How was that a free to WCE right on the siren? Luckily one of the brain dead umpires stopped it.

    Jackson, Gawn, Brown, Lever, May, Petty, all been very good.

    Talls standing up in the wet is very good to see.

    Kelly is a bit too dangerous for my liking - I'd want to see Harmes go to him.

    Bowey still as clean as you'd hope to see from a 1st year player.

    2 goals outside 50 what can you do.

    Kennedy's kick for goal though, complete miss kick.

    Not pretty but I’ll take a 14pt lead in Perth a quarter time any day. A bit more clinical finishing and we could be further in front. 


    Interesting quarter.  We looked good to start but then the umpires started to exert a bit more control on the game and swung it the home team's way. 

    Bowey has been excellent. Playing in that cesspool listening to the Booers in the wet, and he’s looked very clean

    Yeo and Kelly got off the leash that last 5 minutes. Some lazy efforts by Petracca in not standing next to Yeo at the stoppage.


    Thought West Coast did well to stay in touch with their 2 good goals 

    They are at it again.Time differential to kick from stoppage.Blocking off the ball.

    Some one tell the umpires it’s wet weather footy. An arm in the wrong place that does not impede a WC player should not be a free.

    Good stuff so far. They started to get the initiative back late, but what I’ve liked is our forward fifty use. Eyes down and in quickly. If no mark is taken, then we are keeping our heads when the ball hits the deck.

    Their goals also have been earned. No softies.

    Let’s get this done!


    Deadset has there ever been a worse sports commentator than BT?

    Has a CLOSE UP of Hunt getting treated on the sideline. Zoomed in on his face: “Langdon getting treated here”.

    Petty just about has his jumper ripped off him: “Call against Petty here I reckon. Oh it’s going the other way!”

    Just quit you oaf. Quit today and never return.

    Is Darling even playing? Wearing a Lever blanket to keep him warm

    I've seen too many games where he's made us pay. Really enjoying this so far

    • 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?
