Jeez this is a good game of footy.

Freo is clearly the best side we've faced since that blistering Dogs 2nd quarter.
Hope May is OK, but I fear he isn't…!

I can Weid just get after it rather than sitting back every time?!!!!

Agree both Weed and Brown need to get in front. Very frustrating

    Dunstan warming up. Not looking good for May

    No he isn’t he is doing what every single sub does.

    Not much input from Trac so far

    Nup and his body language on the siren wasn't great. Maxy got around him though

    Lobb keeping them in it. They must be tagging Trac. They're taking advantage of no Langdon by zoning defensively just behind the wing, in a straight line. Chopping off everything. Weid needs to [censored] position himself better. Caught flat-footed and behind opponent too often. They're killing us in the air so far.

    Agree and Weid gave Bedford the chance.


    Going to miss TMac today.

    Langdon the bigger loss. But TMac is just such a smarter footballer than Weid. I'd force Weid up the ground to counter Lobb, and get Brown to play deeper.

    Pretty ordinary start and we are lucky to be in front. Loosing May will mean that we can have a look at our future FB in Petty taking the #1 Forward.

    Need more pressure in the midfield.  


    If May goes off Max will have to sit back more.

    Freo didn;t capitalise on their superiority that quarter. they won;t beat us if they continue to kick so poorly

    outstaning pressure from ANB. almost stripped darcy and then blocked the kick

    Great pick up and goal Bedford. Love that he's taking this chance.

    Bedford will be an absolute gun small forward. He is such a find !

    • 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?
