Godfrey-Was Rarely Seen

Neither was his opponent. Did a brilliant job on Mr. Scott Thompson.

Bell- hope

McLean- hope

Jones- hope

Bate- hope

Petterd- hope

Sylvia- hope

We are going places if these guys are leading us every week.

I saw Brock stand on the boundary line and curse in anger when the Crows kicked a goal in the third. That sort of passion from our players, is what will get us moving forward.

 
Johnson- gOOD bYE jAMAR

Johnson - Strong over-head :lol:

How good were some of those saving marks in the defensive 50??


and in the last he was telling bruce and the others where to stand and where johnson to tap it

pure leadership!


Godfrey-Was Rarely Seen

Can't believe im going to stick up for godfrey here but the less we see Godfrey the better...

He absolutley smashed Scott Thompson..

And how good was it to see every time Thomposon (Demon traitor) get smashed by tackels every time he got close to the ball.

Fantastic effort!!!!!!!

Daniel Ward - Very very sufficient

His kicking yesterday was worse than usual... although he is becoming slightly more accountable, which is nice to see.

Still, the kicking is really REALLY awful stuff.

I watched the replay this morning expecting to bag Ward for all his turnovers, however there weren't actually that many. It felt like more while at the game.

Creates great drive and pace out of defence but accountability is the problem.

Undecided whether he's best 22.

Been the crazy person that I am, went to the game, taped it, came home and watched it, people who didnt look like they were performing actually were doing little useful thing around the ground eg Ward, Sylvia

Brown - can kick and was everywhere he needed to be. Helped push forward at times did great work

Carroll - back to form

Bizzell - welcome back had some rough calls against him by the umps though

Bell - flawless

Wheatley - another welcome back (another risk pays off for ND)

Ward - costly errors in last quarter, good for three quarters though

Johnstone - not at his best, sharp kicking

McDonald - always one of our best no exception this week

Robertson - not at his best, needs a few more games to get back into it, magic goal though

Neitz - LEGEND

White - killed the ruck, was everywhere played excellent couldnt find a fault

McLean - not at his best, needs more games like Robbo to play his best

Davey - superstar every week

Johnson - impressed me solid performance

Jones - hard nut (clearly the umpires dont think he has a neck though he got so many high tackles was crap)

Petterd - improving every week


Jones - great early on

Anyone who watched him at Sandy knew he'll make it.

I think ppl have underestimate what a great game he had yesterday. The Jones Mclean/Brock Jones show is underway.

Undecided whether he's best 22.

Not even best-25 IMO. Pretty lucky we lack pace or he would have played far less games the past couple of years.

godfrey pasted his opposition player all day. did his job perfectly. what more did you guys want. He is never gunna dash from the backline and smash through the midfield but he did Dominate in his position. Underrated performance. Brilliant game Godders. (not usually a fan of his but i'm calling this game as i saw it)

 
Undecided whether he's best 22.

imo he is not best 22. however he is a decent depth player who runs hard and breaks the lines and does offer us that element of pace we lack. if we have our best 23 fit and firing he wont be on the park. but we'll always ahve an injury or 2 so he will be always getting a few games. in all honestly i rather his poor but quick disposal than doggy brown stopping and propping and allowing the opposition to match up, but today brown had a job and did it well.

You should watch the last quarter again more closely. He did not hit one target by hand or by foot when he had pressure applied to him. He also did not contest with Welsh in a marking contest which resulted in a goal.

Its all great to say he didnt cough up his uncontested possesions but he is absolute liability IMO.

  • 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?
