T Mc and Tomlinson keep running to the same spots the big dumb oafs. Seriously, it cant be that hard to go man on man 

 

Not sure how we can possibly close this gap with our non competitive midfield and our lack of forwardline. 

This is comedy champagne footy.

Getting spanked around the footy and on the outside.

This is WC game all over again.

Goodwin has not learnt a thing this year.

    V, V, V poor. 

    We’re going to need to sharpen up pretty quickly but I’m not seeing how. Everyone looks so sloppy and sluggish across the board. Pretty disheartening. 

    Freo's best first quarter for the year.

    Freo's best half for the year.

    We consistently make this irrelevant spud of a club look like superstars.

    Anyone in here who genuinely thinks we are a flag chance has rocks in their head. Been clear for quite some time.

    Your man Fritta just being a physical beast as he is in that last contest @DeeSpencer

    Found himself in front for the first time ever and had no idea what to do!

    So many of our players are disinterested or happy to not give 100%. That is a coaching problem. Clearly Goody’s messages aren’t getting through, or he has lost the players.

    It’s like we want to play finals, but aren’t willing to put in the effort to get there.

    This is diabolical

    Your last three words are superfluous.

    How does Turner drop a chest mark like that?

    basic stuff guys

    Disgraceful footy … same old BS from Goodwin game plan, let’s extended his contract to destroy the remaining talent 

    Edited by Demonsone

    Another demolition job. We haven’t been this poor since 2020. This season is definitely not going anywhere fast. 

    Why won’t Melbourne make the perceived hard call and not play players who aren’t in form. Petty is currently useless. Hunter should not have come in the team when he did. Disco is not a forward. 
     

    Petty is a complete liability at the moment and should be back at Casey. Is the reason he is playing is so that we can keep his price tag high? It isn’t working.


    We are not interested.

    Can we please drop Petty.

    Every week he gets two kicks.

    We just can't keep carrying him.

    McAdam too.

    We have no forward line at all. 

     

    I know he's a premiership coach, but when you consistently lose the same way the pressure is going to come on Goodwin sooner rather than later.

    • 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?
