    This would have to be one of the biggest surprise selections of all time.

    Amazing that he is fit enough to step into AFL football after a week!

    Why, we need more run in the side. The 666 will allow more small players in.

    The tall sloths will struggle.

    Named back pocket? 

    I genuinely have no idea where he's been playing at Casey or what kind of attributes he has to offer the side.

    Anyone other than the bearded-one care to shed some light?

    Good article on Jay on his journey the past 18 months.

    Great first goal.   He could be the small forward we desperately need.

    He roughed up and crunched Joel Selwood a couple of times.

    Thats enough for me to deserve another game next week.

    Lockhart is about the only thing keeping  me interested at the moment.  Has kicked some lovely goals already.. has great goal sense.  I feel he may snag a couple of bags this season as he gets more comfortable and our mess of gameplan is (hopefully) sorted out.

    If Goody moves him from the forward line I will scream.

    I like this kid, he adds pace and toughness to the side. Just needs to work on his consistency

    Won’t be long before the club sucks the life out of him.

    Why do the supposedly professional organisations known as MFC & AFL still  list him in websites as number 0?

    They're waiting for another  '0',  to become available...  and the number  '7', mono.

    Then he'll be licensed to thrill.

    .

    He may also be waiting for a locker ?  ?

    He’s not used to the speed of the game yet - has been done for holding the ball at least once per game and isn’t in games for long enough. I like his attributes, but in my view it’s unrealised potential with a few cameos per game at this point. Would be developing in the VFL ideally if our first choice flankers in Hannan and AVB weren’t out.

    Has some footy smarts and shows some dynamic manic movement.  Love the attack and instinctive way he takes the game on.  Getting caught is part of the game, no problems with that as long as the awareness evolves over time and it becomes the exception.

    Give him at least 2 to 3 game blocks until he looks like he's ready to take on more.

    We need more of these types but taller, if theyre out there, to add some marking / intercept / spoiling ability, and manic gut running with some initial burst speed.  The marking side critical since losing Hogan, Howe and Lever (till he returns).

    Lockhart should own the vacant small defender role given Jetta is out until round 13-14.  

    He has shown his AFL standard. 

    He played there at Casey last year and shutdown a lot of small forwards.  Has class and pace and knows how to tackle.  Probably gets puopolo this week.

    Thought he was good all day, added something different.

    Previous weeks he has started ok and then faded, but he kept it up for 4 quarters today.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
