Jeffo having a nice game, some good marks around the ground

He is. A fence will be erected if this keeps up

Bombers have upped the pressure?

Definitely. Pretty close game.

We're still working and pressuring hard but our general disposal around the ground has become really sloppy. Lots of turnovers starting to cost us.

Jeffo is looking pretty sore after a big hit.


 
Just now, whatwhat say what said:

culley will definitely be in trouble for that tackle, even tho it was a complete accident and nothing he could do to protect the bloke he was tackling

Yep. 2 weeks I reckon

Gee Fullerton is an ordinary footballer

He is not even that!

Shiel is putting on a clinic, but how he cannot get a game is surprising. They have some big, strong key position players showing up Jed as he isn't big enough or strong enough. I dislike bagging a player, but Fullarton should drag himself and go and have a shower right now. He doesn't want any body contact, fumbles, cannot take a mark and is embarrassing himself. Therevare a few Casey guys busting their guts and having a go. He is not. Culley isn't getting in the play and that tackle will cost him.

I gotta say, in general the commentary on the VFL coverage is so much better and relaxing to listen to than the [censored] in the AFL.

Give me the likes of Jason Bennett and Ben Brown any day.

I've just flicked over the the Norf and Flogmantle game and have had to drop the volume by 50 percent.

They don't need to yell at us all the time

hendo and fullarton have been quite underwhelming the last few vfl games i have watched

Agree, particularly Fullarton, he is loathe to commit to body contact.

Unfortunately he played basketball through his formative years and can’t get it out of his game, has height and pace but not the ability to impose himself on a physical game, sad really he seems like a great person.

Jeffo does some nice things but geez, he's not much bigger muscle wise than Kalani!

Here watching live. Liking Jeffo tonight; looks comfortable As “the guy” up forward. Cross likely also.

Fullerton not liking. Needs to crack in more.

We have ALOT of similar mid size types - need some more X factor. Smith handy, Laurie amazing goal, Hendo ok in bits, Bonner gets a lot of it - sweet kick.

Liking Verral game also. Using his body well. Young White is a bean stalk - very very athletic. Hope he makes it as a ruckman/3rd tall.

Adam’s got done a few times that quarter.

Bombers having a real go.

Go Dees

Gotta think this will be a close one.

Really disappointed with our hacking kicks out of defence last quarter.

I reckon we're kicking to the scoring end this quarter and we need to be 3 goals up at 3 QTR time to hold this.

Is there a a bit of a breeze to that end?

Jeffo looks great. Hitting packs, leading up hard. Even a good one-grabber in there

Sshh, Pickett Fence will explode.

  • 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?
