    Lingers has given them some extra motivation with those comments. Not sure that was wise!

    [censored] I hope we beat them tomorrow. I’ll be seriously flat if we lose to them yet again.

    It can work in your favour. Might rile them up to the point where they attack Ed and they lose focus.

    Don't mind it, adds a bit of something extra.  Gee he'll cop it if we lose again.

    You better bring it now, Ed. And your teammates better come with you.

    If the Collingwood players are worried about comments like this. Good.  It means they are not concerned about the football.

    it would mean that Langdon is correct absolutely no substance all bloated duck.

    I love it. We are game and ready to take on the challenge. Collingwood have been on a hot streak but we will be the one's to end it and remind the competition who is no 1.

    I agree with Ed, they play a brand of footy that can come seriously unstuck and I think we're the team to unstick them.

    Better back it up now. Will look pretty stupid if they let a one trick pony beat them twice in one year - plus potentially have to face them again in September.

    This could be a total in joke

    His brother is no doubt still mates with a lot of the Collingwood boys, so I'm sure their paths might cross a bit more than usual outside of football

     

     

    Not too fussed with Langdon's comments except for the fact that we've been a disgrace against Collingwood since they knocked us out of the finals in 2017.

    Would've rather he trashed talked a team that we have solid record over.

    I don't mind it either. At first I thought he was going to call the entire team 'duckers', now that might have been a problem!

    I don’t like this from Ed. I prefer to let the footy do the talking. It’ll look pretty stupid if we lose now.

    Well I love it!  If C’wood rely on that for motivation, they are no bloody hope!

    Let's see if the maggots respond to them playing the man then.

    Who have we got 3, 8 and 21..no probs..

    Think the Footy on Nine Twitter is playing it up a fair bit to be honest.

    Too much red wine.

    I wonder if Langers line was planned. Might be to show them we are prepared and force them into a late adjustment. We love slow play teams more..

    Of course you can argue these things both ways. E.g. this is motivation for us to win so we don't look stupid. Fugazi.

    • 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?
