Very good

Thorstrup. Tired second half

Langford Next big thing

Agree on Salem. Cost us two goals against and then without pressure hit their player between two of ours.

I’d drop him for McVee.

I'd swap Sparrow and Melksham. Langford and Lindsay both deserve more credit.

I can’t see why people label Langford slow, he’s quick to think, quick to react, quick to pick the right option, quick to get running to the right position, I don’t get it.

Unexpected pleasant surprise

Very Pendlebury like!

Some of the best footballers I've seen were supposedly "slowish". Williams (Greg), Robert Harvey, Paul Kelly.

Clarry had a few howlers today but he did a lot of grunt work, was pretty happy with him.

Yes at least 3 absolute howlers. Two cost us goals. His endeavour was unquestionable, and he gave his all, but there’s no denying that his execution was often poor.

Yeah but..... given what he has achieved for the club and himself and to bounce back from personal adversity, and recreate himself yep, at least he has done that! He may never be as good as he was but sheeiet he still is a damn fine player, a better clubperson, and I thought his last quarter was phenomenal, won Ultra hard ball, took a few massive hits and kept going. LOVE THE MAN!

Clayton was massive in that last quarter he sure took some knocks and never faulted.

Tholstrup - provided much energy (Until he tired - good return)

Played his best game for the year. That's the minimum we should expect from him not the [censored] he's dished up this year. We are a lot better team when he's playing like that.

  • 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.

    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?
