Roosy is going to earn his pay this Halftime.

We have to change attitude during the break.

Considering we pay him 78K per game,so he should!

i have no problem with his pay packet.
 

Tom McDonald is almost playing his worst ever game.

I've probably seen enough from Neville Jetta now. As much as I wanted him to make the grade, it's just not going to happen.

Yes

Yes

Sub Jetta off now he is simply not up to it.


Watts teammates must hate him

Imagine going into battle every week with someone so soft

Who's been harder than him this week?

They are all standing around watching.

What a shite team we are.

So many players should not play next week.

Can't even handball 5 meters and keep it flat, they shite themselves every time there is a little pressure.

Lucky Carlton were pathetic last week.
 

KH needs to be subbed. Hasn't got a clue how to contest, pressure or chase. Back to the magoos for more education

Mate we need about 15 subs right now.


Bail, M Jones, Mckenzie, JKH, Jetta hardly a possession between them

Not sure what role McKenzie is supposed to be playing. What happened to the blue-collar scragging, tackling machine we knew and (sometimes) loved? Looks lost.

I'm considering running onto the field so I get banned for life and I have a legitimate excuse why I don't have to sit and watch this rubbish.

Just so many ordinary footballers.. Clearance work is terrible. McDonald getting flogged. Dawes misses two sitters. Terlich kicking efficiency 28 percent.

Worse than the WC game. There, we were overrun by a slick outfit. Not true of today, we should be matching them.

Terlich kicking efficiency 28 percent.

That high?

Jones, Cross and Viney. Jones mostly inneffective wile on Ablett tho (who wouldnt be).

I expected us to be down by 4 or 5 at half time as GCS spread and generally run harder to make an option. That can be countered once the sting come out of their legs a little in 2nd half. But to do so we wld need to be putting a lot more pressure on them to get the ball back than we have so far, up the tackle count to wear em down (legs again). Also work harder to get the ball into the hands of guys in our team who can run and break lines (JKH, Bail, M Jones, Jetta, Terlich). Make them chase us (legs again) and bring the game back on our terms.

Hard to see where/who thats going to come from tho.

Howe to HF for mine. Leave him, Dawesy and JHK one out and go from there.

Dunny needs to stop the right flank outlet kicking. Too predictable. One option is Dawesy one out straight down the middle once in a wile. Mix it up. Take risks!!! Dawesy will beat Warnock one out 8 times outta 10!

Fingers crossed. Go Demons!!

  • 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?
