Not cheap, but I think pints are over 14 normally 

Pints have really caught on. Even in trendy Wollongong they are all the go.

Such a wonderful standard unit of measurement where one can swear in good conscience in a court of law that "I'd only had a couple of beers".

 

Looking forward to it. Train in from the SE suburbs has a fair few fans on it. Hope the crowd is strong. Go dees!

And on top of it all, you can visualise this lovely exchange every time you order one:

Saves return trips to the bar when quaffing shiraz deaver .

Got here too early and making conversation with myself in the Beames bar. No choice but to get a pint. 


No point wasting time with pots. Pints the only way to go if you're being serious.

Amateurs!

The jug is the only size for a decent beer, however they do look at you funny when you order six!

An hour before the bounce and it does not matter where in the world you are, it is still an hour before the bounce.

What I want to see this evening is the team 'on' from the first bounce. I want to see us playing the game on our terms and making sure that the Tiges are reacting and on the back foot. The on-field leaders have to do their job of keeping minds concentrating.

Pressure, Pressure, Pressure on the ball, the ball carrier and the possible next receivers all over the ground. A team game.

Individual performances I will be keeping an eye on:

Viney - he has been in great form this season except for the Lions game. I want to see him respond. 

McVee - just cause I enjoy watching him.

Petty - had a couple of games back and there is now no excuse not to perform.

Win for the Dees by 6/7 goals.... heart over head? we shall see.

Expect a lift everywhere. But for a few last game, we were so flat. I don't know what happened but we looked very ordinary on our own turf. Ill pay that we played last year's runner's up but something went wrong somewhere. 

Tonight there's no where to hide and no excuses. No fatigue .

Our midfielders need to get back to winning the centre clearances and stop teams connecting with all Maxy's tap wins.

Our forward line needs to get cracking. If we can't hold our marks then they need to follow up with non stop tackles and pressure. 

Hopefully Olivers much better after his operation and Kozzie bolsters our pressure acts.

I'll back Petts to come out firing and have a big game in the absence of Bbb.

The focus is all on us tonight not the tigers. If we are a top four team then we need to have a comfortable win this evening.

Enjoy the game ladies and gents. Especially those of you there. Cheers.


Laurie the sub.

Turner starting.

Probably on the bench to fill Roohey's role when he takes over from Max in the middle and also when he's resting on the sidelines.

Good luck young fella!

Sounds like he was in peak fitness for the last game. 

It's building pretty nicely.

  • 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?

    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?
