I see the Hawks have gone all out with their Anzac Day guernsey design. 🙃

The Swans have 'outdone' them. 

Nothing!  Not even the Anzac badge on their jumpers and they are the hosts.  Very poor by the Swans, I reckon.

    Thanks, I'll correct the post.  Still think it is poor by the Swans to not get into the spirit of the occasion.

    Their was a few second footage shown of Paddy Mc talking with a medico in the rooms and he had his hands out in a pleading gesture.  The medico seemed to just walk away while he was in mid sentence. 

    I suspect there was a more to the discussion and it isn't possible to know what required her attention but I felt it was a time he needed a bit of TLC.

    When Swans get Papley back it will be a final five side methinks.

    very unlike Swans, they are normally on the ball with the occasion, not sure what happened today.

    Swans are a seriously good side though, not many weaknesses and a lot of medium-size firepower, I think will be the main challenger to us. Hope Paddy Macartin is ok, he certainly didn't look happy in the rooms

    Hawks hitting the wall in the fourth quarter.

    They have a five day break into our game against them on Saturday...

    Talk about capitulation. Hope we inflict a long overdue thrashing on them noon Saturday

    Why isn’t CJ playing for the hawks in this game? COVID? Injured? I missed that.

    Listed as injured along with Mitch Lewis. If CJ does play I reckon you move Hunt into the forward line to tag him.

    • 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?
