Dam now we have to find to 2 goals in z a row.

Do people realise Grundy is actually an AA ruckman? He's a smart footballer and a good one. They are talking him up like he's some new player

 

FFS

thats that i reckon. haven;t fired a shot this quarter

 

Where's the highly rated mid field tomight?  Woeful

Grundy smashing Gawn, our small forwards are terrible, Lever bad, any chance we can stop Blakey off half back

Well thats game over, a few areas to work on starting with kicking.

Gameplan is just stale on so many obvious fronts.

We’re so predictable when we just don’t have to be 

Yet, so many people will defend Simon to no end. Poor preparation is poor footy.

Worst game by Gawn in a long time.

Grundy has run into his space at every centre bounce blocking his ability to run. He by no means has won the contest between them but has nullified him in ruck contests.

Gawn tired 

Viney tired 

too many passengers 

Viney vs the swans. 


That might be it.

The learnings are the same.

No big fwd who can kick goals.

I hope Bbb can get back to something.

 

What a disappointment this is turning into. Losing to a team missing it's two best midfielders and leaders. Some really stupid and lazy efforts tonight with players bashing into each other with no communication. 

Two clear opportunities at centre clearances totally and utterly f###ed by senior players. Why Jack? Why are to trying to take the entire swans team on?!


We don’t deserve this

Gawn’s taken a bath, kicking into 50 the usual abomination, Laurie, and Schache confirmed list cloggers. Chandler hasn’t played an AFL standard game since round 9 last year.

Oh you know when viney gets tackled like that we're stuffed

He had the runner, why he’s taking them all on is beyond me.

Nup Max is just off.

Lots to be concerned about and little to enthuse. 

 

less than 5 minutes to give the game away.

zero changes from 2023 to 2024.

watch all the ruckman play Gawn this way for the remainder of the season. 

sad, really

  • 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?
