haha what a scramble that last 10 minutes was. 

Saints would be absolutely gutted to lose that. Cairns strikes again (hopefully in Melbourne's favour this time around)!

    SO glad we don’t do cairns anymore! Players looked knackered. Be intersting to see if both teams fall away next week.

    Is that the first game where the inside 50 count for both teams exceeded their respective scores?!

    That was a slog.

    I wouldn't say the Saints shot themselves in the foot. If they tried they would have missed

    The last 11 scores were points - 7 to Port and that’s the game.

    Lets hope the folks at Paramount didn’t catch that one…

    I only saw the last few minutes of the Saints Port game in Cairns.   
    Just awful skills - presumably contributed to by humidity and heat?

    Maybe helps explain (if not excuse) our awful showings there and after in 2020?

    Anyway, Saints will need the full week to recover it would appear. And then maybe not quite. Rather like some of our flat lining after Darwin games.

    Maybe the debilitating effects of playing in a very narrow loss in tropical Cairns, will offset the disadvantage to us of having (perhaps) 5 players returning from Covid next round.

    They are tying to play like Melbourne, problem is they watched last weeks tape.

    Darcy gems:

    kicks it to Steele - ooh he’s a good player

    to Boak - such a good player

    you can tell he is a student of the game

    I heard him label a few solid players 'Champion' again last night.

    There were no 'He's kicked an impossible goal!' last night though which is a welcome change. Not sure why he still thinks it's impossible after he calls one nearly every game.

    Do you know what's the replacement home game for the Alice one?

    Saints looked really cooked in the heat and humidity of Cairns. Wonder what the effect would be on them if they had a few instances of Covid19 through the club this week?

    More like strong polycarbonate. I'd prefer Alice to sweaty Cairns  by a very wide margin.

    • 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?
