    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

    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.

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

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
