    Very difficult weekend for tipping. Most of the games look very close, while the others are open for boilovers. 

    Crows to beat Port tonight.

    Isn’t every Monday a holiday in Vegas? For the construction industry it is…, and if it rains on Sunday they get paid double time for a day they don’t work and if it’s over 22 degrees they all go home 😳😜😜😬😬

     

    Good luck the Olympic 2032..

    I wonder when they're going to stop counting the number of showdowns they're currently up to?

    Go crowbots.

    At the risk of going the early crow, this was the message I sent my mate I punt with beforethe game:

    'I am really bullish about the crows to make their line. In fact, I think they'll win.

    Showdowns are like finals. Which always evens things up and means a hard contested game. Which I think suits the crows.

    But the main reason is port's injuries. Key players out in alir and Powell Pepper. And rozee is surely ginger.'

    This was my mates reply:

    I like them, but not quite as confident, $ Crows +5.5.

    Good luck to him. I hope a win (to Adelaide) comes his way. Suits the Dees too 😉

    How is this not holding the ball?

     

    As holding the ball as it gets, and they are risking the player being slung to the ground by not paying it in time.

    Port can't score. Why they have Dixon in their side is a joke.

    Crows playing the better team game.

    JHF needs to stop playing as 'JHF' and actually watch the ball.

    he's so much like buckley - wants to do it all

    he's not even the first or second best mid in their side

    Port are such a flakey side, never know what you will get from them. As for the Crows, they are always up for playing Port.

    • 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?
