Well, there was plenty of disappointment in that.

Couple of error-goals, and a bit of weak running (looking at you, Frawley) that failed to cover an opponent ending in a goal.

Fascinated by Georgio on Naitanui, working hard, being just a little beaten repeatedly, but not being crushed.

There's some good efforts out there but the system and the whole-team running isn't happening yet.

Scoreboard is annoying.

Hurn off might be helpful.

 

Not really. He averages 12 touches a game. He just got 10 for the quarter, so that's his usual output but spread over a whole game :P He is definitely over-rated.

Disagree Trav

JKH who is a sub, and is yet to get on the field is currently on more Supercoach points than Jeremy Howe, who has just played a full quarter.

Mitchie is trying to create chances good on him.


Hitouts 15-4?? Oh my.

I see they had to sub Hurn out. Might help us lose by under 100 now!

 

Its sad.. how bad we look...


Why are our players not taking their chances? Bernie could have kicked that. Someone take the game by the balls and have a dip. We look scared to try.

Scars are still here Roosy..

TO THE MED STAFF AT MELB.....GET OUR FWD LINE ON THE FIELD!!!!!

How much longer does it have to take....!!!!!!


I've done me dough in my TAB account and can't even have a bet on the gee gees to save me from this [censored].

I had a good laugh at that one. Good call.

I am in the same boat.

Could we witness "186"

Agree. Should always have a shot!

AFL not giving us a priority pick clearly got it wrong.

Our list may look ok on paper but we're simply terrible.

 

We are really that bad!

'Scared to try' good description cowboy_from_hell

But you know what they say, the harder you try, the dumber you look when you fail. I fear that gets into the Demon's sometimes.

Sigh, there are some moments where we look competent, but it isn't lasting.

  • 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?
