In breaking news... the HFC have turned back the clock to go out in solidarity with the Demons.

    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: 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?
