This has to be the worst surface in the AFL, worse than Marvel.

You are  the biggest exaggerator in the world CB. It's still VFL Park.

Need to be a lot cleaner going inside 50. Shouldn’t be hard playing against an absolutely ****house team. Eagles are Neeld era bad and will have percentage in the 40s after today! Cmon boys put the foot down and be ruthless!

    The umpires must clearly see the elbows to the throats and neck. I don’t get why they don’t stamp it out of the game there and then.

    Too many passes that hang in the air a bit too long. If we just put our heads down the game would be much easier. They are creating more opportunities this quarter which is unacceptable.

    Kellie Underwood described Sparrow as being "concussed" by the hit he sustained early in the game. He's out there now.

    There's inaccurate and then there's just plain irresponsible. Don't describe a player as being concussed without a shred of evidence that he is.

    I'm a huge fan of the contribution women are making to footy all round. But Underwood is doing the cause no good tonight.

    Oh well we can always kick 26 points and smother them

    2 minutes left. 4 goals ?

    Umpires starting to listen to the crowd. 😞

    Petracca needs to completely revamp his set shot routine.

    Hope Trac gets his goal kicking radar back online before finals. His set shots have been poor this year.

    Hard game to call, feel sorry for the umpires.

    Poorest quarter for year,  no excuse for poor i50 connection, our fwds have oceans of space.

     

    Not the prettiest quarter but held them out. Would have liked a couple more on the board

    • 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?
