Freo have put the cue in the rack. I think they'll struggle to win a game for the rest of the season from here. As the Beatles once said, "Hello Pick 4, my old friend"

I think you are referencing Simon and Garfunkel: Hello darkness my old friend, from the song, the Sounds of Silence.

    Simon and Garfunkel, surely?  From 'The Sounds Of Silence'.

    Freo's only soft game coming is against West Coast

    Wouldn't bet on it...WC will be aiming for a win before seasons end and this will be the one.

    They're starting to get some troops back.

    Sounds of Silence has been covered by a band called "Disturbed" who the Dockers should hire to do a rendition of their club song.

    Walker stretchered off with a knee injury, possible dislocation.

    Take no joy in seeing players injured. Hope there's no structural damage and he doesnt have to spend long on the sidelines.

    Not celebrating the injury. Reckon Darcy is one of the best rucks in the comp but a Darcy-less Dockers can only help the Death Ride.

     

    Darcy is one of my favourite non Demons. He looks like a burger eating, cigarette smoking suburban footballer who has mistakenly wandered onto an AFL ground. I hope his injury isn’t bad

    Haha yeah one of the iconic images of the broadcast. 

    Actually felt a bit bad for him, hope to never be in that position in my life. 

    I felt sorrier for the [censored] wearing blonde wigs and looking stupid as well as disappointed.

    Funny, reality is that he's religious and enjoys a red.

    I'd like to hear Painters and Dockers do the Freo Dockers' song.

    Sydney beating Dogs, Carlton beating Port, and GC beating the Saints, are all fantastic results as part of this deathride.

     

    Richmond, Hawthorn and Adelaide wins tomorrow will be icing.

    Probably about what every other teams supporter says about our captain - you know the bloke that had the ciggy in the car on the freeway on the way to training! 😂

    Hoping Swans can do the right think and beat Freo in WA next week!!!! If they do it would be very likely we will get pick 4 or 5.

    If Richmond win tomorrow as expected, Freo are nicely cemented in the bottom 4

    • 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?
