    Good to see Harmes and Kent back

    Indeed, for both. Harmesy has shown quite a bit in his first year so far.

    Goes to show how much attention I have paid to the rest of the VFL, didn't know Richmond had their own team.

    15 of our players listed with Casey. Must suck being one of their players right now. I guess it's a good sign that our injury list is under control for the moment.

    Weren't they originally the Lions before the alignment with Richmond?

  • Quote

    They started in the VFA as the Lions. Changed to the Tigers when they partnered with Richmond.

    When that partnership ended last year, they reverted back to the Lions.

    Harmes impressed me in a few of his games earlier in the season before he punctured his lung. The week before he was injured he picked up around 30 possessions and I had him marked down as a possible rookie elevation later in the season. I think he's ahead of Jayden Hunt who will need a lot more development time.

    Harmes, I think could possibly play AFL next year.

    Saw Harmes a few times last year for Country and the Stingray's. Had hoped we'd get him in the third round, so was rapt that we got him in the rookie draft. Courageous and generally makes good decisions.

    WJ, you must have missed Visy last week, in the mud where I thought Hunt would just got knocked out of the way because of his slight build, he actually picked up and took a big step forward, Brett Allison also agreed, that being said at training you can see why we rookied Harmes, hopefully he can pick it up again after a week off

    Also put this in a couple of threads, Clisby left training yesterday with what looked like tightness in his lower back/glutes/top of thighs, asked him and he said he was fine, but obviously isn't

    Casey 4.6.30 to Coberg 2.0.12. Evans and Kent best for Casey. Casey kicked with a strong breeze that quarter.

    Casey 7.9.51 v Coburg 6.2.38. McKenzie, Tapscott, Evans, Michie, Nicho all good. Blease lots of the ball but few if any contested possessions. Most MFC players in the game and contributing.

    • 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?
