Both having quiet nights. Blakey.  Heeney. Gulden.  Too much run for port.  

If Grundy & Jordan get premierships medals they will definitely be laughing

I'd be rapt for JJ to be in another gf & actually be on the ground. But thinking ahead it would blow my mind if he became a 2 time premiership player

Well, obviously not playing that well then 

 

Luke Parker’s 5 th grand final. Time the AFL took away the NSW academies or at least out of the first round. 
 

It’s BS how much talent they get access to.

I reckon he just got held himself at the throw in but they let it go because of this.

L watch Grundy in the CBs... he only has eyes for his opponent and almost always runs over to where he is to place a block.  That's his first movement 90% of the time.

That's fine if he gets back to the ball and touches it (according to the guidelines and Razor Ray).

When he doesn't he needs to be called for blocking the opponent's run at the drop but rarely is.

They called him a few times in the first quarter and then put the whistle away after.

You could see Reg complaining as he couldn't believe someone was finally picking him up on this.

He's gotten away with it far too often, especially the first half of the season before some umps started to crack down a tad more.

Grundy 7 touches 5 clangers

Jordon 7 touches 2 clangers. although keeping Butters a bit quiet

Keep trolling away. 

How is that trolling? I don't think @Demonsone was talking about their performance in this game.

Its a fact that both wanted to leave the Dees to play in another teams best 22. They did and now they're both about to play in a premiership and have played their roles to get there... kudos to both of them.

Port have kicked 2.3 in each quarter

If they do it in the last Q it’ll be the first time in AFL history 

*probably, haven’t checked

I don't believe it is related to the academy. They have built a culture of relentless competitiveness. Have not seen a contest or a chase they haven’t committed to. Have seen Port, similar to last week, just not quite go hard enough when they've needed to. That is the difference between the Syd, Haw, Coll cultures and that of Port and us (amongst others).

Do I really have to explain? The same people saying the same thing for 9 months to provoke a response

Im beginning to doubt the poster is even a Demons fan. 

We know the story, Grundy didn’t work so we sent him packing, Jordon not best 22 so he left, fair enough 

Can we move on? or say the same stuff every week

So you think if you removed Heeney, Mills, Blakey and Gulden from their team they’d be in the same position?

They have a great attitude but They were gifted the above players that they would never have drafted.

Sorry, I didn't realize there was a backstory to that particular poster actually trolling. My apologies

This Port team is one of the most ordinary teams to finish 2nd.

Edited by Lexinator

It seems Port are playing like Melbourne- kick it long into the forward line and hope somebody marks it. Except they don’t.

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
