Just got to be steadier with the handballs

Great response Dees. Is Brown ok?

Tactical sub, should be alright 

Thanks god for the umpire there, Grundy was standing the mark almost two metres back and the umpire showed him he could come up closer which ultimately is why the Sydney players’ last kick fell short.

Yeah I think it was just to go with a smaller forward line.

They need to get the ball to ground in the forward line and not let the Mcartins mark

I have covid and watching from home unfortunately..... so have to listen to BT and also scare everyone in my house

Go boys, we have repsonded against a really good side.

 

How much better is Grundy rucking today, difference mindset knowing you're going in as the no 1. ruck for the game. 

Yep and I reckon Maxy has probably helped him out a bit this week & probably gave him the belief.

My husband watching at home said it’s apparently a tactical sub? He seems ok. I assume his knee is a bit sore. 


Rivers is having a great game

He has a back injury. Apparently couldn't even bend down to touch his toes

Unbelievable play by Clarry in that quarter with that handball smother. Best player we have ever had.

Grundy really lifted that quarter.

Great finishing by Fritta.

Langdon really needs to goal from 20 out.

Loving McVee. Looks a natural.

 


This one is far from over, Swans are getting their looks wheb they transition from the back. Need to keep our composure and hit the targets when it counts. 

Grundy has been very impressive. Working his [censored] off.

The game was over the moment we got out to a 30 point lead.

Happens all the time.

8.3 to 8.6 since quarter time - sounds disastrous!

Did someone say drop from the Fritta? 

Yeah he was a bit weak earlier, but how classy is he. 

Look, I’m not saying that it was me… but yeah I made a bad call. 😂

Or maybe I inspired him… 🤔 

But seriously, his chasing or following opponent up the ground to keep pressure was poor when I wrote that. 

what a great Quarter! such intensity

4.1 up. what could go wrong from here?

Bbb ...I'm not sure if he's injured.

 

Was getting beaten pretty soundly in most 1 v 1s but could be an niggle or injury.  Anyone hear anything?

Certainly lifted since half time

  • 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?
