For anyone watching at home, which going by the crowd was most of you, was JVR a tactical or injury sub?

    Really hoping that Clarry and Viney put on ice. Jack was enormous early but faded. I suspect both require surgery so do it now. I'd add Max to that list but not happening.

    Another who was perhaps unwell, or was suffering the effects of? He certainly looked pretty rough on the bench.

    Yes that’s very possible. He looked stuffed trying to get to the bench. 


    CLARRY DEFINATELY UNDER THE WEATHER IS MY INTEL, Plus a few others as well!

    Lose to GC and beat Collingwood and you've got a deal.

    From what Goodwin said last night after the game, it sounds like he isn't going to put away any players. 

    Against Collingwood I'd put any of our top players away cause who knows what they'll do

    Giving games to the youngsters has to be the go. It's what end of season dead rubbers are for.

    We are already playing plenty of youngsters. Throwing them to the wolves without the protection of senior players is not the way to end the season. Hoping for no more injuries so those still standing can hit preseason with intent. 
    that said, if moniz is good to go, would like his speed back in. Good to see Howes and hore back in, but hoping MC picks whatever side matches up best to win rather than experiment.
    Or throw fritta to halfback to see which media needs to lay the boots in, for funsies.

    Remarkable result given that, which is what many of us suspected.

    Jeffersen for Melks

    Yeah Melk could be on the chopping block for team selections this week. 

    3 disposals against the doggies previous week and was pretty ineffective as a sub.

    We need to bring in Ray Biffin and Rod Grinter to play on Moore and Maynard.

    • 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?
