    I'd sub Brown dog for Petty here 

    Petty OFF.
    Brown ON.

     

    Why is Goody delaying the sub with Petty's foot like that? Honestly, Goodwin's boneheaded use of the substitute does my head in.

    Disco's best game in the red & blue so far.  Taken two fabulous contested outlet marks on the wing so far pushing up high as a 3rd tall forward.

    Didn’t quite maintain the dominance from Q2 obviously but kept in it and made sure we have a base to work from in the final quarter. Had petty kicked that one he really should have kicked it would have been pretty much even for that quarter, which would have been fair.

    Need to take our chances in the last and keep up that pressure.

    Petty rucking is insane 

    Yep you'd be better off not nominating and just have an extra medium or smaller speedy player like Brown dog around the stoppage than Petty going up.

     

    We really needed to take those chances to Langdon and Petty. They are coming and we just need to throw all we have left at em and take our opportunities to hang on. Come on Dees. You can do it.


    Umpiring deplorable.

    May said to Umpire 12 “ you are a senior umpire how could you pay that”.

    That is 2 goals from blatant howlers again.

    When are we going to get a few mistake goals our way?

    Blatant holding the ball against Bailey. Shocking not decision

    BT mistaking Sweet Caroline for Country Roads just about sums up his commentary.

    We got this. You can tell they're hungry.

    I hope we win from here but even if we lose I'm so incredibly proud of our effort. If we keep playing hungry like this we won't be a write off. 

    Those bagging out Clarry I hope you hang your heads with shame. He has been so good tonight.

    • 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?
