Shame re Jvr.

Gone from being a really promising player to a liability.

Has tried but only amassed two marks and zero goals.

Now there is a question mark over Jefferson but early days for him.

Melksham and Petty fwd would have helped.

Oh well.

I think this may be our season finished

But I liked our pressure for three quarters.

Kicked ourselves out of it with the umpires not helping as well but we had our chances.

Just a continuation of no decent fwd line.

Same old same old.

Why Turner wasn't moved fwd I don't get.

Goody gets set in his ways.

    Absolutely lost thisgame at selection. Fwd line abysmal

    Jefferson, Fritsch jvr all useless today


    Season over.

    You don't score on your dominance this is what you get.

    Dorks are pretenders don't care what anyone says.

    Fed up with 5 years of atrocious goal kicking, we waste every time.

    We should've won the game.
     

    Another game and another dysfunctional display by our forward line. It’s the same story every season.

    What a disappointing end to the game. Level at 3Q, in it. 5* goals loss and out without a whimper. Lame. Can’t blame that on umpiring.

    Yep Turner moved forward way too late and the Kolt should have been on earlier

    Worst thing this happened in 22,23, 24.... And so on.

    Nothing [censored] me more than seeing an opposition player get stuck into one of our young players and not a single teamate coming into help.


    When are we sacking our 'High Performance Coach'

    Oliver clearly not up to standard, we can’t keep covering for him means everyone else working twice as hard and we are cooked by the 4th qtr

    I agree our goalkicking was atrocious and we were generally sloppy but with better umpiring we’re up by 2+ goals at half and we are absolutely not tied at 3q time.

    • 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?
