Fatigue incoming…………

Bombers to get the first couple of goals in the last qtr. Probably in the first two minutes.

I’ve read this book before.

    Not the first and won't be the last to vomit then laugh repeatedly when called out. It's a cheap trick, like rage quitting.

    Won't be round long, they never are.

    Let’s see how bad they want this win. The first 30 seconds and you’ll know.

    Last quarters have been our worst all year. This will be fascinating.

    I hope May roasted himself for that.

    Side note - umpiring has been noticeably rubbish this round.

    It's rubbish every round. Just consistently favours the same few teams.

    Much better quarter

    If we play like that in the last we will win easily. But what are the odds of that?

    Umpires getting involved, that was a mark for May if that was the Bombers it would have been paid.

    How about the Milkshake he’s great isn’t he!?!

    At least there was some effort and attitude that quarter. Is it too little too late?

    Need the same application in the last.

    At least that quarter was watchable. We might pull this off, but watching us is a total gut wrench.

    And well done Fritsch - to step up like that was outstanding. You too Milkshake and Spargs.


    Hat off to Trac in that quarter busted his gut. Lifted the side.

    Like the Perkins one? Clearly dropped.

    My advice. Don’t look at emoji responses. Some ppl get frills for baiting you. Frankly don’t invest to your posts on game day threads - ppl are emotion wrecks … like me..

    Was hoping so bad that we could hold out there and not have lucky break situation for them like that.

    This season is showing we fall away when faced with this situation but the what if is strong.

    Please just don't concede 3 centre clearances in a row.

    Shorter kicks = goals. Players leading up = goals. Players that can kick into F50 = goals.

    Until they pull out the 'not 15' card. Honestly, you can't beat em.

    • 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?
