Watched the game on TV, but what impressed me the most about Watts was he seemed to have so much time.

For example, in the last quarter he gathered the ball on the far wing, LOOKED BEHIND HIM[ learnt from Davey run down]

calmly kicked the ball to the forward on the lead for a gaol. A perfect pass on a day when so many passes went astray.

Lesson learnt get ball, assess those around you, pick out team mate and deliver lace out.

    I rekon Newtons past 6 games at Casey have been worth a recall. Throw him at FF for the rest of the year then make some serious decisions on his future. Putting him in for 1-2 games dosen't do anything for his confidence. Come on Juice get a bit of C*&^ into ya.

    Who cares how Watts plays for Casey just put him back up into the seniors. Needs more experience of the pressure and intesity at AFL level.

    Can they just give NEWTON another crack at AFL level please......SO HE CAN SHOW EVERYONE WHY HE SHOULD NOT PLAY AFL.

    No .....needs to play AFL so that we can convince the Swans that they need him at FF!!!!

    Sorry to disappoint so many of you, but Newton & Valenti won't be cut. Or Bail or Bartram or PJ for that matter. Over the next few years of thin pickings from the draft, we're going to need our current fringe players just in case one or two of them step up.

    Newton and PJ are contracted next year.

    Valenti cant get a game at MFC in a bog awful midfield. He is unlikely to be elevated and certainly wont be rookied.

    If Bail cant improve from where he is at next year then he will join Juice and PJ out the door at the end of 2010.

    Fringe players that cant press and hold their spot in a bottom ranked side are not worth keeping on your list.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
