Fullarton is a tax scam I swear. 

Reality is this year was [censored] as soon as we traded Grundy and brought in a guy who averages 4 hit outs a game.

    Can we just stop letting Freo look like a premiership team every single time we play them?

    How is this putrid stand for nothing irrelevant club  constantly having the wood over us?

    They wear purple and their mascot is a [censored] anchor. wtf!

    Yep Freo aren't Essendon.

    Dodged a bullet last week but Freo much better in ruck department.

    Goody made a boo boo.

    Not good but we are in it

    What game are you watching? We are getting [censored] in every aspect of the game. 
    we will do well to keep the final margin below 10 goals here 

    • Haha 1

    0.2 in a qtr is not good enough. 

    The truth is freo would be buoyed by the way they trashed us not even 2 months ago, so we’ll need a fairly dramatic turn in skills and mindset to make this a game.

    Pickett slow to dispose 💩

    Fritsch poor kick into F50💩

    Fritsch miss tackle 💩

    Tmcd too slow 💩

    Chandler miss from 25 metres 💩

    sparrow and Salem are passengers … one disposal each !!! 💩

    McVee 👏 may 👏 Langdon 👏riv 👏

    Agree - was thinking it’s like we have concrete in our boots.

    Well we have a lot of scope for improvement…

    Ir stick a skewer through their eardrums

    We look like vfl kids against the best team in the land. wtf is going on? we look nervous and scared

    they should be 8 goals up

    will we show anything? make a physical statement?

    not going off our history 

    You can tell the players didn’t believe they could win with no ruck. There is a notable lack of effort or desire. 
     

    The word uncompetitive comes to mind again. The midfielders are lacking intensity and Freo are just waltzing out of stoppage. 

     

    I don’t understand what anyone thinks Fullarton would have done. Have you seen him play?

    The issue is coaching. We know what they do. We saw it first hand 6 weeks ago. We had come in with a different plan.

    • 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?

      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?
