How many lollipop goals have we conceded by getting sucked up the ground?

Didn't learn a thing from the 1st game.

 

Billings has often shown poor kicking skills, i am damned if i know why he was even selected.

What's with us not turning up when playing Fremantle? Twice in the season already.

Of course not having a ruck has killed us all around the ground, but the effort has been subpar compared to the last 3 weeks.

I just want to see us fight in the 4th, not just roll over. Percentage will be huge to have any chance.

It’s a little bit of effort but it’s a lot of them being just an awful match up for us.

They’re better than us and at home too. It’s not all effort or coaching or some other conspiracy. 

 

 Billings. Saints still laughing. He’s goalkicking his skills his tackles are POOR. WEAK!!! 
 

He can’t even score from 35 metre out!! 💩💩💩💩💩💩

He and Sparrow have a hopeless skill set

We are 100 miles of deserving to play finals.

This trade and draft period will be incredibly important to our success next year and in 2026.

As the new Tassie team and the northern state academy gifts swallow up the top picks for a number of years, we face an aging list without a ruck, key back and multiple elite midfielders, and that's not to mention no key forwards.

Nail this trade and draft period and we can compete again for finals. If not, we risk sliding back down to familiar cellar dwelling territory. 

One thing is clear, we cannot win another flag with this list

 

At least the Kidney Puncher (Pearce) is injured. Hope it’s his season. Karma for hitting Kolt you thug. 

Disco with an all time nearly day. Had first hands on over half a dozen contested marks and dropped them all!

I can understand them being better, specially if we don't have Max.

But see how we thought Brisbane would smash us and kick 20 on us? Then with dare and effort we almost won it.

At least make it a slogfest, low scoring proposition and see what happens. Don't let them kick 7 in a row.

Anyway, hopefully we can keep the score as close as possible in the last.

JVR has tried his guts out today

And to think, Roos apparently wanted to draft him had we kept pick 2 instead of trading it for Tyson and Salem

Lol just going for the ball Bowey and gets penalised.  FO

Clarry's been ok in patches around the ground and away from CB 


These umpires need to get in the bin and then let me set the bin on fire

  • 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.

    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?
