    Port have some big talent and are playing a good brand of football. This is making me feel even worse about our situation.

    JFC. Find something else to worry about.

    I hate this manufactured “rivalry” that’s come about from one silly interaction between Hinkley and Sicily last year. Proper rivalries are organic and take a lot longer to develop.

    Why can’t we just play a game of flippin’ footy without having to rely on drama to garner interest?

    Eh?

    This rivalry actually IS organic

    The players and the clubs genuinely don’t like each other, dating back long before Hinkley / Ginnivan / Sicily

    Soft free to give Hawks the last goal I thought. Port’s ball handling has been something to behold. It’s frenetic ball movement but it just keeps coming off for them, and their system means there are team mates always nearby to receive, unlike us. They are making the Hawks look like a bit like us. I suspect Mitchell will make a few changes and the Hawks will give it a big crack in the second half.

    Whatever comes out will get 1 day in the news, way down the runsheet then be buried. Cats get the best media run in the game

    the only other player that has gone to prison is benny cousins, this will all be much bigger then that of that what he has done or accused of is 1000x worse, the stengle incident and all that other bs will come out after it

    I can hear Wheatley already “incredibly sad day for a club that does so much right, to be let down like this must have Geelong people scratching their heads.. etc” before moving on and never mentioning it again

    I don’t recall any rivalry between them. But even so, the focus on the whole aeroplane thing is overkill.

    That paragon of football media, Paul Wheatley, I assume?

    You’re loving this, aren’t you. Revelling, I’d say. Happy as a pig in sch!tt. Giddy with excitement. Not even an hour ago another Demonlander messaged me to vent about posters who can barely conceal their joy at the position our club’s in. Your name was exhibit A. and not for the first time. I don’t expect you’ll rein it in, just wanted to let you know how cringe it is.

    Cheers happy jack 😉

    Started when they appointed Clarkson mid finals series, escalated when they poached junior Burgoyne, exploded with the finals series last year

    The clubs genuinely don’t like each other

    Lots of clubs genuinely don’t like each other but the hype leading up to the match isn’t off the charts like this.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
