Oh well who wants to finish top 4 anyway. 
Our midfield should be ashamed of that performance. Viney has to get dropped. He’s a liability. Pickett likewise.

    Anyone who reckons the umps have screwed us is kidding themselves. You play 1 qtr, what do you expect?

    Trac, Oliver and Viney were ****house. Hunt should be dropped. [censored] decision to not bring in another tall

    Maybe what we need is a player in the forward line whose job it is to kick goals and that’s it….

    It's a four quarter game.  Where was the intensity in the first three quarters?

    As much as I love him, Hunt reminds me of Frost sometimes… incredible speed and gains a lot of metres but has the footy IQ of a goldfish

    Pressure and intensity way off in the first half, and got we deserved from a side outside the 8, yet again. Pisses me off, we are a better team than previous years, but the same old soft underbelly is still there.

    Unfocused from the get-go. 

    I don't mind if we have an eye on September. Don't think top two is as important as others. 

    We've stood up against all of the top teams. Next week is the real match. 

    Still, Ben Brown please.

    Or... just composure in front of goal, and we win yeah?

    Ease off - giants played very well. Our strengths came to fore in the last, we just didn't convert.

    If there’s one positive to be taken out of this, it’s that Richmond are out of the eight.

    Had our chances in the last 5 minutes but stuffed up the forward entries. Hunt had three brain fades in a row!

    We have issues. We’re in poor form. Our midfield is getting belted around the ball. We can’t score.

    Were making up the numbers come finals time if we can’t fix our midfield and forward line issues.

    When you play selfish football you lose.  We have lost that team first do what ever it takes attitude. 

    It wasn't a cracking game it was garbage.  We need a high quality mid

    • 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?
