We are now very much on top. The wet ground and the poor excuse for an AFL standard oval kept Geeling in it.

Stop the 3-4 small in close handballs.

We don't crumb packs well at all. Bruhn, Close and Miers are a cut above our crumbing players.

Salem, Hibberd, Grundy, Smith and Rivers playing well.

Please stop kicking it straight to Stewart and Guthrie. 

Agree, we are well on top - just need to show it on the scoreboard. Can we swing Petty forward. Either way, subbing out a tall for Spargo should help.

Good/decent: Hunter, Smith, Salem, Grundy, Rivers and Viney. 

Bad: Brayshaw, Tracc, Max, the umpiring and whoever is playing on Rowan!

 

I reckon we've smashed them pretty much all game. Keep this up and I've no doubt we'll win.

We will win this. Smith BOG

Ummm, it was disappointing....

And Salem cops $3k for tackling a bloke and winding him

We improved that quarter and upped the pressure. I expect us to step up a bit more this next quarter. 

We will have to if we are to overcome the rubbish umpire's decisions.

This quarter is ours.

 

 

More concerned with their non decisions 

 

Geelong is playing from behind, and using the soft or close to the line scragging. Why doesn't the one who wants and get to the ball first, get an advantage anymore? Becoming more of a defenders game, if the umps don't pay those in the backs, push and shove 5 meters away from ball when in a stoppage, and holding.

C'mon Tracc, run over them.

My pregame post said tight to half time ..... and then away we go

I'm sticking with that prediction

I tipped us by 20. If we come out composed and continue to lock that ball in our 50, we win for sure.

The bigger bench and a sub helps to make the 37 that beats the 35.

Umpires

Nick Foot (2), Daniel Johanson (6), Brett Rosebury (8), Nathan Williamson (22)

No. 6…..he’s terrible

I wouldn't be surprised if Jeremy Cameron has a busted jaw, or worse.

Grundy and Smith have both been fantastic.

Agree.

Our small forwards not getting near it and entry into F50 worse than disgusting.

 

Max is a fantastic captain but there have been times when he's needed to forget the umpires and man the hell up.

 

This is one of them

Smith knockers are quiet.

Jon Ralph said it would probably be a fine. Dunstall said Stewart looked at Jack, saw him holding his shoulder then pushed him over and said he does stupid things at times, Joey said it's what the AFL I'd trying to crack down on and Sarah Jones said it's not a good look and you wouldn't want to see it in junior football

  • 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?
