Kosi not flying for the mark and remaking front and centre.

Presence of mind from Melksham to hold it in until he saw Demon colours.

Sorry Mr. Bombay, but it's could HAVE not could OF.

You'll have to forgive me picking you up on this oft-repeated grammatical howler.

I suffer from CDO, you see.  It's like OCD but the letters are in alphabetical order as they should be.  :D

I’ve had a about 3 gaffs tonight, the first two were words missed altogether….

I would be more upset losing Kozzy over Jackson. 

Counting down the moments until some lazy journo reads this, turns it into a ‘Kozzy contract drama’ headline, and Demonland explodes in fury.

We are like an animal that eats itself. I believe the Egyptians referred to it as an ‘ouroboros’ (but the good news is there’s a painful pedant here who’ll point out if that’s correct or not).

How shattered are these sad sacks that the Dees won?

 

Confirmed.  Montagna had always bagged the Dees.  Has a giant chip on his shoulder against the Dees.  He’s shattered. FFS.

I agree. Talk about Lever’s kick. 
 

It was Hunt that created the chance.  His run and explode to burst and kick long to the top of the square !!!! Hallelujah.  That’s the key.  It created the chance.  It created the pressure.  
 

of course Kozzzzzy 😘😘😘😘😘

Absolute tosh. Montagna was the first media person last year who I heard espouse Melbourne's shot at the flag as being anything other than a pipedream.

a question:

the goal that was disallowed and ball returned to half fwd / wing for throw-in

was it because:

1. ben brown marked over the line?

2. ben brown played on from outside the line when he wasn't behind the mark?

 

18 hours ago, Demonstone said:

The latter I believe, dc.

The view of someone claiming to be an accredited AFL umpire is that Brown ran forward of the mark while out of bounds. Hence, a correct call.

You leave me alone, hardtack.  I have a stereotype to uphold, you know.  :D

 A reputation as a pedandocrat perhaps D?

My ex told me we'd have less arguments if I wasn't so pedantic.

I told her "I think you mean fewer arguments".

  • 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?
