Pity that some of the cream from both states are going to be missing including SA’s number one draft candidate Jason Horne-Francis and Arlo Draper and WA’s Neil Erasmus, JVR and a few others.

 

Just realised the game is in SA, I might head down for a look.

Taj leading the disposals with 7 at quarter time. WA dominated the early part of the game but missed a few they should have gotten. Lead 2.6.18 to 2.0.12.


Started watching the 2nd quarter and haven't heard him called, what number is he?

Anyone else having panic attacks as a tall forward kicks goals, called Lucas Cooke

It's Lukas but yes, had a little shudder.

 

Taj a little quieter that quarter but has had 9 possesions so far - equal 3rd highest in the game. Looks OK without starring.

Even second quarter with WA 4.7.31 heading SA 4.1.25. 

Taj had a quiet quarter and was beaten to a few contests. I think he was on Burgoyne at times who is a pretty slippery character.

It’s a bit windy out there and the standard is a bit ordinary. I like young Sheldrick who is a tough competitor and Williams of WA is looking solid as a forward/ruckman.

Yes. Sheldrick is very hard at the contest. Reminds me of another player who wears the number  7.

He looked gassed with a couple of chase down efforts in the 2nd half of that 2nd qtr. Just keep in mind that these guys on the wing haven’t got a big tank yet. I still would like to see more though

If the commentator says 'through the agency of' one more time I might have to put my laptop in the washing machine.


3 quarter time and WA lost the lead but a late surge has them 9 points in front.

Taj got a few touches but the WA midfield is on top. Sheldrick continues to do well there for WA while Burgoyne for SA looks a definite player to me.

Lucas Cooke for SA has 3 goals - should have been 4.

Taj reasonably quiet for the statistician. He’s had plenty of game time. Scoreboard platters SA, WA should be a few goals at least in front. Very inaccurate. SA has a sniff.

We should draft whoever got number 22 over Taj.

 

WA win an exciting game by 10 points - 9.14.68 to 9.4.58.

Agree that Sheldrick was BOG. - he ran through and kicked the winning goal. For WA, Jack Williams in ruck and up forward looks a real prospect. SA fought hard but lacked the midfield grunt. Lucas Cooke kicked four.

Taj gathered the odd possession and took a nice mark late but most likely stamped himself as a late pick in the draft at best.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
