I wouldn’t go that far. He did ok, but looked a bit underdone to me.

Another good effort joeboy.Ā 
Funny after a big win very few comments in disagreement!

I think he definitely improved as the game went on but I honestly thought May was not having a great night particularly earlyĀ

news.com's take:Ā 

ā€˜He’s astounded’: Demons star snubs teammate in ugly moment

Hilarious article, particularly read with the knowledge of how the game played out 9whcih the article doesn't reference - it must have been written and posted almost immediately after the incident

Haha yeah the 'that's not a premiership side' stuff is over the top, but I do agree with the 'that's not Dees footy' comments. It will get wallpapered over because of how we won in the end, but I thought it was horrendous from Fritsch, and not the first time for him this year.

100% agree. And it was 'un Melbourne'. Worried me at the time, in terms of our attitude.

Brown burnt, I think nibbler, really badly later in the game at the punt road end.

Easy handball to a player in oodles of space for a certain goal, and instead he tries an off balanced snap on his non-preferred - and missed.

Yep, and Fritsch did it again in the third when he tried to dribble a goal from the boundary instead of centring it.

Fritsch, Brown and (not last night) Trac all have a selfish tendencyĀ around goals that they haven't seemed to be able to stamp out.

Yep, good call.

There was touch of Hollywood about hat effort as well

Whilst I think the commentators were over the top, there were missed goal opportunities that could have been costly in a close game. Ā

Hope they learn from those ā€˜mis takes’.Ā

  • 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 psychologistĀ  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 overwhelmedĀ 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).Ā

  • 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?
