Looks like we have put the cue in the rack for 2024. No effort being shown & they look totally disinterested.

@binman was still doubting we were done last week. Hopefully we can now focus on season 2025.

    Just watching Garcia get into Oliver off the ball & koltyn just stepped right in and stuck up for his teamate.

    So why would it be ok in the last two rounds to cue in the rack it - considering the context of injury and where we are at - but not now? It makes not a jot of difference - and we’ll stick with pick 6 thanks 🤩

    Viney and Oliver have been absolutely abysmal.

    Our midfield is literally Trent Rivers right now, insane.

    So many unlikeable little [censored] in the Dogs team. Hope they get thrashed in the finals by GWS or Freo.

    Turner is gonna be a player 

    Yet Goodwin starts him as the sub.
    Genius.

    Empires rise and fall.

    The dogs star has shone again.

    Maybe we will next year.

    Need some savvy recruiting this time in terms of second hand players.

    And a lot on our list need to pull their fingers out.

    And some good luck. Some big injuries this year and all the wrong times.

    We live in hope as Dees fans again I guess.

    This season can go and get ....

    Including the umps 

    2025 here we come.

     

    And one heck of a pre-season

    • 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?
