The way that Zorko has tried to deflect from his gutter mouth by saying he was provoked was disgusting.

The AFL should have acted on him and Brisbane should remove the Captaincy.

i think he was trying to say he was provoked by the fact that the demons were giving them a jolly good rogering

    Well he had to come up with something,  " well it wasn't me teach, they were all picking on me".

    He denied saying anything initially then changed his story twice.

    And he was clearly the instigator from the first bounce despite what he wants you to believe. Perhaps some Melbourne players did get stuck into him but not before he decided to get into push and shoves and headlocks first. World class [censored].

    Lions are slow learners, believe by taking cheap shots at the demons will put us off our game. 
    Let’s see after three flogging whether they continue with their tough guy act next time we play!!

     

    On another topic would be delighted to see Lions & Tigers belt the heck out of one another this weekend!😃

    From the "the dog ate my homework" school of excuses.

    His Interview with SEN last week was weak as you know what. Saying that Petty came over to him at 3QT and he was kind of surprised and trying to remember what he might have said. The next minute we're hearing reports that he was provoked and the victim or slurs that were just as terrible as what was said to Petty.

    I'm sorry, but if you said something out of severe hurt from waht came in your direction, you KNOW what it was at 3QT that you said and you don't look all sheepish about it either. 

    Disappointing the way this has all gone down.

    Perhaps the AFL could do with a better than good flogging in the next fortnight or so.

    And afterwards why not instead of just one retirement, we could have the whole rabble resign en masse.

    On a serious note there is a good reason for a fairly dysfunctional Board to look at their operational arm from a point of view of a public relations shambles these last few years and make some effort to see what's working and what isn't.

    • 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?
