    JVR or Jefferson done much ? 

    JVR (blue) was not oustanding but competing hard IMO.  Rewarded himself with a goal from 15m while being tackled after a contest and collect.  Jeffo (white) and AJ (white) really didnt see much of it while I was there.  White held up for the first 10-15 minutes but the last i saw they were down 14 to 60 odd (? really wasnt paying the score much attention) late in the third.

    McAdam possibly ahead of Jeffo for a round 1 spot by the sounds?

    That’s a Picket Fence nightmare right there.

    Would say so. I’d probably have AJ ahead of Jeffo too, though note that neither AJ nor Jeffo swapped onto the ‘A’ side during the last quarter.

    Apparently injured?

    Yes, McAdam injured his leg and took no further part in the match.

    Rivers played on-ball all game.  He didn't play in defence.

    Bowey played defence all game, despite his goal.

    If I get time I'll add some more thoughts.

    Was he helped off or walk unaided? (sorry, too soon?)

    There's footage of him being carried off by 2 trainers on 'myheartbeatstrue' instagram page, he wasn't putting any weight through the left leg

    The real question is did he walk off himself or was he carried off by the trainers? 
     

    Joking joking, in all seriousness I hope he’s okay, poor bugger just can’t seem to get a run at it

    Roy George here we come. Seriously I hope McAdam hasn’t done anything beyond a minor sprain and will be back on track in a week or two. Fingers crossed.

    I reckon they'll go with Jai Culley if the opportunity arises, he's been very impressive from what I've seen.

    • 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?
