It's hard to admit, but our reject ruckman has outplayed Max tonight.

Disgraceful 

Brundy is an AA ruckman, probably the second best in the league, and had a point to prove.

Poor Windsor. He'll learn from that. 

He was sold out by his team mates who didn't talk at all.

Oliver no way his ready 

So would you prefer him not to play, and have another Spargo / Laurie / whomever in hi space.

26 disposals is modest by his standards but a decent contribution nevertheless.

Our worst loss all season in 2023 was 15 points. We're already worse off and defending hasn't been our main issue tonight. It's gonna be a slog of a year.

It's a bit flattering. Sydney's kicking was woeful for a quarter or more.

We look like we're going backwards.

The B graders are working us out now.

Well we have a week to see if the media is right.

On tonight's effort, I'm thinking they may be.

Probably only six or seven can hold their heads up today.

Nothing in the slightest has changed up fwd.

How are we going to score this year?

Jvr looks like a first gamer.

A purple patch from Fritta.

It doesn't look positive.

We can only hope Petty plays a full season.

Van Rooyen, all puff and no huff, useless.

Unfit and fatigued 

This 

This may be the last season of Gawn at the top, hard reality coming to us at Ruck in the near future.

Salem in the midfield hasn't seem to have been as good as I thought 

He doesn't have the physicality or the tank. Maybe try him at HF?

Sydney aren’t that good so a big worry for us. If anyone mentions training loads and is serious I’ll spew up!

 

Let’s not forget early in the year last year we looked terrible in the northern states playing in humid conditions. It’s not our go.

stick together.

Clarry needed the run and will get up to speed quicker playing AFL.

  • 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.

    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?
