his decision making worries me

You’ve just gotta be joking. His decision-making and disposal are easily top 5 in this team. Have another look.

    Gave me a heart attack again. So glad we won. Class performance at the end after some lazy efforts.  Looking really strong now. How they come back recharged and smash the cats/giants

    Thought we had an aura of confidence about us tonight that I haven’t seen before. Looked like we thought “ we got this “ all game. When we lost the 3rd quarter at another time we might have panicked. Not this Melbourne team. Their confidence gives me confidence we will win flag. 

    Always thought 94 and 98 got away from us, is this a better team?

    We are a very, very good football team, built for finals!  But you all know the drill, one week at a time! ……

    Bowey IMO is an unconditional IN. Leave him out and I'll create world war 4

    He burnt Petracca on the burst and played on unnecessarily. Again, not a great fan  but his positive outweighed his negatives..... tonight

    The 2 things I took out of that game:

    1. We are a great team.

    2. I’m convinced Rhys Mathieson is Dr D

    Rhys “Sandy Hook was a hoax” Mathieson.

    He’s an awful human.

    And the inability to rate his value objectively would be your problem, not his.

    So you're going to say that his decision making was 'worrying' based on one skill error? You must be a superhuman to play a whole game without any skill errors.

    I thought ANB's decision making was brilliant tonight. I rarely saw him miss a target.

    Brayshaw was huge for us tonight, and Rivers was desperate in defence and attacking in the rebound. Frisch take a bow with his clutch goals.

    Was anyone else shocked to see Neale had over 40 disposals?

    All bias aside I barely noticed him.

    There’s a reason we didn’t bother shutting him down. He was so ineffective. 
    Zorko having no impact was the key to us winning. Closely followed by Rich.

    As great as Nibbler was tonight., and I'm not a fan of him but am of his he work rate, his decision making worries me. Regardless, kudos to him. Well done nibbler.

    His decision making has been very good this season, 27 touch's, only 1 turn over, that's a excellent fantastic amazing game.

    • 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?
