    Calm down Donald!!

    "Grab A Snatch And Hold It" is a great song by a 60s/70s Aussie band called Chain.

    That was good stuff in the pocket from both Spargo and T Mac. Good signs this late in the game.

    Hogan never played as a ruck so there’s not much to see based on today 

    But i am speaking in terms of marking

    He has to hold them otherwise he won’t be useful as a Fwd either

    My concern with Weid despite him not being a ruck is that he can't stick marks. 

    Which is a more than fair observation, but pretty harsh for people to be having a crack at his ruck work today.

     


    I think if you add Fritsch into this forward line it starts to look fairly dangerous, I like what Kozzie brings with his pressure and nous around goals.

    Brown and Weid to fight it out for the second tall role with Brown ahead at the moment in my opinion, Weid hasn’t had a chance today to show what he can add up forward tho in his defence

    Perhaps settle down a tad re Weid. It’s a first hit out. Some of the best forwards in the game can’t stick their marks early.

    I think the main thing to learn out of todays game is that people will now be scrambling to get Trac into their fantasy teams.

    Trac has had a f*cking huge game. 38 disposals, 3 goals, 185 fantasy points. That must be the biggest game by a Demon in many years. Lets hope increased fitness and midfield time sees him become the great player we all know he can be. Very exciting!

    • 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?
