Casey enter 50 and get repelled, enter again and get repelled, enter again and get repelled

Sandy enter once and goal from a nice pass to a player on a lead.

Sandy 9 scores from-14 entries

Casey 7 scores from-21 entries

What the [censored] has happened to our entire club?

I think it is us trying to create a makeshift forward line. Really we have 1 key forward at the club - the rest are defenders come forwards. Bedford played a lot of mid as a junior. Garlett who is a forward is injured. I’m starting to agree with all the posters who say we need o draft forwards.

    It is sad. Like the bloke - just feels like he’s been told.

    Never really looked comfortable at AFL or lighted up a game in the 2s

    Keilty is a potato. Dunkley shows very little  at this level. Not sure what he did to warrant senior selection. Every game I’ve seen him play has been average. JKH comfortable at this level. Preuss is not accountable and way off AFL level. I like Jordon. We have nothing to be excited about coming through our list. We simply have no depth.

    What an indictment of the coaching staff that they persist with the push up gameplan at VFL level.

    At best it teaches the players how to wrestle.

    How about a bit of skill development.

    Game is worse to watch on TV than at the ground and boy they have been poor spectacles in the main this year.

    Cannot be bothered with the second half. Out to catch some early afternoon sun

    the Sandringham/mfc relationship was not a great one. Should we have stayed around and worked on it... who knows. IIRC we were one of the first shared teams and it was purely a cost saving exercise. Strangely enough the old MFC reserves team were reasonably successful but it never really seemed to flow through to the senior team

    The VFL is struggling and becoming increasingly irrelevant. Enjoy it while you can is my thought.

    Spargo and Hannan not playing is symptomatic in the sense that teams are looking at fitness regimes other than match practice to re-invigorate players.

    If it meant having Sandy as a home base we likely should have made it work. Good ground for training and watching , great location for the players

    Saints have never used Sandringham as a training ground.

    Not sure why but I suspect the ground is too small and has cricket obligations during summer.

    Sandringham were fiercely independent when we were aligned with them. It was a battle to develop our younger players.

    WE MISS MARTY!  WE MISS MARTY!  WE MISS MARTY!   Must be picked to play next week against the Tiges.

    Preuss would have been handy yesterday just needs game time in the AFL.. We had nothing to lose playing him.

    There is no system play in the VFL sometimes it is like a free for all. Preuss has to chase his own ball.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
