good article. he seems to have a passion for playing for the club which is good.

interesting last line of the article.....i think it says a fair bit about where we are at. i think this is the mentality that we are entering pre season with and possibly the unofficial slogan for 2007. we certainly have a lot of ground to make up.....

    Bode was a shining light at the end of the year. It was refreshing to have something to look forward to in a terrible season. Especially when coming from where he came from, he said in the article himself that he came from "a long way back" -- that's a massive understatement. He was a true bolter, came from absolutely nowhere.

    It's up to him now to make the next step. I'm looking forward to seeing if he does.

    I can't wait to see what Bode produces with a full pre-season. Maybe he could do a Belly and come from no-mans land to becoming a token defender.

    Nice to see he has passion for his club, and teammates

    Bode has a key ingredient that most of our blokes don't have.....PACE!!!!

    Got better with each AFL game and I remember Frawley and Healy raving on about him during the Foxtel coverage of the Carlton game at the end of the year.

    One to look out for.

    He was originally expected to go to the Crows or Power in the Pre season draft of 2005. Hopefully he'll make them regret their decision.

    Still has a lot of work to do based on what I saw at Sandringham. His major problem is that he's a bit too onr-sided for mine. If he can do something about that then his career is on its way!

    Like this kid alot.

    Great pace as stated above and seems to have a cool head.

    Hopefully he can cement a spot early in the year.

    My crystal ball shows a breakthru year for him.

    I really hope he can trun into a quicker version of WCE's Priddis (i think its spelt that way ...if not who cares)

    • 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?
