    Langford makes a pretty poor blunder....but he's a first year player and that's normal.

    He hangs his head and looks dejected...

    But no-one comes up to give him an encouraging pat on the bum or a small dose of encouragement. And so he's allowed to stew in his feeling of failure.

    And that is how you create a long -lasting ****ty team culture

    Landford looks a mile off it, just wants a cheap handball every time he has the ball.

    Look again.

    Langford actually got some space on Miller then. And then a nice kick to Melky. He’ll get some confidence from that.

    Perhaps next week at training we could practice tackling in the hope that they may actually stick without the opposition breaking them so often.

    Looks like it’s free kick Gold Coast.

    Rowell was holding the ball, but no call. Doesn’t suit their narrative.

    you said you predicted the sub because our forwards stink, really implies you thought it was because of poor playing, not injury.

    They do play poorly.

    For a long time.

    Jake who I called for just booted a magnificent major.

    I'm struggling to understand what you are saying.

    Do you think our fwds are playing well?

    Not being argumentative here just trying to figure your comment out.

    Tx.

    Regardless of who is injured I claimed Jake should have been included as the best rather than the sub.

    Our fwd line has struggled since he went down 18 months ago.

    • 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?
