Verrall has a very bright future. 

only 20yo! and 200cm

promising indeed

I understand Moniz has probably been asked to learn some defensive aspects of the game but surely he should be up forward most of the time?

Where else are the goals coming from at ground level on a regular basis?

There's my answer... The Shack! 😅


Is it just me or is Bailey Laurie’s disposal terrible.  Watching this game and he misses targets and with time to consider still bombs long to nothing, with no advantage to Casey and the ball easily rebounds.

Schache showing real endeavor 

 

Turner take a bow son.  Great courage and mark there.

He knows how to be a 'small' forward, Goodwin believes in versatility, players able to play more than one position.

As for the injuries, he is still growing and his body complains now and again.


Josh Shackie showing the requisite physicality has the penny dropped?

Nice shove against Curry not called there.  Then holding the ball after taking on two tacklers and just throwing the ball in the air after.

Yet ump picks out HTM directly in front.  Horrible and got what it deserved... a shocking behind lol

So Moniz kicks out of 50 up the line.... Port player couldve gathered but decides to leave it instead so it goes out.... then the ump calls it intentional haha.  What a joke 

They then kick it back in and score a goal.  The AFL has certainly stuffed the game big time from this side.

He was, then he dropped a very simple mark

No ...the kids are screaming in horror at the unbelievably bad umpiring!

Kynan so clean

Lovely work from Brown dog to fullcream there.  Fab goal from 50 for his first!

I assume it's not just you because there's a lot of Laurie haters here, but his disposal is consistently his strong suit. His next disposal after your comment he laced out schache who dropped it. Every Casey played has had some shockers by foot today. I'm more impressed that with Laurie's defensive endeavour with 11 tackles to half time. His hands in short have been elite as well.

 

Quality of the contest belies the relative ladder position of both sides.

It’s not the Port players job to pick up an intentional out of bounds kick any more than it would be to touch a bull going out of the full.

Been some shockers, but that wasn’t one of them

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
