Hugely disappointing. Especially since we couldnt play more than 20 mins of decent footy. Port were a class above us for most of the game

Will be a real chance to miss top 4 if we keep this up


Gameplan and coaching lost that one.

The irony is that Port weren't that good.

We're going nowhere while Goody has them playing like robots

Our coaches cost us that game.

Nkt tagging Butters after half time is inexcusable. And frankly idiotic.

May kicking in to the same f’ing spot every f’ing time is f’ing dumb.

And Yze has been outclassed by other midfield coaches most games this year, sheer talent of Trac and Clarrie paper over this, we get spanked for clearances and like the May kick ins nothing changes. 
 

Goodwin, have a look ya nonce, Butters had 40 million touches, you can put someone near him!

Tmac, go away.

JVR, your over zealous at the player cost us goals. 
 

May, never kick in again.

Score line flatters us, we were beaten for 3.5 qtrs tonight, unfortunately same story as our other losses out worked round the contest, black line under pressure all night, fwd line non functional 

 

Hated the 1st half.

Very proud of our 2nd half.

Our kicking inside F50 needs a shake up. Soooo many opportunities, and some howling shockers from seasoned players.

And although some of our forwards had poor nights, they all put in solid effort. But the delivery to them... sheesh!

 


We lost it. We won it. We lost it again.

Credit to Port. They’re a very good team. Butters had a great game

Disappointing last quarter. We should have seen it home.

Salem very good on his return. Great to have him back. Rivers fantastic as well.

I hate BT with a passion. 

Dust ourselves down and go against Freo next week.

Go Dees

Kenny dancing like he's won the flag. Winners are grinners I guess. Hope we get a shot at them again.

Anyone who will blame the umpiring for this loss is simple papering over the very obvious cracks. 
You don’t play an insipid and soft first half against a top 4 side on their home ground and win. 


Didn't deserve to win. But what a shocking last throw in by umpire, would've like to see a contest in that final 15 seconds 

Goodwin be brave and make some statements with changes.

Langdon needs a spell, JVR cannot read the flight of ball and made silly mistakes. Back to Casey please.

We fumbled all night, they were clean, almost like it was a sunny day for them.

We seriously deserved to lose and got our just rewards.

Make some hard calls Goodwin for once in your life.

Pressure needs to go on our midfield. With Clarry, Trac and Viney getting service from Gawn and Grundy, we should never get belted around the stoppages. To lose clearances 10-0 in the second quarter should be career ending stuff. Heat needs to come on Yze as the midfield coach. We’ve been beaten up around the stoppages consistently this year and it’s become a problem for us being that our game is built off contest and our stats are around the ball. 


Easy to get a run on in a quarter when you don't turn up for the other 3. 

Tired of hearing about our midfield, rack up the numbers but can apply pressure for 4 quarters. Wonder if it has to do with our terrible fitness coach.

Too tall, too slow for modern football, their midfield was harder at the ball.

port deserved to win it, mistakes by Viney and Roo hurt us badly.

Pack her up and play the kids.

Half the guys out there look like they can't move.

Tank for Reid. 

 

Another game ruined by umpiring. How many will it take, and affecting which clubs, will it take to force an improvement? Because that was truly disgraceful. On another matter, having let Noah Anderson and now Zak Butters make us look ridiculous, can only imagine what Nick Daicos is gonna do.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

  • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

    Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

  • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

  • PREGAME: Hawthorn

    The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
