This was the PERFECT opportunity for Trac to rid himself of the goal kicking yips!

She knows her footy 👍

Gee could have really iced it right there. Reasonable effort that quarter though we held firm. Hopefully can kick 2 or 3 and it's curtains.

 

Intelligent punch forward by Oliver ... and then Fritsch nails it!  Excellent footy

Playing like winners


dees pressure but goalkicking is shizzzzzen.
 

Trac is an excellent player.  Not elite. Elite players kick the goal.

Trac must have an issue with his hip/back/leg that impacts his kicking action. They all come off the boot late and outside the boot. Haven’t seen a booming drop punt from him since round 4

Yep he really hasn't wasted a kick. 

3.7 that qtr. Could have iced it. 40 up at 3 qtr time against the ladder leader is ok though

Yeah, kicking seemed rubbish in 2020. Sweet in 2021 and then back in the bin in 2022.

Worth 300 votes tonight.


Let’s see how fit and fresh the boys are now 

Half an hour to finish the job

  • 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.

    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?
