Glad you loved everyone this week ! I certainly did.

Disagree on Grimes, always gives his all but he was a liability at times today. Otherwise, pretty much spot on. You can bet your bottom dollar that every game we win under Roos will have everyone playing their part. A gun coach.

One bad clanger does not make him a liability.


I thought Salem struggled a bit in his first full game today. Eight possessions, He got caught twice in tackles when I thought he would sense the player coming behind him. Got pinged on the second one which was appalling umpiring but I expected him to slip that tackle. Anyway early days, probably struggling for fitness levels at this stage.

Grimes should not be taking kickouts, nor should he be used as a short target when someone else takes one. His kicking just isn't suited to that situation. He seems to be better in general play than he is with those spot kicks.

Got pinged twice, incorrect call on both occasions. I think he may have run over that Umpire's cat.

My main point was I thought he would be able to slip both tackles but he kept running in a straight line and got caught.

N jones- two brownlow votes

Pederson- one brownlow vote

N.Jones - inspirational and tough

Grimes - interceptions and turnovers

Salem -just a game

Watts - reward from running

Toumpas - steady not brilliant

Dawes - intimidating physical focus

Viney - tough natural footballer

Tyson - poised midfield machine

Dunn - clam, reliable, effective

No duds today!

Bitter, this is the difference. We have had some players this year to have shockers, but in the main we are producing an even spread of team football across the 22.

TERLICH. Still not sure

M JONES. Hit and miss

Mc DONALD. disposal a worry

TOUMPAS. Wasted draft pick

you don't give roos much credit do you

look at the 'duds' he's already turned around

come back in another 10 rounds and then make your big prognostications champ

Not sure why you bother.

Writing toumpas off after a bit over season, McDonald just 21, jones in his second season, Terlich in his second full season.

Amazing.....

some peeps are getting a bit carried away

we were very, very lucky to win today

and our opponent wasn't much chop at all

a lot of our blokes did not have a great day

obviously I'm rapt we still got up and it's another 4 points but sheesh we didn't climb everest today, let's keep it in our pants shall we

and never forget the false dawn of 2010/11

ok had to say it.. as you were

PICKET FENCE!? Just my opinion!

10 Rounds, what about the last 50 years ?? I'll give you the fact that yes, some duds have been very very good .. But after 50 years how's your patience,??

I don't think we were lucky today. We deserved to win.

I would suggest some of our players didn't have a great day but here's the thing.... In the past we had a whole lot of players who were poor...actually liabilities. Today Salem was quiet as was bail but neither were poor or a negative to the team just little impact.

I don't think anyone here is saying finals ... Just enjoying the win..

That's my say.

  • 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?
