    Birch

    Harris

    D Pearce

    Colvin

    Though I was there, I'm afraid I can't vote faithfully. Missed 1st quarter (see game day thread) and stood where full game appreciation is difficult - at true ground level, almost below most of the field's level, and mainly at north-end (scoring end and building shade) 'Grandstand' inaccessible, eastern wing 'stand' looking into the sun and heat.

    I'll watch the replay and will post then if that's acceptable and timely.

    And now done.

    Paxman's game better than I thought, just wilted towards the end?

    Lots of HMs - Heath, Goldrick, Zanker, Colvin, Hore, general-on-the-field D.Pearce, etc, and I reckon some of Fitzsimon's efforts might be credited to Hanks?😉, but I'll go with

    This was a hard one, I didn't feel anyone was outstanding so about 10 players could have snuck in for a vote.

    5 - Hanks
    4 - Harris
    3 - Paxman
    2 - Lampard
    1 - Pearce

    I'm with you there. I find giving votes difficult at the best of times, but this was tricky.

    We'll done, you two: AFLCA votes had Sarah Lampard high up. As a spectator, it's not always easy to appreciate a back's game.

    Doing the numbers, one coach had Lampy BOG and no votes from the other coach.  Dal Santo would have felt L Pearce was influential and on top all day so gave her the BOG 5 votes.  Don’t Dees rucks always dominate!  So Mick liked Sarah’s game. There were a few clangers in the windy conditions but she worked really hard and our backline needs her.

    I've been looking at the coaches votes each week and have found them puzzling. I couldn't have Harris as BOG, but she did play well. At least two of her shots at goal were from frees. I thought Hanks was BOG by a clear margin then Pearce etc. McNamara was terrific last week in spite of her early clangers (much like Lampard's this week) but didn't feature too highly in the votes.

    In the AFLCA votes, I'm usually agreeing and rarely surprised, but not so with the AFLW.

    Really want to shout out for Libby Birch.  Had another very good game and now a leader and key defender at the club. Love her style !!

    Another one to thank Daisy for. If memory serves, she had a part in getting Libby into footy from netball and then across to the Demons from the Bulldogs.

    • 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?
