Another tough game ahead for the Demons at a time when they need to win every game to make the finals.

 

Great first quarter effort from the girls. hopefully they can keep this up

Umps are ****house

 

10 out of 10 for effort and application that half.

you would think the Crows superior fitness and brute strength will see them home in the second. They have been very wayward though so you never know.

Hanks Hore and Bannon been very good. Gall has done well also

That holding the ball was a square up for the 50 they missed.

very poor set shot from witherspoon from the free

certainly can't say these have been home town umps. giving us plenty


2 points to 1.5 in a half of footy. Not exactly the most exciting type of footy being played atm.

We don’t know how to score, whilst the Crows can’t find the big sticks


Outstanding win. Abbey Holmes devastated.

thriller diller

Hardly a thriller, but I’ll take any win over the Crows in SA.

magnificent win

its wasn't pretty but we fought like lionesses and deserved to win against a very blunt crows team

We got the rub of the numbers, but there were still a lot that I thought were shocking. 50s not paid when colliding with a player taking a kick, and when holding the ball and arguing with the umps instead of giving it straight back. The "insufficient intent" against Fitzsimon was a shocker too. 

The overall standard of umpiring is very poor if this is the next best umpiring squad outside of the AFL umpiring squad.

Bizaycomment for mine. Might have been low scoring but it was an enthralling battle around the contest that was only a kick away from a lead change the last 2 quarters. As a spectacle, it was hard to look away. Every moment, every contest counted.

  • 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?
