

    Backline wilting under pressure. Dogs can't miss & our forward line all over the place. Frisch needs to lower his eyes & we need something from Kosi as this game is fast slipping away from us.

    • 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?
