Bull's right to play this week - gets a reprimand and 93.75 points to his record with an early guilty plea for his hit on Mark Nicoski.

    .. and they've lost Tambling it seems.

    Good for Tappy to get another crack. He was travelling well.

    Interested to note that if he does please guilty and accept the reprimand he is ineligible for the rising star award but I couldn't care less about that anymore. Based on what we've seen to date this year I think this kid should be promoted to the leadership group next year for showing a willingness to dish out some agression that has been so sorely lacking from our annointed leaders

    Really? Not at all? Not saying that I'm advocating for random acts of violence on the field, but more a willingness to be a bit more physical on the field.

    Although Brad Miller in his early days does come to mind and he copped a few suspensions before removing that aspect from his game so it can be a fine line to tread

    I would have thought C & B that the number other than Tapscott is 2.

    Pity it was not 8 or 9 or 10

    Did you hear Quartermain preparing the noose for Tapscott?

    Yes that's what got me...Channel 10 became the Match Review Panel, how many slo mo's did they have to show!!! I really wish the AFL should put a stop to that.

    Was going to say this too.

    Absolute non-event until he couldn't let it go. As soon as that happened you knew it'd go before the match review panel. I don't agree with it being reckless. Wouldn't surprise me if they've seen a big bodied 19 year old who already has a few big bumps to his name and wanted to let him know they were watching him.

    Bing I am not sure why you think Tambling not playing is something to celibrate.

    This is the same Tambling that could not get a kick at Richmond I believe.

    That is like saying "oh my god Bennell is out this week that's it we are gone.

    Sorry to be sarcastic I could not help myself.

    • 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?
