Assuming Freo win, we are very lucky to get pick 5 out of a 10 win season

the team in ninth are on 11 wins

We have done well overall

Still could end up with 4 & 5.

Looking like the worst possible result today with Freo starting to belt the Hawks and Gold Coast barely scraping by. 

Still a decent result all up to get pick 5 from the Jacko trade last year.

If north win, Reid is still on. ND5 with a 10 win season is a bit overs for Freo so I am glad to take it from them.

True, would rather the earlier pick locked in place though. Still a chance.


Freo really shouldn't have finished 5th from bottom. Great for us but a big under achievement for them.

We would have ripped Peter Bellends arms off for pick 5 or 6 last trade period.

Great result for the club at the end of the day.

Not stressed one bit, extraordinary bit of business by JT and his merry men and women.

 

Wow what are North doing?!

Reid back on the cards here?!?

The twists and turns of all the death rides and scenarios confuse the [censored] out of me!


Hawks are 27 down with 5 to go in the third, if they can get it down to 21 or under they might make a late run.

Suns would have to be the softest team in the league. From leading Kangas by 28 points up to now down by 5 goals. Wow Hardwick was thinking his new job is Xmas … he might be challenged !! His best toys are soft toys!!!

22 point lead to the Roos with 5 to go in the third.

Looking like North and the Dorkers will win, which means we could will trade with Meth Coast. Adelaide should beat them so will get pick 5 and pick 23 from them to go will out 1st and 2nd picks this year.

18 points but not sure how long left, could Gold Coast make a late run?

I'll answer my own question GC need 6 goals to win now so I reckon providing Adelaide does the right thing then the option with WCE is still alive

31 with 9 mins isn’t safe but I can’t see it happening.


Full credit to North for putting in the effort today. Unfortunately Freo did the same. As long as our trustworthy recruiters are on the ball again, those juicy extra picks should more than compensate for the loss of Jackson. Mind you, I'm still sorry he chose to leave.

  • 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?
