This season is dead to me. Just beat Collingwood and knock Maynard out next week, then go for draft picks 😂

 

That’s it for me

Hahahaha you’re surely kidding! Kick 5% straighter and we beat the pies you silly bugger! What an overtly ignorant comment.. but I feel your pain, It’s shizen it really is.. but it is also a one-off for the last 4yrs & that in-and-of-itself is a statement!

I mean — Darcy looking like Gawns daddy is actually real you think is it? Amiss is far too good for May is he? Come on bud, you know it’s silly! 
 

This comp is just so even, things are always on knife-edge and if you’re off, you get belted!!! Tigers can barely field a side that’s above VFL quality, then lost their one decent player & yet if not for even more inj and some poor conversion they’d of been 60+ ahead of Geelong at the cattery — Such is footy! But why do you get to cheer the l

Lmfao.  ......

Recruiting from other clubs is a fail this year …. McAdam, Fullerton, Billings

Not much better in 2023.

sadly this looks like its going to be our future going forward, we have been absolutely demolished by a running team. We are not a running team we are a zoning team and we just dont know how to man up. Everyone can see how to do this to us now. Goody needs to go, he is totally bereft of ideas and getting the team up especially for games that we should be winning. We had a window of opportunity over the last couple of years but dumb decisions on who to play and other things have seen us kicked out of the finals far too early. the way this is looking we may not even see finals this year.

 

Just before the game the club sends me a monthly reminder of my membership coming out.

How bout the club reimburse the members back with that 💩 they just dished up.

 

Care factor waning.

I mean the players don't seem too.

Apologies to all those who flew up.

Can we please send Goodwin via bus/coach back to Melbourne?

Doesn't deserve to take the plane, and take some of the players too.

Go via Adelaide and drop Petty off.

Absolute bottom of the Barrel Fail, compared with who we let go…

Yes the body language is really poor that’s absolutely true & is a worry but then.. imagine playing in this.. wld you be up and about?

don’t forget we lost 2 best 22 players before a game was played.. that we had no chance of replacing due to them being post-post-season! We’ve got holes but we’ve also got plenty of talent to re-load with even IF this year goes pair-shaped!

Blues supporters were burning their memberships this time last what, LONG down and beaten, no evidence at all of it being darkest before the dawn.. GWS even More so — they had a new coach close to sacked.. how’s that work out?

Mercy me why do some feel they have the privilege to just bash a club they allegedly support while others must suffer & grin and bear it? Have some civility & poise, that’s all I think the club would ask.. don’t be the blues fans that had to ask for a new membership card for finals tickets cus they ‘lost it’..

I really appreciate your words mate but it's just not going to get far today.

In a few days it might be the perfect post but you could be wasting your energy right now and I don't want positive energy wasted.

Does Simon have a house in Adelaide? Maybe he can also stay there?

To make this even worse I don't know what changes we can make.

If you watched Casey yesterday you’d know we are heading for a dark place - little to nothing back there to get even remotely excited about

Let him walk. The exercise will do him good.

Freo backs possesses and chip and no pressure

  • 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.

  • 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?
