There's no stopping those entries when there's such poor pressure and easy outlets WW

no, but he's been so far behind georgiades since he went on to him at every contest that it's just embarrassing

 

When you deliver the ball like that inside 50, even a goddamn potato can kick 7 goals!

    Not sure why any of you are surprised by the cheats umps. We have been umpired out of 3 games this year. Make this 4.

    Another game soured by umpires

    Yes

    AND our inability to kick goals, set shots and snaps from 20 meters, by our senior players.

    Appears to be a serious lack of interest in correcting this disgrace.

    Why?

    This is on us. How many other coaches in the AFL would allow this many basic errors.

    The coaches aren’t kicking the ball

    Absolute disgrace that we've let a B grade forward kick 7 total

    As much as the players love Goodwin etc etc, it’s time for a change as it’s the same issues always raising their heads and nothing seems to change. If that upsets players, so be it.

    This Port dud is lining up for 6 goals. Embarrassing.

    Maybe, but he takes marks and kicks goals. I’d take that right now!!

    goal kicking again

    Broken record. Should have easily, EASILY kicked 4 more goals in 2nd and 3rd quarter. That would have locked in the momentum, and given us confidence and belief to finish.

    Very frustrating to say the least.

    Yep, poor skills. Can't mark can't kick...


    Ran out of legs each quarter.

    King birthday is catching up with us.

    Poor kicking.....blah blah blah...... broken record

    Lindsay sub a mistake. He’s the only player except Kosi who can hit a target under pressure.

    I really think it's time Goody moves on. I appreciate the flag very much and we came so close to two.

    But I feel he's just too stubborn and keeps doing things that don't work.

    And when he makes a change the game is usually done and dusted.

    I know it's not his fault quite a few have been ordinary today but his playing Petty forward for two years is the definition of insanity.

    And it's true we don't have the players that's in part on him.

    And our kicking at goal has to ultimately land on his shoulders as well.

    It's not unreasonable to change coaches at this point. I just don't think I can handle another year, next year without finals.

    “They’re not home yet” STFU Dwayne you moron! They’re 31 pts up with 6 minutes and we have a team full of window lickers!

    Should be realistic that he’s old as hell, sub only on 6 day breaks.

    True but I think I'm right in calling him inconsistent. He was four years ago.

    End of the year?

    That's it.....For the first time since 2021, I have turned the game off. Can't watch this [censored] anymore. Professional footballers my fat arzz. Uninterested prima donnas more like it.

    • 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?
