Everything Dunstan touches is turning sour. Very much a downgrade on Viney.

Excellent umpiring decision to pay a free and a 50 for the push and then slow pass back. 

Rivers is becoming a goalkicking defender wtf?

Agree RE the umpiring decisions there and about Rivers. It's been a while since we've had goal kicking defenders and midfielders.

 

The main thing I love about about this team is even when teams bring their best heat, they still can’t score. North’s absolute best, which they won’t be able to sustain, sees them 10 points behind and it should be more. 

Loving that Gawn and TMac have gone the sleeves in the Narrm strip in addition to the usual suspects. Looks great.

The coaches will sort out the clearance issues at qt

Oh well. I'll take a 10 point lead at quarter time. I get that it's easy to make fun of NM but I expect every opponent to be competitive against us.

Narrm FC has never lost a quarter!

Did Lever cop a whack to the moosh in that push and shove?

Totally. North couldn't play much better than this, and we're still impenetrable.

Not a bad first quarter. Didn't expect much from North but they're having a go

This game, like this ground, is trash. 
Let’s get the 4 points, avoid injuries and move the hell on to bigger and more important things.

God help us if the backline ever decided to take a day off

But we're not 10,000 points up at quarter time against the bottom side! Lazy players don't care! Waaaa!

Ignoring the fact that a team with nothing to lose are always going to give their absolute all. We don't need to smash them in the first quarter.

  • 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?
