3 goals in a half of football is pathetic. Wouldn’t happen if this game had of been played on the G. 

We're lucky this isn't at the G mate. The score might have been worse.

    Cannot remember seeing so many blokes panic with the ball and almost not want it in their hands. Worst performance for a long time.

    Watch for the comeback and lose by 2-3 goals.

    We have gone downhill since our coach stopped partying with the players.

    Nothing to do with the coaches. We've managed to paper over the cracks for a while but Oliver missing the pre-season and down on form, Trac needed up forward because we have no key forwards, losing Brayshaw, Lever out ... it just goes on and on. JVR in for Turner next week but deck chairs.

    Of course it’s on the Coaches. This is all preparation, NOT BEING READY FOR THE CONTEST 

    We are more interested in having a nice weekend up north

    Lol absolutely would have. We kicked 3 in a half against the blues in the G 3 weeks ago, and the same against the cats the week before. The venue isn’t the problem the team is the problem 

    Wasn't it the same against Brisbane?

    I think I might petition to have no Binman on the pod this week because I just can’t put up with 2 hours of this isn’t our midfield’s fault.

    He has a podcast?!?

    Playing like this reminds me of the horror decades

    We have definitely lost that hunger and mongrel we had in 21.

    This uninterested mob will struggle to even make finals this year.

    Not trading Petty to Adelaide is one of our bigger list mistakes in a long time

    He’ll become superman when he goes there and kick ten goals per game.

    This sort of performance is very disheartening for the supporters, and of course it had to be a week before the Huge clash against the filth. 😮‍💨

    Dropped 7% in a half of footy.

    My only interest in the second half is whether we can salvage a bit of percentage of back. 

    GC can even replace us in the 8.

    Good, we don’t deserve to be there

    Coaches can only work with what they have. Look at Clarkson at North.

    It's the players and the list.

    • 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?
