I thought Fitzpatrick's duel in the ruck with stronger bodied Jacobs was very even. Jack showed more pace and agilty and is a good prospect for the future. Ironically, Jacobs was elevated and was running around in the AFL last night while Fitzpatrick is off to the VFL 2's. Can you go figure that?

    It has been said quite a few times already but don't read too much into Fitzy and Strauss going back.

    It definately does have to do with the finals, getting games into certain players to qualify and getting time into non-listed players so they are ready for the finals.

    A note on the finals which start next weekend:

    The VFL will announce the dates and venues for the first week of the finals tonight. At this stage, there's a chance that Casey will be playing it's qualifying final against North Ballarat in Ballarat.

    The game will probably not be televised as it seems the ABC will be doing the two elimination finals next weekend.

    Matty Bate kicks two goals within a minute and its back to a 33 point lead.

    Bate now has four goals and Miller has just booted his fourth.

    Make that 39 points.

    Three quarter time:

    Werribee Tigers 6.0.36 6.3.39 9.5.59

    Goals Bate Miller 5 Creed Healey MacReadie McGough Nicholls Plummer Taylor

    For those Demon fans who have had to sit thorugh their game v Port Adelaide, I guess it's no consolation to say that Bate and Miller are dominant in key forward positions here at Werribee.

    Matt Fieldsend playing a great game for the Scorpions.

    Halfway through the final quarter, a goal to Werribee and it's 51 points to Casey.

    Tappy not doing much. Could be off the ground again.

    The game has come to a standstill - Casey set for third place and Werribee playing out the season.

    Word here is that the qualifying final might be on Saturday at Box Hill - North Ballarat v Casey Scorpions.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
