    I wonder if there are any learnings from tonight?

    Maybe that our forward line is freaking useless.

    5 goals from 7 entries on a night where no-one can hit a cows [censored] with a banjo. You could not make this up

    He was obviously underdone and it was an obvious error by the club to drop Tomlinson for him. Everyone called it before the ball was bounced and it’s played out that way. Petty’s 2023 as a whole has been a major disappointment. Was poor up forward but then struggled in defense where he’s previously excelled.

    Petty is too slow to play in defence. Should never play in defence.

    A pathetic quarter of footy all round. Very poor indeed. How can we string good games of footy together, when we can’t even string quarters of footy together

    So glad that we dropped Tomlinson so Petty can play back so we take 0 marks inside 50. Genius.

    How have Geelong been able to get so many back in defence all night.

    Poor game from Max.

    Good game by Viney but not sighted in the last 10.

    Chandler,  Jordan, soargo and anb time for the twos.

    Shut down Fritta and we can't score.

    So missing Oliver.

    Now t's about %.

    Scott has said tackle non stop and scrag non stop and he has out coached us simply by that.

    Look forward to next years game at Geelong.

    Out coached, outplayed, outworked. Imagine thinking that Smith, Van Rooyen and Gawn is a finals standard forward line, or that Spargo is a worthy sub option, or that our goal kicking is not a massive issue.

    Terrible decision to flirt with form like that and shows the players form won't be rewarded

    We lost this game when we got off the bus. Goodwin selecting Petty over Tomlinson is a joke.

    Spare me mate! Tomlinson is a C grader at best

    • 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?
