    Get off the coach's back. Look at what he had to use on the field tonight then you may understand why we lost.

    I hope you bring this attitude to Casey pre-season training PF. 🤨

    That’s an interesting way of looking at it. 🧐

    Watched him closely 20 kicks 10 where from kick ins . That he kicked high to a pack everytime. 7 rebounds from defensive 50 for 5 turnovers . I wouldn't expect any one to watch that Trainwreck again but if you did you'd see he was not good

    So another one who just watches games for mistakes?

    The 3 word is easy for this game, similar to a few others this season, that have occurred for a myriad of reasons, hopefully some of which will be rectified next season.

    Poor team performance

    I love cricket.

    Time  to take the gentleman's game more seriously - the Dees let us down again - so it's Shield and Test cricket for the next 6 months ... total refreshment! That should give those who represent us at the Club sufficient time to make amends, turning abject failures into tangible ownership of rallied hopes. 

    '24 was an absolute disappointment, footy-wise.

    If so it's disappointing.

    Maybe wise from an injury perspective.

    I keep thinking poor Milkshake in the last h and a round last year.

    But from a payback perspective not so much. Just saying.

    I reckon he shows a bit up the ground but has NFI inside 50. Could work if we had other really good key forwards to kick to but for now JVR and Turner are just learning so you can't tell me he wouldn't provide more value as a defender. Appreciate his effort, resilience, and 33% goal increase last week but his lack of scoring has been a dead weight on our forward line this year.

    On Petty I wonder if it would be worth trialling him as a 4th tall defender? 

    Could he do a job on small/medium forward? Does he have sufficient pace/dexteriety to match and then use his strength & height as an advantage? 

    If he could play that role, could TMac then be a relief ruck option from out of the backline (or maybe too much to ask...)?

    • 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?
