    Angus is starting to slide down the order for me, I don't feel safe when he's handling the ball in our defensive 50

     

    For All Eagles effort there's an obvious gulf in class. We'll win this by 60-80 points i reckon

    That Sparrow tap on and combination from our midfield was excellent. Do that more please.

    Yeah it's been a nice dip from them but they can't sustain it. We won't mess around like Freo did.

    We are tapping and hitting it on a lot today, might have been the tactic for the week at training.

    The forward line is at least functioning!

    Wouldn't mind our midfield doing the same. Kelly and Gaff have dominated.

    Eagles pressure that quarter was pretty decent

    Petracca's start to the year has been underwhelming. His game last week was OK but he was well held by his standards by the Swans mids, and this week he's been basically unsighted.

    Unfortunately Trac and Oliver are playing like they did in Brisbane.

    Tracc forward and bring Kozz in the middle for 10 minutes or so?

    Tracc has the fumble yips again and needs to take a grab or get a few cheap ground balls / receives to get his confidence up a little IMV.

    If staying in the middle / around stoppage i'd instruct him to get in there and get his hands on it a bit more.  Running past the contests a bit too often so far.

    • 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?
