The knocking of Petty on the game day thread was really ordinary. What did people expect for his 12th game?  The poor bloke was clearly nervous, probably still gets flashbacks to that St.Kilda game. Thought he showed some promising signs in the second half. Others should reflect on how many games Weideman has been gifted to develop at AFL level, before knocking Petty in his 1st senior game since 2019. 

 

Frost: Past meets present!

If you could have Lever of Frost, there is simply no comparison.  A display of what ‘improving the list’ looks like.  

If thats the case regarding Petty copping criticism Chief, Im with you. 

He was brought in to fill a crucial role in a well drilled and functioning  back 6 after a considerable layoff with injury. Thats no mean feat.

He played his role competently and did everything he was asked 

Harry can hold his head up high.

 

 

Gawn - a phenomenal performance 

Oliver - inside work incredible 

McDonald - a wonderful target 

Salem - classy and reliable 

Petracca - damaging as always

Pickett - always super dangerous 

Jackson - frees up Max

Lever - rock down back 

Langdon - 3 clutch goals 

Rivers - reads it well

Hibberd - broke lines late

Viney - selfless team player

Brayshaw - courageous and tough

Tomlinson - super improved player

Brown - couple goals late 

Jordon - seems very tired

Melksham - junk time goals 

Neal- Bullen - applied great pressure

Hunt - burst from defence 

Spargo - tried his hardest

Petty - was shaky early

Jones - 300 then dropped?

  • 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.

  • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

    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?
