0 stars. We were absolutely putrid. No winners.

Defense so so so much better when Petty was down there.

    Phew, take that any day. A few things to work on during the week. I thought McVee with some subtle touches saved a couple of goals in the second half.

    Top game!

    A hard fought win against a tough opponent !

    They picked through our defence too easily at times but , in the end, some big moments from Max, Tracc , Oliver in the last quarter got us over the line.

    Some confusing umpiring again.

    Fritta - an absolute mare!

    J.Viney won that game for us.

    Disgusting commentary by Dunstall, barracking for the Suns and calling umps decisions that weren’t even there.

    Matt Rowell is an unbelievable clearance player, and made Trac and Clarry look second rate at times. 

    I thought Jack Viney, Max Gawn, Trent Rivers, Jake Bowey, and Judd McVee were the only ones who came close to winning their position on the night.

    We did get lucky with a few calls in the last. No doubt about it. 

    They were a man down for half of the last quarter too.

    Take the points and hope we never play like this again. 

    My god some players need to do some work on the track this week 

    I was very nervous with may kicking out. Again he went the stupid option but thank goodness Viney was there.

    We were lucky to get out of that.

    Bring back BBB. Petty is so much better down back and he steadies us.

    Start Max forward next week and let Brodie ruck the majority.

    Got out of jail big time.

    The Suns were very good and very unlucky not to win

    Plenty to work on but we’ll bank the 4 points and move on

    And Fritschy will never play a worse game than that

    GC came to play, but we were generally poor with flashes of brilliance, such as the Trac, Kozzie and Chandler goals. Defence was yuck, and it is so confusing that we got smashed again in the middle.

    Oliver and Frittata worst games for a long time. 

    Very lucky in the end. We take the points, but we have a lot of work to do.

    As soon as I saw him with ball in hand I thought we were cooked. He is such a dumb player under pressure. 

    My kingdom for a fit Salem! 
     

    Fritta needs to walk home. He nearly cost us that game in the last. Also goodbye 35 game goal kicking streak.

    We won without any of our key forwards barely doing anything. Phew!

    Any top 4 side would've killed us tonight

    Umm and a few others down back. Trac and Jack really lifted in the last.

    Wow what a finish, not sure May is the best use of the pill when we need to kill quarters and end of game. Both end of 3rd and end of game makes poor decisions.

    • 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?
