The night hasn’t started well for a death ride. Hawthorn want this Harley Reid character more than we do.

Let's hope WC can beat them to the tank

    Freo's guernsey is an abomination.

    I think Freo has delivered more Guernseys this season than  wins 🤔🤔

    Goodbye pick 4, we barely knew thee.

    Don't worry this is the only easy game Freo has. They have a very tough fixture in the next 5 weeks, including us at the G.

    Hawks are a joke

    The annoying thing is they'll bring in CJ and Bruest and ramp up the intensity to have good optics against good opposition. We'll still win, but it probably won't be easy.

    My appetite for death riding this weekend was quashed. when I saw the hawks outs. I hate the Hawthorn footy club.

    Hopefully normal service resumes next week and the Swans give Freo a touch up at the SGC.

    Anyway, back to the game. I expect the Hawks to take it right to the Dockers until late into there 3rd quarter, and then pull on the handbrake.

     

     

     

    Got that wrong.

    I'm wishing for a 100-point shellacking.

    Sydney are absolute trash at the moment, but surely they’ll give Freo a hiding.

    Freo have beaten Hawks and Eagles and their win over the suns was due to GC choking. Not an impressive form line. I expect the Swans to beat them without too much trouble.

    It is kind of funny hearing the love in the media for the way Freo played last night like it was a big achievement. Anyone can drive a car safely for 5 minutes, let's see them in a Grand Prix under actual pressure.

    Season over if they don’t. You can’t make up 3 and 6. Not this year.

    I think I'm out...it's too hard supporting one AFL team let alone another (the one playing Freo).

    We will get a top 10 pick, can't see them making the 8.

    Anything higher than 10 will be a bonus.

    We'll be getting a pick as high 4 and as low as 7 imo. Unfortunately North, WC and Hawthorn are all but certain bottom three. Then from 15th - 12th/11th it's anyone's guess but I can easily see Gold Coast, GWS and Richmond finishing above Freo. 

    They have a terrible draw, have a flawed system, are playing without confidence and the players that left last year have left a big hole. 

    Plus there is pressure building from the outside and we know what happened to us in 2019 as the pressure kept building.

    Not sure I'd label them trash given they kicked themselves out of the game against the best team in it atm without Paddy and Rampe.

    • 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?
