Ridiculously harsh on Salem & AVB.Ā Ā 

Salem was a rock & AVB was a terrific game for someone who hadn't played for a very long time and had very little VFL football.Ā  He had a big hand in 3 goal scoring chains and came back from a huge bump.

Way too complimentary on Gawn who had his worst game in hisĀ last 50 odd.

Jackson wasn't just a game, he was once again, very poor and justĀ isn't giving enough.Ā Ā 


Cannot kick straightĀ 

Miss set shots

You can insert any number of names in this spot

Need to learn to kick more goals, even if we could turn half of those points into goal would make a huge difference.

Viney: career worst form
Players: drinking own bathwater.
Goodwin: can't motivate players

Disagree on Gawn.Ā  He tried very hard.Ā  That chase in the third was immense.Ā  My Hawthorn supporting mates said they win by 4 goals if Gawn wasn't playing.

Last 3 minutes - More composure needed.

The only reason they drew was that he was getting clear hit outs and everything went to Mitchell, Worpel & O'Meara.

Also, can't stand the smiling and lack of intensity.Ā  The Captain sets the level of intensity and fanaticismĀ  Never see Joel Selwood smiling!

Generous assessment of May, he was ordinary tonight.Ā

I don't know who is a less convincingĀ kick for goal, Jackson or Oliver.Ā 

Will cost us finals, our sh*tty kicking.

Can we bring Bowey in for Brayshaw yet?Ā 

I'm usually the first one to pot the umpires but not this time. The game should've been over at half time no questions asked, but we slackened off for 10 mins and lost the game. That's on our players.

Picture this, 3/4 time, our premiership hopes are on the line in terms of a top 4 finish. We recognise that we need to start winning more contests. So what happens at the first centre bounce in the last quarter? A straight forward centre clearance and kick to Lewis who strolls in to take the mark and goals. Enough said.Ā 

It was a pea hearted effort by all players and coaches tonight.Ā

Don’t agree with many joeboy. Trac and Clarry were among our best and what was safe and reliable about May? Poor game imo

Very selfish game by Viney... 11 tackles! He obviously is trying too hard! 32 Disposals... He should stick with 6 or 7 toĀ warrant the criticism that the astute arm-chair critics of Demonland spit out! Only third for the team on metres gained... well that caps it off!

Viney : Equal Accumulate more DIstribute

Clarrie : Lower your eyes

Kozzie : 300 Set shot practice

Gus: 500 set shot practice

Brown : Stay away from TMac

Tmac: Stay away from Brown

Petty: Keep improving

You're too caught up in the stats movement. The turnovers killed us. Time and time again.Ā

  • 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 CampbellĀ with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprenticeĀ Will VerrallĀ 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.

    Captain Max Gawn still has a massive lead in the Demonland Player of the Year Award from Christian Petracca, Kozzy Pickett, Jake Bowey & Clayton Oliver. Your votes please; 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

    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?
