Lester to Melk. Andrews fail

 

We could really do with a (in form) Fritch type in this forward line. Will be VERY interesting to see how he responds when he is subbed in.

Can Sparrow carry his bags?

Trac doesn’t seem to impact the way he used to. Has become very vanilla

Not committing to the contest. Hanging back. Losing too many 1 v 1 s and not hitting the contest hard or with any pace / momentum at all.

Simon needs to take him aside and have a word for the 2nd half. NO passengers mate

 

Brisbane too good, even when we do play well.

Gret team goal to Rivers


Why is a 33 year old, injury prone Jake Melksham our only forward who actually launches at the ball when going for a mark?

Everyone else tentatively stands there waiting for the ball to come to them?

Nice goal Riv

Turner Kozzi Melksham

have all been good

Gawn Rivers Bowey Trac

good enough

Both him and Oliver look like they need another pre season but even then might just be the new norm for them

Our skills picked up in the last 15 mins and as a result, we're still in it.

Putrid skills for the first quarter and a half, particularly kicking.

Who the hell is our kicking coach?

Nice goal Riv

Because most aren't natural forwards or have a forward's mentality / nouse.

I forgot about Turner before when i mentioned sending Macca up there for Petty.

So no need.

Swap Petty for Turner to have any chance of getting close on the scoreboard

  • 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?
