    15-1 Hawks after 17 mins. Hawks have had five scoring shots to one.

    I've noticed with Matt's tweets they get further apart as we get further behind...

    21-1 early. Obviously struggling to get the ball forward. Jones is back on the ground after the Lewis hit so that's some good news.

    Couldn't agree more Mono. It is because of supporters like Allen Jakovich who won't fly home from Thailand to watch a practice match at Casey that Port Adelaide has signed 150,000 members.

    is it sad that i'm lying on the couch, hitting refresh every minute, watching for updates of the game?

    i gotta get a girlfriend.

    I have a wife and am still doing the same thing. At least you don't have anyone nagging you to get up and do the dishes from lunch.

    we are one of the worst, playing one of the best, if not the best, this is all as expected.

    Never said it wasn't to be expected, just pointing out that we are no doubt struggling to get the ball forward, particularly with our 3 first choice talls not playing.

    • 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?
