Holding the [censored] ball on Motlop. A [censored] disgrace.

    Motlop dropped the ball. No free kick. Umpiring is pathetic trash.

    But also WAKE UP MELBOURNE! Don’t let them back in this.

    I don't like blaming the umps but they're keeping port in this. Motlop DROPPED the ball!

    Mind you, kicking straight to Alir is not smart footy. Brown was right behind him. Kick it a little higher, Jesus.

    Time to put JJ on Wines.  Viney looks pretty spent.  Lingers ...no need to panic on that kick.

    How was that not dropping the ball on Motlop?  He also threw the other one earlier two handed for the Wines' goal.

    Port player runs over the line under no pressure.  Not intentional.

    No rules for Port with ball in hand! Anything goes.

    Harmes bugs me so much. Ignored Petracca to kick straight to Alir. Stupid.

    Petty has been seriously good.

    He's from SA. amazing how ppl life lift playing at home

     

    What a great backline effort again. Petty again and again. May out muscling Dixon. Playing for each other.

    Oliver doing plenty, including getting back to support the defenders.

    Is wines playing?

    Jackson doing well, hard to match up on.

    Langdon again, good desire.

    Tracc finding the ball and space.

    Need more when we handball it, as we a missing the hit ups. Some great hands and clean footy from some.

    Generally, good effort by everyone, though a couple can still lift, Brayshaw, Spargo, ANB, Harmes, Gawn, Viney, Fritta. 

    Looks like we want it, and are in a good position to take it. 

    A few more unanswered goals and we take the crowd out of the game, till Ports second wind.

    Important quarter.

    Go Dees.

    • 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?
