In all seriousness, without carrying on, if this happens again next week is Goodwin gone?

Should be tonight…

My 41 week pregnant GF in labour would be a better option of Half Back than Rivers or Salem at the moment.

As they say, good delivery is all about knowing when to push forward with the momentum and knowing when to take the pressure off.

Hopefully the labour doesn't result in the nightmare rip from hole to hole like today's game has.

In a related note, the strange creature living in my wife's belly got more kicks during this game than most of the Demons did. Contrast couldn't be sharper because little one really lifted after half time.

Can you show me the way to Fumbletown?

Aren’t we there already?


11-19 free kicks.. questionable frees. However we have been terrible. Fumbling all quarters.

JFC the skills are just putrid.

 

Reverse the jersey and that's a ballup.


If we win a game this year I will be absolutely gobsmacked. There’s something terribly wrong with this team.

I’m actually curious as to what Goodwin is going to say about this. You surely can’t dish out platitudes after THIS.

Actually scratch that. He’ll talk about how good the Suns were and how we have to get better.

It’s the senior players letting us down here.

It's telling right? They don't believe or care for their coach.

He should say I am resigning, but he won't. So time for the club to man up and sack.

feels like Melbourne pre Peter Jackson and Paul Roos.

Anyone else reckon Aiden Johnson can play,??dreadful, dropped chest mark,Slow!

There’s no leadership though - how / who can make a call on the coach?

The President is confirmed as only seeing out this season.

We have only an interim CEO with the new CEO to be confirmed in APRIL FFS.

I wouldn't even say the suns pressure is elite but they are causing us to panick and become desperate with our disposals.


A ten goal loss. Someone needs to answer to this.

 

Just so many basic things we’re botching. Fumbles, tackles don’t stick…just not switched on and holding ourselves to high standards. Or even middling standards.

Underwhelming Van Rooyen, junk time goal, see you at Slthera central next week with Johhno and Fritta

  • 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?
