Freo are mentally done here. Sub out Jurrah for Bennell so we can really blow them away.

Good call

 

Despite a shocking year for the Dees a few players have really stepped up. None more so than Jack Watts and Steff Martin and I'm glad they're gunning it today.

That said, it's no great achievement to thump Freo at the MCG on a Sunday when we play like rubbish against Victorian teams.


774 just saying some bad things about Col Garland's ankle - anyone notice anything?

Maybe just as well that Liam hasn't been subbed yet.

 

Sounds like Garland has done the ankle again...

Swore profusely as he was coming off the ground and straight into the rooms. FFS, we can never just enjoy a game can we?

Hope it's the ankle and not the foot.

Don't like the fact that we missed two sitter goals from 20m at the end of the quarter. Could have put it right out of reach.


According to SEN...."Colin Garland has just limped off the ground favoring an ankle; right on the bell of 3 Qrt time"

Great another injury and to a quality Demon too :(

Yep heres to hoping it's the ankle, seemed to roll it. But didn't like the head shaking, he seems to know its bad. Pity because he has made a great return after looking underdone last week in the 2's.

Garland appeared to be walking quite freely as he returned to the bench prior to the start of the last quarter... so hopefully, it's more precautionary than anything else.



Damn this is getting ugly. Hopefully JW can snag a couple more! 5 goals would be a really emphatic statement for him today, he deserves it.

  • 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.

  • PREGAME: West Coast

    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?
