Good to see Fitzy actually get a game and also get a mention in the 2s.

I presume he will be back in the 1s in no time - he needs to be tested and see what he can do, though he would be excused for being "out of touch".

How about

- Cook - looks as if he may not have played;

- Tom McDonald?

    No, they both played. Not as good as a month ago.

    Arrived about half way through the 1st qtr today and left half way through the last. Meaning I missed about 5 of Fev's goals and left thinking he'd kicked about 5!

    Was pretty disappointed with the individual performances of the Melbourne boys today. Thought our best would have been Evans who had a good 2nd half and worked hard, still didn't get a heap of it but had a good day. A real honest footballer

    Liked Jetta's game, didn't dominate but layed lots of tackles combined with 1 %'s and everytime he got the ball he looked class and use it beautifully

    Dunn was pretty solid. Kicked a few towards the end and finished with 4 goals. Put in a hard working, solid performance and would be pleased. Didn't think he tore the game apart however. Copped a bit from the crowd for the moustache!

    Thought Blease, Bennell and Cook struggled today. Especially Blease, really quiet periods and made some shocking errors, looked really frustrated on the bench… guess he was stuffed around a bit with MFC selection, sub and then dropped, wasn't too happy and a bit lost. Bennell and Cook very quiet but Cook did a couple of impressive things. Really not confident about those 3… Blease and Cook have improvement left though.

    Campbell wasn't great. Didn't dominate the ruck as he should have and was quiet around the ground. Really liked his 2nd efforts in the stoppages though.

    A really weird atmosphere down at Frankston! Some abusive supporters (that fev snapped back at) and a drum and trumpet to go with 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?
