You're reading too much into it 'Nev'

    No, it makes no sense.

    It'll be something like, Zorko said "your sister wears army boots", not knowing that during the week, Petty's sister was indeed found to be wearing army boots.

    For "army boots", substitute something far more intensely personal.

    Zorko probably didn't know that he'd touched a raw nerve, but when you're playing Mr Tough Guy, things can backfire on you.

    Could be distracted by the Petty issue or could be focused on finals because that is all that counts.

    If anything I just thought they were all trying to avoid Roaming [censored].

    Alan Richardson commented on it post game, Goody spoke about it in the presser, May talked about it post-match, so have most players. Clearly it's on their minds.

    They're trying to stay professional. They will let the relevant parties sort it out.

    Not that 'Nev' your talk about the players reaction in the rooms after the game is what I'm talking about and you know it.

    What are you on tonight???

    The Petty/Zorko thing is big, we all know that.

    They were all asked about it, they didn’t bring it up themselves… it’s funny how you tend to think about something when asked about it. Why the need to dramatise everything?

    Goodwin punting to the AFL means he is pretty filthy about it - didn’t diffuse it, just played a straight bat.

    The Lions head of footy didn’t contest what was said - only that Zorko apologised and so did the Lions.

    The best thing that could happen for the Lions heading into a game with the Tigers is for Zorko to be suspended.

    Give them a chance to win…

    Zorko is shizen under the finger nails. You can call somebody a [censored] on the field but if you call out some ones family member a [censored] you have crossed a bridge too far.

    Right, so it's a big thing, they're all commenting on it, but it's totally not effecting them... ok.

    Richardson literally sough out an interview after the game.

    Embarrassing how much you follow me around. Stick to the 'make off it what you will' routine.

    I've always felt like Dayne Zorko is a [censored]. I suppose this confirms it.

    They're copping heat already online for "faux toughness", which is very accurate. Zorko, Mathieson, Robinson, all pretty rubbish fellows.

    Zorko got caught stone cold holding the ball by Langdon in the first quarter and reacted by grabbing Langdon's hair and putting him in a headlock. [censored].

    I might be unique in this opinion but I’ve got respect for mitch robinson. Has always played hard, lived on the edge and got the best out of himself. Called is bruise free when we were.

    Zorko has always been a crap bloke. Look at his run ins with Touk Miller. He is the worst captain in the AFL by a mile. They will never win a premiership with him as captain

    • 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?

      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?
