    Out of sight, it’s amazing to see!! Skills, endurance and talking.

    Is that 18 out of the last 19 goals in a row to the demons?

    'Possession game'. They're surprised? Almost implying skills aren't up to it.

    Well, they are now! (except, maybe, still, handballing? But can't have everything!🙂)

    We’re looking sensational. First to the ball every time. Very stiff breeze here as well. Reckon the girls will traumatise the doggies just like the men did in the GF

    How outrageously talented is Daisy Pearce, what a star human.

    I’m so grateful that she was part of the AFL Grand Final coverage, not only because her analysis is the best in business but because she is a legend of our club.

    Devastating to see that one, what is it with the W and knees. 
     

    We need to get another goal here to capitalise with the wind.

    Did Selwood or Dangerfield get a run?

    Don’t know. Too busy watching out for the space where the gasometer used to be.

    Yes. Little bit of blazing away there - credit Dogs for better pressure. Expect Stinnear to be on top of that at 1/2 time - get back to 'our game'.

    Im at the ground and the wind is pretty light. Minimal advantage 

    Who did a knee?

    Tayla Harris has been pretty poor so far in terms of intensity and particularly failing to prevent defenders taking intercept marks

    Harder to judge her defensive work from the armchair but she has contributed offensively my my viewpoint.

    Bulldogs forward, Isabel Huntington. Her third acl 😞

    that is, if it is an acl. They just said hopefully it’s only a sprain.

    • 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?
