Not only are we watching the loss of the game - we are watching the loss of 5,000 members who won't re-sign!

    Has Rohan Bail ever been anwhere near the 50 metre arc and NOT taken a shot for goal. Pass it off, son!

    At least wait until J.Viney rolls out before making such a call.

    wattsup just seems to be another "heartless" supporter.

    Being two men down and totally bereft of scoring power, I can't see us winning this. In fact, I can't see us winning too much at all this year.

    Damn that was a hard finish to the quarter. Well done to the team to stop the scoring, but we needed to use the chances at the other end. Imagine what this will look like with a couple of tall forwards up there.

    I'll regret this comment but Frawley needs to have less flock ups before shopping himself around.

    the quality of the football is so bad, but at least the intensity was up in the last 10 of that quarter.

    watts, toumpas, vince, trengove pretty unsighted in that quarter.

    i don't think we can run over the top of them as we simply don't look anything like quick enough.

    i'm still on the saints by 20, unfortunately. was hoping i'd be proved wrong, but it really doesn't look it.

    Under 20 points at 3/4 time. That's new. The opposition is weak, and we should be winning if we took our chances. I just don't see this as heartless and pathetic. I think we have s good game plan and when we get a few back we'll be OK

    • 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?
