    If we make it, I fancy Geelong more than the Pies.

    I think that’s the most contested and hard game of footy I’ve ever seen - so good. And from my two most hated clubs. Off to punish myself for this dirty thought with a nice glass of wine.

    I hate Geelong more than Collingwood. Seeing them win a thriller with Gary Rohan playing well makes me sick. Will all be worth it if we knock them out in a fortnight though.

    I do too BUT I rather play them than the Pies so this is a good outcome for us.

    We weren’t too shabby last time we met them in a prelim!

    I know we lost our first.  But what a season, and what a finals series.

     

    But nobody really cares about the next game, Who's playing?

    It’s the best outcome. They were both super but at least we don’t have to contend with the crowd.

    Fine line between pleasure and pain for Collingwood 

    Win tonight and they’d fancy beating Brisbane or Melbourne in a prelim.

    But now they face the boobie prize - Sydney at the SCG.

    Thank christ for that. I'd fancy Sydney to take care of Collingwood again up there should they get that far. It's just a question of whether we can bring our best for three consecutive games. Right now I have my doubts.

    Great to watch a game where umpires didn't favour either team, just let it flow.

    Agree, it’s been an unbelievable season and it’s hard not to think there will be a couple more classic games.

    The only good thing to take out of our loss is I believe we are at least on the right side of the finals, as I reckon Filth could’ve taken it right up to us with their game style. Though I don’t like that defeatist type of reasoning.

    • 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?
