Nothing gives me the s--ts more than knowing there are blokes in red and blue jumpers playing football somewhere and I am not allowed to see it. It is impossible. I notice last week the Richmond Football Club organised a live stream of their practice match vis their website. Why can't we do this? Why the hell are we in tassie anyway? I don't understand why the first round of the NAB cup is considered TV worthy, but any games played by the losers after that are not TV worthy. Why don't they just make it a 4-week round robin thing where every game is televised?

the worst part is there will only be about 3 people to witness it and give us an account of what happened

    deep breaths. if i can get out of work early enough to drive up the highway to make it for the game, i'll provide updates. i'm sure some of the other regular tassie posters will be there, and will keep everyone updated.

    updates, while appreciated, just aren't the same

    Totally agree a round robin for 3 or 4 weeks would be much better. Anyone know if the live commentary / updates will be done again on the Melbourne website?

    And yeah I also asked that last week, if Richmond offer a live stream why aren't other clubs? hmmm wonder if the Hawks will?

    • 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?
