Just like days of old. Numerous goals in deetime in numerous quarters.

No mental or physical stamina

 

Make no mistake, a straight sets exit in the semis is a fail. I can live with a prelim loss (which at this stage will be an annihilation) because it's a tight year and we need to sort some things out, but to go out in the semis in straight sets is straight up trash.

Ah well. Too banged up to do anything from here anyway. 

Our young players [censored] themselves anytime the pressure comes. Sparrow, Riv and Dogga all absolute howlers

    At least we won’t have to waste our time watching Geelong smash us next week. 

    Trash. Embarrassing trash.

    Please just get the job done!


    No changes to last week's side will come back & bite us on the [censored]. Pathetic & slow with dumb decisions all the time.

    The thing grinding my gears tonight is the crowd, and not the ones that are there, but the ones that aren't.

    Where the [censored] are you all?

    Absolute disgrace that we are getting out shouted in our home game at our home ground.

    Well who thinks Brisbane are going to roll us this quarter?

    We have had 5 more scoring shots. Those first quarter misses have really come back to bite us. It's the story of our season. Bad kicking


    To think we were 3.6 to 0.3 with about a minute left of the first quarter.

    Blowing this match so spectacularly is so very Melbourne.

    Done and dusted will take a Done and dusted will take a miracle 


    Im Standing at m9. There will be fights after the siren I reckon. If you have kids you might wanna leave 

    Soft free but they deserve the lead

    That’s a trend. Oppo forward 50 pressure and we crumble. Very predictable. 

    Brisbane are gonna break their 8 year MCG hoodoo against us in a semi final. Embarrassing

    • 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?
