The team can't run. It's the difference between a team that can run and a team that can't.

4 day break.

It's only 24 hours less than what Port had, and we were at least in Queensland last week (they were in Adelaide).

Not sure it's that much of a factor?

    Let Pickett take a shot. 

     Pickett and Jackson look to handball every single time.

    OMac the classic or OMac 2.0 (Lever)?

    Rebuild may be hard when we gave away our top 3 pick in this draft already, and our so clever recruiter thinks he is smarter than he actually is.

    I agree. And yet I'm not entirley sure we have a choice. Tough decisions will need to be made. I'e Brayshaw, Viney, Salem. We're stuck with Lever. Work out how to get Josh Kelly to the club and go cap in hand to the AFL to help us lose Goodwin

    It's not necessarily about different methods, but it is about how dependent we are on CPs/clearances.

    If we can't dominate in the middle, everything else falls apart.

    It's not just contested possessions our gameplan relies on workrate. It has been non existent tonight, the players haven't given a yelp

    I have seen a lot of spineless performances by Melbourne over the years but make no mistake this game is up there with the best of them.

    Peahearted tackles, no running, zero football IQ, crowding around the ball, 4 flying for a mark. 

     

    Goodwin, just pack your and bags and go.

     

    And as for the umpires you can all [censored] off. I'd go as far to say that they're cheating.

    I'm watching Basic Instinct on Foxtel more thrills in 90 minutes than the last 2 years of watching this club.

    Anyone who is commenting on the umpiring is 100% missing the point. Nothing but a deflection from one of the worst performances we have served up in years.

    It's some of the best comedy blooper sport I've seen in years.

    Why can’t both things be unbearable?

    • 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?
