It’s a shoot out.  More goals please

 
 

Frustrating basic mistakes from our defence. Oscar and Wagner spoiling to dangerous spots and Fritta wrapping a bloke up for no good reason.

Just little things they all need to be better at.

Baikey Fritsch dhould have been dropped straight after the west coast gamd

He would surely have been dropped weeks ago if we weren’t scraping the barrel for fit players.

This is our best first quarter this year, with 6 minutes to spare.

First time we've kicked 5 goals in the opening quarter.

    Our coaching dept is stubborn and dumb with the fritsch back thing. 

    And while I'm at it, Brayshaw kicking on his left at every opportunity is winding me up. He butchers it on the left

    We have no backline. Who replaces Fritsch down back?

    They got Stretch in there too now. Desperate times.

    Was about to say that 640. Though the longer it plays like that, the more i'd fancy the Crows kicking more goals.

    Garlett should have 3 goals this quarter. His misses have been shots he should be kicking.

    8 scoring shots to 4 but only a 9 point lead, too.

    How many years has Garlett not been able to kick set shots?! I feel he’s had 92460 years playing AFL. 

    Stupid from Harmes then. 


    Just maybe GWS did not lie down last week. They didn’t today

    And two of their goals have been hand wrapped presents.

    Jones needs to learn that he is now an older footballer and has limitations. Play within them and kick to a team mate rather than always kicking to a contest.

    Well this is much more like what we saw last year!

    How good has Brayshaw looked this quarter??

    • 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?
