Went off in first 5 mins with a knee - we are waiting to hear more. No word yet. Melky subbed in.


At the ground. The awful thing is how each of our failures/breakdowns/errors you can see coming a mile off. Like watching a slow motion car crash. The question seems not to be whether we can correct, cos it appears soooo unlikely, but how much worse we’ll get. Currently an opposition’s dream.

Yes do your blood pressure a favour … errors and turnovers killing us

Suns' pressure factor has been ranked poor (137) but we were still unable to capitalise. Teams may start to realise they can save their energy when playing against us...and then use it all on counter attack

To be fair the there seems to be more urgency from some but for a core group of players that not only played in a premiership together but have played many seasons together we have little cohesion.

Not taking our chances just saps belief. We can’t kick goals. So draining


Carlton will also be looking for a new coach soon if we want the best available….

Just asking

melksham subbed on already

Predicted this.

Cos our fwds stink.

Just tuned in but since I just read Bowser was our only goal scorer than I'll stand by this call.

Really really smell.

How about giving a toss lads?

Is that really too much to ask for?

This may be our last hurrah.

And Goody's.

Wait until the noise on Monday if we lose.

  • 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?

  • 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?
